Perfect. With some knowledge.

This is what I need to share my audio with HyperX Cloud II. It's amazing to actually have. Not only do My Clouds sound better than the factory sound card, the surround sound is clearer, and the ability to adjust the EQ and fine-tune the sound is perfect for your ears. It's perfect for any game. The splitting of the chat/game volume works perfectly. The one-click switch from stereo to surround sound and the ability to save 4 custom presets to change the equalizer is just perfect. Read up a bit…

Pros
  • Game: Voice Balance allows you to easily adjust the balance between game audio and voice chat.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Dolby Metallic Sound

Mixer works great when using headphones + ModMic with PS4. However, the Dolby feature is useless to me as the voices in it sound very metallic/empty/reverberant. This seems to be a known issue with all mixamps hosted on the internet. This works well if you disable Dolby. No reverberation and very good processing quality. For me it was a very expensive solution for what I needed. Until the metallic sound is fixed I don't recommend it.

Pros
  • USB Sound Card Functionality: USB Sound Card Functionality with Game: Voice Balance, Playback and Voice Streaming for PC Gamers; No optical connection required
Cons
  • Reliability

GARBAGE IN A FEW WEEKS!

People should read this! To be honest I've never had a problem with the technology I buy, but it has pissed me off for some reason, like how it even managed to start selling without testing EVERYTHING, me I have no idea. and one more thing, the gen 3 mixamp is so much better than that crap. So I bought that and upgraded the mixamp (mind you, since I have a 3rd gen mixamp I didn't have to change cables, I just plugged them in after the upgrade and was able to play right away) and everything has…

Pros
  • Dolby Sound: Dolby Sound provides cinematic sound in 3D games and delivers Dolby Sound to a streaming audience.
Cons
  • Empty

Great amp! best for Mac

The sound quality of this amplifier is impressive. It's also a great elegant look. It's great that you have control over the equalizer and a great community for those who don't know how to tweak equalizer. I never thought it was worth buying an amp. A good headset usually fits me. After my old headset stopped working, I struggled to find a good full-featured gaming kit with good sound quality and lag-free self-hearing (mic monitoring) functionality. I tested about 10 different headphones in the

Pros
  • Custom Stream Output: Control what your stream audience hears, including chat and game audio levels; Dolby Surround 2-channel streaming output
Cons
  • Low repairability

Significantly better audio quality and latency than previous models

both for PS4/PC. They've always worked well, but I've never been blown away by their sound. After reading a very positive MixAmp review 2019 on RTings dot com I decided to give it a try. For reference I use the following headphones with MixAmp: - HyperX Cloud PS4 (41 ohms) - AKG GHS-1 (32 ohms) - Sony MDR-V700DJ (24 ohms) - AKG K 518 LE (32 ohms) So nothing super high - End or particularly neutral ones, but all have excellent impedance matching and their sonic qualities are very favorable for…

Pros
  • Game: Voice Balance makes it easy to adjust the ratio of in-game audio to voice chat
Cons
  • Some minor tweaks
