Audio is becoming an increasingly competitive space on Windows PCs with companies forging partnerships with Bang & Olufsen, Dolby, Waves MaxxAudio, and more. Razer is now getting in on the action with its $20 THX Spatial Audio app today for Windows 10, which is available starting today with a free demo.
How does THX Spatial Audio stack up against Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, and Windows Sonic? Surprisingly well, especially for customization and headphone support.
Razer THX Spatial Audio is a new software suite that provides stereo and spatial surround sound through headphones on your Windows 10 PC. The software enhances the audio experience by simulating 7.1 surround sound even from headphones that only have two speakers. (Razer owns THX, but it operates independently from the gaming and laptop company.)
On Windows 10, there are numerous competing options for similar technology, including Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, and Windows Sonic. Windows Sonic is built into Windows 10 and is free (and is also the least impressive). The codecs from Dolby costs $15, and DTS is $20, by comparison. Razer is charging $20 for its THX Spatial Audio app, which has a free demo.
The main features of THX Spatial Audio are:
•Superior Positional Accuracy from all sources: With sound that goes beyond 7.1 for more precise positional localization
•THX tuned: Creating a lifelike, realistic cinematic-quality sound stage
•Surround Sound Calibration: Providing the most accurate positional audio, based upon on personalized hearing preferences
Users can grab the software directly from Razer to install it and try it out. You'll need a Razer account to log in, but you can use Google, Facebook, or Twitch credentials too.
Once installed and set up, you can simply choose THX Spatial Audio as your output. Within the THX Spatial Audio App, you pick which headphones you would like to use and configure.
Even though Razer is putting out the software, it works with any headphones from any manufacturer. It doesn't matter if you're using Surface Earbuds or Marshall Monitor II ANC they will all work.

Within the app itself, you have four sections: audio, EQ, calibration, and demo. That last one – demo – is just a simple video for THX that provides an excellent video and audio source to demonstrate the spatial surround effect.
Besides the EQ, there are also toggles for bass boost, voice clarity, and sound normalization. These all provide noticeable changes when applied, and I prefer to leave the bass boost on most of the time. Audio normalization is perfect for listening to music from various sources so that the volume does not dramatically fluctuate. Voice clarity is useful for spoken word or even productivity settings like Microsoft Teams or Skype calls.
I use DTS Headphone:X on most of my PCs. Up until now, I considered it the best of the bunch. But Razer THX Spatial Audio is simply more potent than DTS.
It is important to stress that most users on Windows 10 do not have access to premium audio software enhancements. That means no EQ or even surround settings. While DTS Headphone:X provides an excellent sound stage, Razer provides the following features over it:
•10-band EQ
•Spatial surround settings/calibration
•Supports Bluetooth and USB Audio
•Toggles for bass boost, voice clarity, and sound normalization
