Like the terrible reviewer I am, I forgot to add in sound quality LOL (It happens) Here it is: It is awesome. To me, it was the right amount of bass and highs. Mids not as noticeable like in most gaming headphones. I used my Sennhesier 598 SE as my reference. The sound quality is awesome and because the earcups cup your ears so well, the isolation is fantastic for something that doesn't have ANC. Sound quality is definitely not something you'll have to worry about :) Cheers!

@@koyoshima45 Hey, if you care about bass, look into ISK HD9999 or ISK MDH9000. The second ones are more bassy, but the first ones are greater overall and already have a noticeable V signature. They are also noticeably better than HyperX Cloud Alpha, I tested both.

2:30 I can DEFINITELY agree as me and my family used to have like 10 (legit) 10-20$ headphones which all had fallen off the table while attached to a tablet / phone, so they broke. I have now got 50$ Skullcandy Grind's and they have this and I love that idea, looking forward for the HyperX Cloud Alpha. Awesome review thing though ;) Cheers!

An old review I know but I recently bought these - the sound quality is so much better than my previous Turtle Beach 600 Stealth
I too, love the traditional headset design-makes me feel like a bad ass. 😉 HyperX is leagues ahead of the competition in terms of price to performance.
I mean, each headset shines in its own way, but overall this is definitely the most solid option
I have this headset and LOVE it. I also recommend the Brainwavz Replacement Memory Foam Earpads, I have very large ears and these are almost necessary.

@Korvus I'm sure of it, and for me the replaceable cable makes it SUPER worth it. My headset in the past would break every 5 to 6 months because the cord wore out so I had to buy a 12-month warranty on it every time I got the replacement. These are great as the original cord that came with them broke so I just bought a cheap TRRS cable (a cable with a mic line in it as well as the stereo lines). The original cord was great quality though and I broke it in a stupid way (I dropped the headset and it pulled on the cord and basically bent the connector). The build quality of the headphones is great and I am still using these. So I definitely recommend them.
I bought these over a year ago , my 1st pair of Hyper X cans, I absolutely love them, I bought a pair of Revolvers today but didn’t try them yet, I’m sure they will rock to!!! Like to have options, great video

Great review and all But you forgot to talk about the sound quality
there is excatly one thing on that headset that drove me crazy: That volume adjuster knob has a much larger diameter than the cable and is right on the hight of most tables. Therefore it will constantly get stuck on the table top when it is hanging down straight. I put a piece of shrink tube over it to make it slide over the tabletop edge.
great review man. I just got the Cloud 2 and I love them. I agree that I wish the cloud 2 had the detachable cable. But I will say that the Cloud 2 does come with a better carrying/ storage bag.

Is this headset good....does it sound good on ps4???
Mine broke in under a year because of the cord, mic was also always picking up sounds from KZread or games I was playing which is extremely obnoxious. Never mistreated them whatsoever.
I subbed because i liked how you did the video, by far it felt like you paid a lot of attention to the video and the video just felt good in general to watch... I've been doing a lot of research on the internet and reviews/reddits etc and there is a common complaint that while using the microphone in-game sounds will be heard by people in voicechat programs like discord while using microphone.... So while the microphone quality just using the headset is good, supposedly the microphone quality while playing a game (which is when most of us will be using it) somehow picks up what you are listening to in-game. You have any thoughts or knowledge on this common complaint?
I have cloud alphas, and i love them.
i just bought mine and this came in recomended.
I had these for over a year now.
I have this headset 1 month and I have to say its beast!
You're right about the removable cable. I'm fed up of breaking headsets by having cables coming off the internals by an accidental tug or the cable catching on something. That alone will have me going for these. Shame about the lack of 7.1 and non-changeable ear pads.

Better than the Sennhieser GSP 300??? I don’t know what to get !
which should i buy Cloud Alpha or Sennheisers GSP300
But where are the velour earpads. Honestly after trying them in the Cloud II's I can't wear leather anymore.
Does the alpha have 7.1 surround? I was think about getting the cloud 2s and now I saw this, one of the main reasons I wanted the cloud twos was the 7.1 surround with the sound card on the wire. I just wanna know if the alphas have that as well.
These or the MH752's? Any comment on that headset?
I just bought Cloud Alpha yesterday and it has really good quality sound cause i tested Cloud II too in a tech market it has difference. But I have little cons about Alpha, it has a clamp force on just bottom of my ear and jaws. It is of pressure a lil bit and that makes me feel uncomfortable. I cant be sure it goes off ? Cloud II had more comfort. Will it go off
I agree. Because I have them.
I hope someone sees this, I’m not sure if I should get this or the Cloud II. I’m a gamer who usually plays games like CoD and battle royales so I need to have good sound to hear footsteps and movement, which headset should I get?
Yo, just got my alphas and i feel like one of the earcups is more "sound-proof"/sound isolated than the other. Does anyone else have this "problem"?
is this the ones with mesh drivers instead of plastic
Check game settings to make it loud on ps4
is it worth buying the alpha?
I would HIGHLY recommend that people buy replacement ear pads for these. The ear pads wear down pretty quick and the speaker inside each ear cup is larger than what was inside the could 1 and 2. So if you have large ears like I do, those speakers will chafe and hurt your ears over time. Other than that, this headset is great.
I need know which one is better HyperX cloud 2 HyperX cloud Alpha Or HyperX cloud stringer core wireless
I got this but the mic wouldn't work with my computer... Nothing I put the mic cable into registers it as my mic.
Only bad thing is you dont get a chat mix for things like a ps4
I enjoyed this headset but the one con that I could not deal with, was they just did not fit me comfortably. I have a big head so they felt tight and would give me headaches.
Nice review
hi what would you say is the best ones out of these ones and the cloud x revolver gears of war headset
Is this good for FPS games?
I don't know if you would reply or not but how do these compare to Logitech G Pro? I am Planning on getting that cause where I live, it's way cheaper than these right now?
One thing that worries me are those little cables between the headband and the earcups. Do they break easily? Like i had one headphones with those tiny cables and now they are broken.
@Romsicle
5 жыл бұрын
Considering how long they and how they're braided, it shouldn't break easily. It's long enough for the earcups to swivel at maximum angles and still have some slack. Unless it catches onto something and is forcefully pulled, there's no reason it'll break on you for regular use.

as far as hearing footsteps they are okay can be improved using eq however the location is not the greatest sometimes the sound signature is ambigous like you can tell they are on the left but not exactly where they are. I got them for £30 so it was really good another problem i had with these headphones that people could hear your headphones sometimes which is really annoying.
Is this headset have punchy bass?
Xbox one. Party chat people heard echo through my set. I factory reset Xbox (per tech support). Then people heard static when I talked (no echo). The static went away when I plugged in "puck". Don't get why putting 3.5mm on controller if I have to use puck anyway. Any thoughts?
a openback headphone with much greater soundstage and imaging like the hd600 would be alot better for gaming yeah.

Bass = low frequencies Footsteps = high frequencies (treble) Clouds are treble focused and can't handle bass Currently idk about the alpha, but the cloud 2 has 9khz spike @ 100dB, it makes ME sick cause I'm sensitive to highs. I recommend you buy a natural sounding headphone, if possible an open-back one with flat frequency response (sennheiser, audio technica, beyerdynamic, audeze, hifiman, monoprice...)
