This is how the Razer Piranha looks like:
Design wise Piranha surely justifies its name – the headphones are stylish and look quite "carnivorous" with their edgy looks. The speaker cups are small, and bare the Razer logo on the outside.

You must have noticed already that there is an USB hanging at the end of the cable. Sorry, you're are about to be disappointed - no integrated digital decoder, the USB merely provides the means of illuminating the Razer logos on the headphones and the remote:
