Razer has announced a bunch of new products at the CES 2023 event. The brand has announced the Razer Blade 16 and Blade 18 laptops alongside the Razer Leviathan V2 Pro Soundbar. The Leviathan V2 Pro is surely an innovative product launched by the brand at the event. It uses motion to track the user’s head and then optimizes the sound output accordingly. The soundbar is not meant for every day-to-day user, rather it’s aimed at providing compact, low-profile audio for PC gamers.
Razer says that the Leviathan V2 Pro,
developed in collaboration with THX and Audioscenic, can surround a user with
“3D audio” by fusing beamforming surround sound with head-tracking AI
technology. The soundbar can optimise sound by adjusting the audio beams to the
listener’s position in real-time thanks to an integrated IR camera that can
detect the user’s location. The 3D audio capability has two modes: THX Spatial
Audio Virtual Speakers for multi-channel audio that fills a room like a home
theatre system and THX Spatial Audio Virtual Headset for stereo material that
reportedly simulates positional audio commonly heard in headsets.
It also has configurable Chroma RGB
lighting effects spread across 30 distinct lighting zones. A subwoofer is also
included with the Razer Leviathan V2 Pro to improve bass. On the back of the
soundbar, there is a dedicated 3.5mm input for the subwoofer, a second 3.5mm
connection for headphones, a power adapter connector, and a single USB-C port
for connecting to your PC. The Leviathan V2 Pro is also Bluetooth 5.0
compatible.
Coming down to the price, the Razer
Leviathan V2 Pro is priced at a whopping US$ 399. The gadget will go on sale in
February 2023.
