    The Vaper Where did the mean Discord touch you? That level of bias suggests it's something wrong on your end. I myself have used both, Skype especially for years, and Discord has been improving a lot over the past year. Skype used to be good, but it has been getting worse, especially on Windows 7. And voice chat sounds worse on Discord? Really? I think you mean to say that Skype voice chat sounds slightly muddy and artificially bassy, while Discord voice is quite clear and gives you lots of control over volumes and input sensitivities.

    I just picked up these HyperX Cloud Alpha's and they are amazing. This is the first time i am using any HyperX Headset. My previous headsets have beeen Steelseries SIberia V2 NaVi Edition. The Razer Blacksharks 2.0 and the Logitech G633's. Logitech's and Razer's have their own nice feautures but overall out of those 3 mentioned headsets i prefered the Steelseries V2 (which is pretty old by now) HyperX Cloud Alpha's is by far. And i mean by very far. The best headset i have ever had. I got them today. I tested CS and PUBG and Music and A Movie. I mean gg... Also i like this Company. They are kinda Honset and they don't go like "Our headset is all this!" And then it's not. This headset is all of what they say and even more. Razer advertise their products to be amazing, but ye whatever. I don't like Razer headsets. I was very very dissapointed with Logitech when i tried the G633's. I really like Logitech as a company i have a Logitech Mouse and Keyboard, so i expected their headset to be amazing. It was Good - Fine. But far from Amazing in terms of Comfort and sound quality. The fabric on the ear pads is absolute trash and i hate it. HyperX Cloud Alpha are amazing. Best headset and i recommend them to all gamers. Also to people who say that "They don't have 7.1" To you i say: My dear friend. You have no idea that you have been brainwashed. 7.1 in a 2 driver headset is a scam. It runs through software and it is really really bad. See the thing you think you get with virtual 7.1 You already have with a good headset. Actually Virtual 7.1 gives you bad sound on top and worse directional hearing. So stay far away from it. I was a 7.1 hunter in headsets for a long while untill i actually started testing it and researched it.

    As a fan of the original Cloud and Cloud II, I'm happy to see Kingston go back to that design, over their previous more gaming headset look, I would prefer a Black and Grey look but maybe later. The biggest selling point for me is the in-line volume and mic mute, this is something I've wanted in a Cloud headset for a while, though it's a shame they no longer include the velour earpads, I'm not a big fan of leatherette earpads, as they do get uncomfortable.

    I've had the Cloud II's for about 3 years now, use them as my work headphones; 8 hours a day, 5 days a week listening to podcasts, music, youtube. They sound great and are super comfy. I personally prefer the velour pads on the Cloud II's. But if the alphas are anything like their previous sets.....if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Sennheiser uses the same driver for most if not all of their gaming branded headsets then change the DSP and enclosure. You really think they are going to redesign a driver and enclosure that’s worked for them for years?

    Typing with the Alphas as of now. The sound is superb and vastly superior compared to my last 2 headsets (Sony Gold wireless and turtle beach stealth 600)....the bass is kinda high compared to other headsets, but it is not exaggerated by any means, which makes them sound way good for gaming and music. The volume can get really high. The sound isolation is one of the greatest I have experienced, I literally cannot hear myself talking or typing while gaming or listening to music. The detachable mic and plug cord will guarantee these will last years, you just exchange it and that's it. These are PC aimed headsets, so if you buy them for PS4 or XBOX you are wasting money since the controller is not powerful enough to drive these, resulting in shitty and low sound compared to PC. Better get some those specifically made for consoles. So guys...I am gonna clarify this ear pain issue that some people talk about. The headset is indeed REALLY comfortable. The ear pads are really soft, but the thing is...they may not be thick enough if you have big ears. If you have middle sized ears like mine, you will slightly feel a part of your ears leaned against the foam layer of the drivers, which I think are thick enough. It does not feel like you ears are getting crushed against the drivers tho, just like a gentle lean. Even after hours of use, it does not feel uncomfortable by any means... The problem is not COMFORT, but CLAMPING FORCE. To achieve the desired sound isolation, the pressure they put on you is considerable. At first you may not notice them as the discomfort is gradual, but after a couple of hours you will have to take them off, rest for 10 minutes, and continue. You even feel relieved when you take them off, which is bad imho. I hear Cloud II and Revolver S do not have this issue as much as this one. It is not as horrible as it sounds tho, for the sound they are way worth it. Some people whine too much. If you've got big ears...you may be well f%cked. There you have 2 options, contact Hyperx customer support and ask them to send thicker ear pads (and they will), which based on the comments solves the issue, or buy the brainwavs hm5 from amazon, which will make them way more comfortable and solve the issue also, but will slightly downgrade sound quality and isolation. I have not tried this yet myself, but plan to. If I do I will edit this in the future. TL;DR -Get them if you have small or middle sized ears -Buy or ask Hyperx to send thicker ear pads if you've got big ears -Getting new ear pads will also solve clamping force

    Hey nice review. Just bought the Alpha Cloud too and I'm pretty happy with it. I'm very surprised no one is complaining about the lack of separate control for volume chat/ game sound. How come lower headset version had it and not this one anymore. For instance I'm also playing Battlefield 1 on PS4, most of the time I can barely listen to my team because of booming etc. Is there any additional setup we can do? Thx for the answer

    Suisiders So far sound wise, better, the size can go bigger than the Cores, the added mute button and volume wheel was needed and great. The Mic is fantastic for blocking background sound. Also the Mic is alot less flimsy, it seems The connector is alot better quality. The only issue I have is the stitches on the cushions aggravated me at first, but once I wore them for a week that issue has went away. I hear directional sound better and the bass is there comparing to the Cores that imo lacked bass.

I'm thinking to get these headphones but some people have been saying that your friends can hear what you're listening to as the mic picks up audio from the headset too. So during gaming they can hear the game from my headset as well. Now idk if this is true or not, the headset is closed back and the microphone is noise cancelling but is this true?

HyperX sent me the cable for free! I am really happy with this headset, I still use it almost everyday. The only thing is that ear pads wore off a bit, but i would say that after 2 and a half years the damage is still minor. Enjoy your new headset, whichever you buy, all hyperX producs are top notch quality.

More bass would make the game sound more immersive, and just because he doesn't care about hearing the enemy's footsteps hes not qualified to be a gamer? What kind of logic is that? What qualifies someone as a gamer? What's even more stupid is the fact that you down voted the video for that, completely missing the point of the review in the first place. What a dumbass you are.
