If I want to buy these as a gift for my boyfriend, should I also buy something to convert the two separate jacks to a single USB?

It comes with the converter that is also from razer, make sure you tell him to grab razer surround software once he gets the headset

Depends on what he's looking for... It had a headphone jack so as long as his monitor or tv whatever he is playing on has a headphone jack it will work or you can always buy a mix amp as well

The Krakens come with a 3.5mm TRRS plug for cell phones and an adapter for PC. If you desperately need to use it in a USB port, you can buy a USB soundcard and plug the Pink and Green plugs into the corresponding slots on the card. However, most computers come with either front panel HD audio with a Green headphone jack and Pink microphone jack or the same jacks on the back of the computer on the motherboards rear I/O.

Yes, you would have to buy, because the kraken, come with a single Jack/P2 and an adapter to separate the micro of the audio.

It shouldn't make any difference. They'll probably come in separate boxes either way. Get whatever is most economical. I got mine used/reconditioned. Who knows if they came off the same line. I absolutely love them though. So many new dimensions of sonic pleasure. You won't be disappointed.

You can't daisy chain these drives since they only have one usb port. Both must be connected to your computer at the same time in order to transfer data from one another

I do not know if that would work or not. I have only been using one. My inclination is that it would not work because with the Windows control panel under "Sound and Audio" devices, it usually only allows one main audio output device to be assigned to one of the USB ports. Hope that helps. Dave

I have never tried that, I have bought several different brands of these kits and they usually work for one of the 7 or 8 things they offer and if it was the one you needed that would be great. I would say you would be better to buy a dual ended male usb cable you probably would you will get your money back.

Hello and thank you for your question. The USB Solution is a separate purchase.

The USB is for power only. Not for sound transmission. Optical is your only means of getting sound from the source, to your headphones.

Pop the USB end off them and use this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008YOFLXU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3FW43KUZDI219&coliid=I30EFEZFQCBUG8

i honestly wouldn't recommend you purchasing this product at all, is just a total waste of time and money. you will be lucky if two usb port work on this thing.

You will need a USB end with two male jacks. One to plug into your power source and another to plug into one speaker. If you bought it new, there should be be one without a cord in your box. Hope this helps the cause!

Yes, if both are USB compatible. We use them for everything, merely an extension cord, if you will, but with USB ports.

Any USB 2.0 standard Type A male to B male, like this one (color doesn't matter): http://www.sfcable.com/UB12-10-CLR.html

as long as you have one USB jack available you are good to go! BTW everyone its been several months now with the audiohub and it still absolutely rocks for movies and music, I couldn't be happier and I've been called an audio snob if that matters :)

Actually, Magpie, the jack plugs into the (green) 1/8" port where the speakers would normally go. I'm pretty sure the USB is only for power. One not, though... this combined cable is INCREDIBLY SHORT. As in... unnecessarily short. Come on, Satechi... spring for an extra couple feet of cable so the speakers aren't tethered within 3ft. of the tower!

They come with a usb/audio combination cord. Basically you don't need to get anything else unless you want a usb extender or audio jack extender cable for more reach.

Yes. No problem. It will be obvious when you examine the cords. Only one will work.

Exactly, it'll only be single-function unless your PC has a jack that accepts dual-function devices. Most PCs do not have jacks capable of this. However, there are splitters or mergers (not sure what too look for) where you could input your Ink'd earbuds and then have them go separately into a mic input and audio output (http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-5mm-1-8-Stereo-Female-Mini-Jack-to-2-Male-RCA-Plug-Adapter-Audio-Y-Cable-/261215421433?pt=US_Video_Cables_Adapters&hash;=item3cd1a703f9). Worth a try, but I'm not 100% it would work.
