Last year we took a look at Kingston's original HyperX Cloud Gaming headset and there really was not

– Built with quality materials; – Great sound and 7.1 virtual surround sound; – Removable microphone; – Comes with carrying case; – Can be used in stereo or USB mode; – 2 different sets of earcups included

– No control software for the sound card; – Need an adapter if you want to use it in stereo mode with a PC and be able to use the microphone

This headset is very comfortable to wear, and the sound quality is fantastic! It does not have "active" noise cancellation, however, the passive isolation is very good. One problem I have though, is that the product description says this also comes with the velour ear pads, but I did not receive...

Excellent sound, but had problems with the in line volume control for the microphone - it simply refused to work (Windows 10) so the microphone level was much too low. In the end I bought a cable splitter and just use them with the simple 3.5 mm jack connector (the ‘smart' in line controls are in...

Great headset for the price, does the job on my Xbox one.I tried Turtle beach XO Four and XO One these are better hands down I love the way the mic swivels up to mute.

i have been using this for a month now .. and to be honest its worth it ... i had no problem wearing its soft and light .. sound Q is fair ..

Absolutely amazing headset! The sound quality is 10/10, and comes with optional 7.1 surround sound compatibility, has its own remote too so you don't have to tab out of things to lower the volume!

If you like music quality I do not suggest this headphone but I do enjoy gaming with these with the mic. This review was modfied by poster @ 04-09-17 08:48 AM

Nice Looking; Build Quality; Good for Gaming with the 7.1 and mic

Only 16 bit sound when using the USB cable device, Music sound "Muffled" with way too much treble; It hurt my ears

After looking into countless headphones for gaming and media use, I finally decided on these. they are light weight, but well constructed and the braided cords look amazing. the 7.1 inline surround option works really well and is why you should buy the hyper x 2 over the hyper x 1.

So far so good. Will update if anything changes. Great sound. Only thing I dislike is I have nothing to clip the volume up/down attachment to, and there's no mute option on the cable

Just bought them. I would recommend for FPS games as it's really good for sound cues. Also the base is really nice when listening to music. Also for what it is the detachable mic is legit the best invention ever created in history!
