Razer have announced a brand new set of wireless headsets that are compatible with the Xbox 360 as well as other devices. Coming in two flavors, the Chimaera 5.1 Surround Sound and Chimaera Stereo, these headsets focus on audio quality and communication while cutting the cords. While the set is designed to work for the Xbox 360, the base station contains many standard input jacks allowing you to hook the cans up to your PC or other devices.
One unique feature on the 5.1 model is the ability to create a custom channel for dedicated voice chat by connecting up to four base stations together. Now your Left 4 Dead 2 LAN parties won't have to wake up baby Sally and you dont' have to worry about running a Teamspeak server either!
