razer leviathan v2 this is our bar here oh it feels cheap and plasticky of course okay we've got a nice braided usb cable here power brick two power cables probably for the subwoofer it comes with a subwoofer which is really quite nice and i guess this will be our support there we go look at that that is a nice little sub quite a quite a pleasant driver down here no covering on it which isn't the end of the world nice big bass reflex port there's a nice subtle embossed logo at the top it's not piano black which makes me very happy got a little rubberized feet that looks way too light it's pretty hefty honestly okay let's have a look at the main event the sound bar which does not feel quite as nice as this chap very light look at that it's nice and thin honestly look great sort of on your desk with your monitor above it four in the front two in the back so four channels razer claiming that it's a 7.1 system you're not allowed to count the subwoofer as a 7.1 because it's the 0.1 so it's a 6.1 ports on the back we've got power in usbc which is nice going to the computer i believe the previous version had usb-b which is kind of on the wayside everything's usb-c now it's awesome and then our proprietary little plug for the subwoofer nice they give you a cable for your computer got some end caps here green ends nice fabric cable ends are coming out of it already quite lengthy on the connection cable that could go off the back of the desk and sit on the floor nicely so i have no problems with that it's got bluetooth 5.2 it's claiming that they have a 60 millisecond response time and when we get the lab set up we'll be able to actually do real world testing of bluetooth audio latency if you're gaming you want low latency so that the sounds you hear in your game are actually happening when they are it's more important for controllers and stuff but it's really nice if you're playing rhythm games or other games that require very precisely timed inputs to match audio does have usb though so we'll probably be throwing it in through usb to the computer there's an app we get to try and set up all the RGB and equalizers and that sort of thing but for bluetooth audio and for just having it around as a bluetooth speaker or pairing your phone with it you know 60 milliseconds is totally fine it's got a couple different feats if you want to angle it right now it's sitting absolutely flat it looks rather elegant on the desk honestly these just sort of slide in there they're actually quite nice you can remove them completely and then it's got another four little feet on the bottom here so it can sit even lower to the desk yeah there we are so now it's firing upwards slightly at a nice angle yeah okay nice got a nice bundle of bananas you get them as a bulk deal no no well you'll just buy for the price of five five for the price of five order now at ShortCircuit dog no and your nice new sweater oh yeah where can i get this ltdstore.com if you buy it i get to stay employed one banana two banana about two and a half bananas long and maybe a half-ish banana deep it's a pretty beefy sound bar for just normal gamers i think this would be great for somebody who wants a much better desktop experience without having to go through the rigmarole of getting multiple speakers and having to worry about audio channels and extra power and all that sort of stuff this just has one cable that goes to your computer and then you have speakers and a sub they're claiming that it's got atmos support with the 3d sound all around you but to do that you really need dedicated speakers positioned around you i think it's just going to throw them to the side and fake it before we plug it in and see how it sounds here's a message from our sponsor thanks to

code Linus 50 for 50 off your annual subscription what's up gamers we're here at the ShortCircuit computer gaming desk to start gamering uh in all seriousness we have it set up in the center here i've got my sub on the left just so you can see it we'll try it on the floor as well i've got the angled feets because i'm a little bit above and i want it facing towards my ears you already know there's absolutely no chance whatsoever that you're going to like this why are you even trying it well because that man told me to oh it's thx certified yeah and they're saying it's like razer owns thx they do you didn't know that i didn't know that yeah that's good info yeah and it says everything from razer is thx certified well that's wonderful they can just slap that a label on there well no i think in theory they still operate independently mm-hmm that makes sense well it's 7.1 it has six speakers in it so that counts as a speaker and the point one to make seven shut up it does not does it no so it's a 6.1 system but they're labeling it as 7.1 can you explain that yeah the center channel is just the two front channels ah i i don't know i made that no that actually makes sense so they're combining two of the channels into speakers uh and they're all in front of us it seems disingenuous that's facial sound go just make it go to blink yeah that's a speaker bye you can already tell from the Windows test sound that it's not going to be good i'm excited i am not well our lovely soundbar thing comes with this program called razer synapse synapse synapse i'm synapse sure where we can enable all sorts of fun features let's get that full screen here thx spatial sound which Linus so generously enabled and we'll try it just in stereo mode first before we go to that and then our lighting mode so it does have RGB yeah let's play with some quick effects it's got spectrum cycling it's got breathing it does have multiple RGB leds in there it's not just one color that's kind of cool not really strong enough to show much under my desk we can adjust the audio through these very clicky buttons at the top oh yeah we got an eq we can enable center focus we'll try some music or maybe some videos does sound like four speakers it's punchy god well it's basically i'll give it that we do have a music equalizer open here so i'm going to set that to custom just everything flat and we'll play that same section again sounds like it's coming from the center here there's no spatial anything right now we do have it on stereo mode we'll try the spatial audio see if it widens it up the