Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Not so great :( Product felt cheap the second I took it out of the box. All was going well until I decided to hook up the mic and it didn’t work. Immediately returned.

Rated 5 out of 5 by WreckItRalphFN from Hyper X Cloud Alpha S The sound quality is great after a few setting changes on my pc. Very comfortable even after 2 hrs of streaming. The closed back design does a great job of minimizing ambient noise. I did not use the usb audio control mixer since I use an audio amplifier to control my volume level.

Rated 5 out of 5 by cups2318 from Very useful, easy, and lovable!! Honestly, one of the best gaming headsets i’ve had. I ordered it online and it came 2-3 days later. Very respectfully put together and this headset really just adds to your level of gaming.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Audio Nerd from HyperX Cloud Alpha S review Sound card does not work properly. There are sounds that you can hear through the headphones without a proper audio setup. Try something else, and make sure you have the correct sound interface to put it through.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tony Y from Sound effect Really comfortable and cable is long enough. 7.1 sound effect is super good. But the bass sound effect is not as good as I expected. I thought the bass slider was going to have a great influence on the bass effect, which is not true actually. Since there is not much bass originally, the slider can not do much difference. But overall, this headsetis not one targeted at music effect. It is a comfortable gaming headset. So, I will give it a 5.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Lenny Penny from It’s ok This item is so low in volume compared to my last headset. It feels so underperforming in that set and had to find methods to make it sound louder. With that method it’s ok but still feels uncomfortable to an extent with other volume like issues. The mute system also sucks. It feels more annoying to turn mute on and when I checked my volume on discord, when I hit mute, it doesn’t actually mute it till like half a second later which would suck if I didn’t know that. Sometime I need an instant mute so having it take that long is an issue as I have to mentally count it out before I can talk. It’s alright overall.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Not A Real Name from Great audio, microphone too quiet The audio quality is amazing and it's comfortable to wear, but the microphone is too quiet. For whatever reason, it doesn't have Windows' usual Microphone Boost in its settings tab, which would be very helpful as people often double my volume and still have trouble hearing me. The cord tends to tangle itself a lot, but it seems to be high-quality enough to where tangling doesn't break the headset, an issue I've seen on many headsets of all prices.

Rated 4 out of 5 by okamotoh from Very nice! Very nice build quality, feels professional. The headphones are bulkier than expected but nothing that gets in the way. The only issue I found was that my head starts to hurt when I wear them with glasses because of the pressure points near my temples.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Daniel E from Kinda tight. I have a pretty big head. I can see how these headphones would be able to fit a head-shape much smaller than mine, but since my head is pretty big, I found it a little tight. The cord is also way too long and annoying.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cam Cam from These headphones are a good purchase They’re good headphones, they sound good, they’re comfortable, and they feel pretty well built. One small criticism I have is that the bass adjusters don’t really seem to change how they sound all too much. For the price, they are some good, higher quality headphones that can be used for gaming, music, or just watching videos.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DadW2BoysInTexas from Not usually an over-ear kind of guy! So I usually go with in-ear buds. I'm also not a gamer. I am on calls all the time and listen to spotify while I'm focused at work. I've tried some other over-ear headphones and for some reason they've not been very comfortable for my ears after using them for more than 15-20 mins. Well, what I liked about these was the fact that there's a bigger gap b/w the adding and the 'speaker' part so my ear doesn't touch it. Maybe I have really large ears and this isn't a problem for others. Anyway, I have been using it w/o the controls and just plugging directly into the audio out jack which works great. I've taken some conf call on it and had no complaints about the audio, I don't know how it sounds since I haven't had someone call me but assume since I haven't heard anything it's good! Overall, really happy with these guys. Sound is crisp, they're comfortable. Only downside is that the bass isn't all that pronounced...I'd give the bass a 3.5 out of 5.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MiRe12 from Amazing Quality! HyperX Cloud Alpha S headphones go above and beyond any other gaming headphones I've ever used in the past! The surround sound allows me to clearly hear my games and the voices of my teammates! I really like that I can adjust the base function easily from the headphones! The comfort is by far the best I've experienced! The memory foam ear cushions are so comfortable and allow me to use these for hours! I like being able to have total control of all things while gaming and my HyperX Cloud Alpha S Headphones allow me to completely control the sound and my speaking. It is simple and fun to use!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Monster11 from Sounds good These headphones plugs into your computer via USB. You'll have to do this to utilize the full potential of these headphones and all its features. This is pretty standard now with these higher end gaming headphones with more features built in. However, I love that you can actually still just use these as regular headphones if you use a headphone cable extension. The sounds is crisp and clear. My main gripe with these is I wish it had more bass. Even with it's tuend up all the way the bass is still a little weak. I think these are perfect for gaming and chatting though. You might want something else for listening to music.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mssnoopy1976 from My favorite headset of all time! These headphones are seriously phenomenal!! I have never used the HyperX Cloud Alpha S type of headphones before. These are phenomenal!! The headset is high quality and they are so easy to use! My family is full of gamers, and we all took turns using them. They were compatible on multiple systems. They fit your head well and are easy to adjust if needed. The sound is crisp and clear, along with the audio, for those you speak to thru the mic. They are sturdy and so comfortable to wear, it’s easy to use them for longer periods and not be irritated by them, as I get with my other headsets. I love these, and definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great headset, even if you don’t need to use the mic.
