Razer Seiren V3 Mini Review / Test

Video & HQ Audio:  https://podcastage.com/rev/v3mini

Today I review the Razer Seiren V3 Mini. This is similar to the original Seiren Mini, but with the addition of a capacitive mute button and improved conversion up to 24-bit 96kHz. The sound is slightly V-shaped with a bit of bass/low mid support, and a very exagerated treble region which leads to the mids sounding recessed and non-dominant.