audio equalizer also does nothing i don't know if we have to set it to make it do that yeah nothing's changing nothing's changing i've got everything enabled i've got thx spatial audio center focus on i've been playing with the equalizer and nothing's happening i gave it what was that 10 15 30 seconds and it still sounds exactly the same bless that i've restarted the computer let's see if our settings are back let's go back and test more crab rave okay eq is working now good all of them sound like let's try our thx spatial audio combined with stereo here so this is stereo mode very bad thx spatial audio actually doesn't sound too bad it still sounds like it's all coming from here there's no way this is a 7.1 because i don't have any speakers behind me let's uh let's turn it around and see what these guys at the back are doing you know flat isn't too bad on thx spatial audio if i turn on center focus let's have a listen to that it puts out some power why don't we have a look and see what the sub does can we get that thumping well we're shaking boys one of the good things that i can say is that this is a nice long eq so you could probably adjust it i'm not hearing really any frequencies that it's lacking it's certainly not tuned right flat eq response is not where i would want it at all why don't we try a sign sweep really nice response from the low end that sub is helping a hell of a lot and i'm getting a lot of it from the back here too see those boys are moving some dips around 60. i don't know where the crossover point is but it sounds like it's a lot coming from both of these might not even need the sub honestly desk is shaking remember when we're doing sign sweeps we're looking for changes in volume at our current location in the sweep if we reduce the volume it shouldn't really affect anything so we've got some dips there big dip there around 1400 you'd have to spend ages fine tuning this to get all the volumes nice and even if you wanted something with a more flat response but you know we're playing games with this this isn't for making music you're going to use headphones or like proper dedicated monitors for that so shall we try some games with it yeah yeah okay the thumps are nice and thumpy do i gotta kill everything i'm just gonna disable the music because that's kind of taking over what i wanna hear for you know environmental sounds if they're positioned nicely no all the sounds come from here i don't even have enough stereo separation to figure out if they're on my left or if they're on my right let's head over into stereo mode and see if that improves things at all oh god god that is so bad oh my gosh okay well you need to have dhx spatial audio enabled for that i'll tell you that let's set it to game mode as well in the eq okay that sounds absolutely disgusting we've lost all the bass and the nice thumpy weapon that we've got there the doom sound design is like dude's my idol it's amazing yeah that's that's nice and punchy flat i don't know why they would think like game mode takes all the bass out of it why even give me a sub if you're just going to cut out 60ds of bass when the sounds are to my right they just sort of get quieter how much did you say this was 200 and 250 us dollars well that was awful i wouldn't want to play games using this certainly not a competitive shooter like counter strike i mean even that do maternal is a reaction based game and you need to know where the enemies are around you so that you can properly prioritize who you're gonna kill so bad bad out of bad let's try thumper this is a more straight line game rhythm game so we can make sure that there's no real latency or anything like that no latency this is this is easy to play there's absolutely no problems with this at all yeah no issues with that at all i'm getting a lot better sound field from thumper than i was do maternal so let's just go quickly back and check the audio settings because there may be a dolby atmos spy specific setting okay we're in the doom menu now and it looks like our only two options are speakers or headphones and these aren't headphones what's interesting to me is they're claiming 7.1 but it's not appearing as a multi-channel device in Windows Windows can only feed its stereo if you have a game or if you have a video that supports dolby atmos it's not going to register to Windows or your player that this is a dolby atmos compatible device dolby atmos is a special technology that has a digital imprint of a sphere around the listener if you want to think about it that way and then your device will just pick the speakers that you have so it's going to put the 3d audio in a line in front of your face if they weren't claiming to support all these features and were hyping it up so much i think it'd be easier on it for 250 bucks it's kind of a nice little thing to have on your desk this is the world's first object-based cinematic audio with powerful moving audio that transcends from channels to moving around you with 10-point accuracy that's not too bad that's not too bad at all it doesn't go behind me like they're saying but you know the wall is all the way over there and i'm sitting here so there's not really anything to bounce off of and what are you going to bounce off it anyway but stereo separation for that was actually quite good i don't know what the speaker layout in here is like i don't think we can rip it open unless we get a hacksaw but not not that bad not 7.1 but certainly stereo i don't think i could recommend this to anybody it's rather too expensive it's very very close in here if you're playing games i would want speakers over here so that i could get better stereo separation so that i could understand where the things to shoot at are the sub is kind of small and anemic and most of the sub bass seems to be handled by the ones at the back anyway if i was a gamer i wouldn't want to play games with this and if i was a content creator i wouldn't want to edit or listen to music or videos with this i don't know it's uh it's a waste of money and uh it's a terrible product thanks for watching me terror apart another one of these horrible horrible sound bars if you want to look at some other crap that razer's made adams made a great video on a pair of headphones that were also trash and far too expensive so subscribe
