Razer Opus (2020) - ranked #63 of 517 Over-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 4.2/5

#63 Razer Opus (2020): $199.99 Wireless Discontinued eBay

Pros: THX certified wireless ANC headphones with a high preference score of 87, bass reaching 20 Hz and a 3.5 mm wired input. Battery life is 25 hours with ANC on, and they weigh 265 g.

Cons: Discontinued, so Amazon only sells renewed units. A 6.5 dB dip near 4.2 kHz and a 5 dB peak near 8.4 kHz make the treble uneven, the bright tilt (plus 0.36) can sound lean in bass, and the score rests on a single measurement.

Frequency Response

How the Razer Opus (2020) measures across the audible range, against the Harman over-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is a single measurement, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
