Review on HyperX Cloud Alpha S - Ultimate PC Gaming Headset: 7.1 Surround Sound, Adjustable Bass, Dual Chamber Drivers & More in Blackout Design by Michal Wasowicz

There are pros, but thecomns outweigh thecomns. Extremely hyped model, which is not true. What did you like. Made with high quality, they sit just fine, the ears do not get tired, everything is at the highest level. Lightweight, does not get tired. What did not like and why 2 stars. I took headphones for both games and music, I watched a lot of reviews. And the problem with the most important thing, with the sound. I myself am the owner of a powerful external sound card, Sound Blaster x7 Limited Edition. Icomnnected both to it in direct mode and in normal mode. I also tried via USB via the supplied sound card. Sound 7.1 did not turn on because it's purely marketing and bucket. I tried the physical basscomntrols in different positions. Everywhere the problem is one, terrible sound. All sounds become muffled, there is not enough detail, crystallinity, some tones and sounds are swallowed, the bottoms are not very pleasant, not deep, not detailed, sometimes highs do not pull. In general, the sound is similar to a muffled gurgling, it is not bad, but not natural, it is extremely unpleasant to listen to music. The sounds are indistinct, as if throughcomtton wool, not clear. I did not expect this from headphones for 10k, in terms of sound level, like ears for 1-2k, neither this nor that. They didn’t even put a splitter for such a price, there are separate channels for a microphone and headphones on the sound card. The wire is very short, there is a long one with a built-in sound card, which is terrible. The microphone itself is also terrible, similarly makes the voice muffled and indistinct, quiet. In total, for 10K you get a beautiful toy, but not a headset. There is simply no sound, the microphone is average, poor equipment, shortcomrd. Before that, the Razer Kraken Pro sound was MUCH better, but busted with bass. And he took at that time for 7k. They served 3 years, then they wore out and now I decided to buy new ears. Now I'm going to take it back and look at other options. If you have a good sound card, I do not advise! Just watch this video, rewind to 4:30 ( ), and you will understand how alpha s swallows sound.
