The result is killer PC speakers ideal for gaming, wasting time on YouTube, or watching a movie.
Ive been a fan of Razers Nommo speakers since they were released in 2018.
I feared Razer gave up on the line, especially with its new and highly innovative Leviathan V2sound bar.

Razer Nommo V2 lineup
Razer has a range of Nommo V2 speakers that just launched.
Razer Nommo V2 Pro speaker driver.
The V2 Pro is the top-of-the-line, featuring wireless connectivity, a subwoofer, and Chroma lighting.
No matter which one you choose, you’ll get THX Spatial Audio and cross-platform compatibility.
Razer is currently taking preorders for all three versions.
The new $50 Wireless Control Pod wont be available worldwide until August 2023.
The V2 Pro and V2 have Razer Chroma backlighting, whereas the V2 X does not.
That said, the subwoofer still needs power and has its mini plug for AC.
The front and rear of the Razer Nommo V2 Pro main speakers including rear RGB projection.
Likewise, as the name implies, the Razer Wireless Control Pod has no cords.
That was pretty cool.
Razer gives enough configs to give users control over the Nommo V2 Pro without overwhelming them.
Don’t forget to update your speaker’s firmware? OK
Oddly enough, however, this slider recently disappeared from Synapse, so Im not sure what happened there.
Users can also switch to Bluetooth for other connected devices, including your phone as another input source.
This means the lighting projects out the back of the speaker, presumably against your wall.
10-band EQ and presets for Nommo V2 Pro.
Of course, it’s possible for you to also use Razers various presets or customize the lights yourself.
Its like Razer read my mind.
The Wireless Control Pod acts as a giant volume knob.
Razer Synapse V3 settings for the Nommo V2 Pro.
This new version is much more convenient and way more customizable.
Regarding audio quality and sound … well, its fantastic.
The subwoofer packs a punch that can shake your room and make something you feel.
My Nommo V1 Pro & Hue Bloom setup vs. new Nommo V2 Pro without Bloom.
This ability is due to the simulated 7.1 THX software experience from a 2.1 hardware setup.
What about theLeviathan V2 Pro?
However, with the Nommos movable speakers, I can put them anywhere and adjust them on the fly.
The new Razer Wireless Control Pod comes with the Nommo V2 Pro or can be bought separately for $50.
TheRazer Nommo Pro (V1)are still available, but Amazon has them for $550.
Now, if they drop to $400 or lower, I would still consider them a good buy.
While they lack THX and better RGB, the sound is still fantastic, which is what really matters.
Smaller: Razer Nommo V2 Pro (L) vs. Nommo V1 Pro (right).
Razers $400Leviathan V2 Prois also a good alternative that Im sure Razer wouldnt mind if you chose instead.
Its also $50 cheaper.
Razer Nommo V2 Pro: Should you buy?
Small but mighty.
If you do, you wont be disappointed.
Is the Nommo V2 Pro worth the upgrade over the original Nommo Pro?
Im not convinced they are.
Razer’s excellent down-firing wireless subwoofer will rumble.
Those are still fantastic, and I wouldnt toss them in the garbage for these.
Besides the higher-than-average price, are there any downsides?
The fun engineering of the Razer team with the technical and audio prowess of THX shines in these speakers.
Rear inputs on the right Nommo V2 Pro driver.
It’s a safe bet I’ll stick with the Razer Nommo V2 Pro for the next 5 years.
Razer’s $400 Leviathan V2 Pro is damn awesome (if you like soundbars).
Razer Nommo V2 Pro is certainly clean and minimalist.
