The most comfortable headphones in the world

Many Astro A40, A50, AKG 7XX headphones, Sony Gold Headset and Planutain are tired. I have just received it. As soon as I opened it and tried it on, I felt that this headset was light and put a little pressure on my ears. I don't feel any pain in my ears or at head level but this headset is so good it can beat other headphones I've had. It's no joke, Astro has great sound but their headphones are heavy and after 3 hours of play they will be uncomfortable. I wear glasses when playing, so it'sโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Too long to wait

Like a cloud but heavier

I have all the Kingston Cloud headsets. All of them. But the revolver sounds better. The revolver's headband will ring like a bell if you accidentally hit it while trying to scratch your head or something (very annoying). Not this headset. The Alpha also has a very cool mic mute switch and volume control built into the cable (very handy). But wait, that's not all, the string is also removable/replaceable in case your cat uses it as a chew toy. Comfortable even for a big head. Kingston needs toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Attention Discord users

While the sound quality of these headphones is great (especially for the price), they have a big problem with people using voice chat. Whenever I'm playing a game and I'm on Discord with my friends, they can hear most of my game's sound. This is due to the way Kingston makes Cloud Alpha. You're probably using a 4-pin connector, which means your speaker wire and mic wire are touching the ground wire in the wire, which in turn causes your headphone audio to show up as the mic input for yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Fits

Cloud Alpha - Worse than Cloud II

I've had the infamous Cloud II headset for over 2 years and when I discovered my dog had been chewing on the mic it was time for a new one. Hyper X has always impressed me with their customer support and great attention to detail, so I knew they had high expectations when I saw Cloud Alpha. It turns out that after 2 days of use I came to the conclusion that the product has gotten much worse. The ear pads were much thicker and heavier, adding extra weight to my ears. After wearing it for aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Only positives
Cons
  • Packaging is ugly

I've had these Cloud Alpha headsets for about 3 weeks now and I have nothing but good things to say. Well, maybe a little remark; auricles. However, a quick switch to Brainwavz earpads (red velor) changed the comfort by 200%! You hardly feel the headset and it's still snug enough to fit snugly against your head. I've been using the Astro A40 since 2013 and often use some of my audiophile headphones when I don't want to use the mic. So I was never really satisfied with the sound of the A40. They
