Razer Nommo Pro
Aural power at your fingertips.
It’s fast becoming one of the best gaming speaker systems, in our humble opinion.
This2.1 sound system is so impressive — surprisingly good for one that is being sold as a gaming speaker — that we’ve forgotten the fact that it sets you back $849) That’s a high price tag for a set of gaming speakers, yes. But these are no ordinary gaming speakers.
It starts with its design. Both its two satellites and its subwoofer boast a matte black finish and an overall gamer’s look that’s subtle while still making a statement with RGB lighting that’s not too flashy and not too loud. They’re also neither overly big nor heavy; in fact, it’s surprisingly light for a non-portable speaker system.
The Razer Nommo Pro isn’t packed with all the bells and whistles, but that’s the beauty of it – its best features are in its performance, and the small number of extras it does have address your exact needs.
Nommo Pro’s best feature is its app, also called NommoPro, which is available for both iOS and Android devices. It doesn’t offer as many controls as the software – the lighting control, for example, is not as specific and detailed, but it does most of the things that the Razer Synapse can do. Plus, it has a very simple UI and it lets you control it when you’re across the room.
There’s not much to it; the setup is pretty straightforward. It’s a plug and play so besides installing the Synapse software and downloading the app, you just really need to link the satellites with the sub, connect your input, plug it in, and turn it on.
The Razer Nommo Pro boasts a lot of volume (small home theaterlevel, in fact), a subwoofer that has a lot of rumble, a wide soundstage, an excellent EQ, and of course, near audiophile-level sound quality. It’s fast becoming one of the best gaming speaker systems, in our humble opinion.
Really, the only thing that’s keeping it from being an audiophile quality speaker system is the fact that because of its warm, smooth sound, they’re not the most detailed-sounding speakers. It’s great for gaming, watching movies, and listening to music; however, it’s probably not the best ones to use for editing and producing.
These speakers have a lot of power and can be thundering, but they’re directional so you turn up the volume in one room and won’t have to worry about disturbing others in the next room.
Not only do the Nommo Pro speakers offer a lot of power, it also produces a sound quality and a soundstage that audiophiles will appreciate. And even if it’s not quite in that level, it’s pretty damn close to it. Then there’s the mobile app, which allows you to customize a number of settings using your mobile device for convenience.
If you’re a serious gamer that takes sound and gaming immersion seriously, this is the 2.1 speaker system you’ve been waiting for.
