Since it is close to being placed on the computer desktop, be sure to replace it with a foot pad that raises the elevation angle, so as to get the best listening experience!
I even put it in the 65-inch front of the bedroom and use it as a sound system for the TV. I found that this can effectively improve the original sound of the TV.
Most smart TVs now have Bluetooth output, so you can use Bluetooth input to connect the sound effects from the TV

RAZER Leviathan V2 Experience Summary
To be honest, I didn’t have too much “expectation” for this set of speakers at first. After all, I have tested countless speakers of such a small size soundbar. In the past, the feedback I got was that the low frequency was not strong enough, the sound was muddy enough, there was no sound field, and there was no sound. Details.. Wait for feedback, of course, what you pay for is still a general feedback. After I tested the RAZER Leviathan V2 for a long time, I became more and more excited. I never thought that the sound field it brings can be so open and the low frequency impact is so excellent. When playing racing, shooting or watching When it comes to action movies, the coolness can be said to be so high that it breaks the table!
There are often characters talking in movies or dramas. The Soundbar of RAZER Leviathan V2 has very good midrange feedback. Listening to human voices is like being in a movie theater, and the sound field of instant explosions or moving objects is also very immersive. This is definitely most of the same type of products within 10,000 yuan, and it cannot surpass the comparable effect! For example, in Star Wars movies, the sense of movement of fighter planes from all directions, and the sound of gunfire and shelling are very close to the home theater system I use in my living room, because the details are more prominent when listening to the scene!
So what regarding the performance of listening to music? Of course, this soundbar-style sound is not as good as the stereo sound field brought by the 2-piece (two-channel) (but it depends on the price), but the interesting thing is that when I play the Dolby Atmos in Apple Music, Whether it is vocals or sound effects, it feels very good!
Of course, if you like to use lighting effects to create a space atmosphere, the rich RGB lighting effects of RAZER Leviathan V2 can be controlled by mobile app or computer, and can also be linked with all Razer devices, using the Razer Chroma RGB function, you can use countless Combinations to create dynamic in-game lighting effects!
