    I just got the Razer Barracuda headset and I wanna get the most sound out of it.

    Now on the back the out ports work for all the wires but when I try to plug into the mic one on the back it doesn't. So I`m either suck with a mic that sounds like i`m miles away and great sound, Or i`m with a great mic and decent sound(just front speakers).

    It works on the front however but on the front there is only room for a front speaker. Is there a way around this?




    This is what it says in the owners manual about the ports

    1 microphone connector
    -Use the microphone connector to attach a personal computer microphone for voice or musical input into a sound or telephony program.

    Now the only line in connect on the back
    9 Line in connector
    -Use the (Blue) line-in connector to attach a record/playback device such as a cassette player,CD player, or VCR.
