"The big PLUS for me on these compared to the Novas is that they have recessed 4kHz - it reduces fatigue and it’s not harsh on the ears. Especially with those high pitch gunshots and flash bangs."
"excellent imaging for FPS games ... SteelSeries has better imaging"
"I can hear more things than everyone i play with - footsteps etc.."

"I found the live beam 3's on sale on Amazon for 129! ... For the price, I don't think I'd find better."
"An S8 would be great for vacuuming your rugs and carpets ... For $350, my two S8s are very hard to beat! ... Almost all of the ones I thought vacuumed, very, very well have been discontinued except for the S8. ... If a Mova V50 can do 80% as well as our cheap S8s I would be pleased!"
"Overall I think these are super impressive especially for the price. ... These could be bargain of the year.. I'm very happy so far with them"

"I feel like no one is emphasizing this, but the built in dual-mic on the mic version is really darn good. ... I am getting compliments about how clear my voice sounds despite usually having a dedicated mic."
"KZ Gale (DSP Cable) is your best contender!"
"it's got better mic than castor pro if you use voice chat/calls ... Mainly use it for calls."

"the microphone quality was TERRIBLE out of the box. ... while talking with a friend to help me fix it, friend requested I switch back to the old headset that I'm trying to replace until we tried a new fix. ... once I found something that worked... an hour later, nope, back to trashy sound."

"EDX Pro has ear piercing treble."
"it's noisy as hell"
"But those IEMs have bad directional clues, so it might not be as suitable for gaming as a headphone might be"

"The cups degraded to shreds in under 2 years"
"the plastic holding one cup broke from an accidental drop onto the desk."
"The spray leather deteriorated, so I opted for valour fabric instead, very comfy"
In my experience the hyperx cloud headset is one of the best options for the price just don't lose the detachable mic
r/XboxSupport • Advice on which headset to buy for Series X ->ch720n is fine but if you can stretch budget a bit, get a proper gaming headset, 720s are like a mid‑tier for a reason; you'll feel the difference in positional audio. 90% of us are on something like a HyperX or HyperX Cloud, not a budget Sony.
r/IndianGaming • What headphones are u all using ->Wish i still had my kingston hyperx, they sadly died, but are still my favourite headset I've ever had
r/HyperX • Best headset ->Hyperx clouds, tbh they are wonderful
r/playstation • Which would you choose, and why? ->I've had the Hyper Cloud X. The plastic part holding the earphone to the base has broken 2x. The first time they reluctantly replaced the headphones after a month of arguing. The second time they wouldn't. They don't sell the little plastic piece so you have to find a 3d printer to pay for them to be made. Total waste and won't buy their product again.
r/buildapc • The Best Gaming Headset to Buy Now? ->Currently using whatever the top HyperX wireless option is. I travel for work and spend a lot of time playing on a laptop. I’m using an Omen 16 laptop right now and it has the built in dongle for HyperX peripherals. I’m honestly pretty pleasantly surprised by them. They’re very comfy, sound is decent, mic is good. I did order those Nova elites tho and they should deliver on Friday 👀
r/headphones • Steelseries releases $600 Audiophile Gaming headset ->the hyperX cloud is a good fps headphones and have a decent mic
r/VALORANT • headphones under $200 for valorant ->Yeah that same part has broken on every pair of HyperX Clouds I've owned. I had two pairs that lasted decent length, but then I just opened a new pair like 2 months ago and that piece is already broken again. I used to be a fan but now I'm searching for a new brand.
r/buildapc • The Best Gaming Headset to Buy Now? ->Wired Hyperx, because EVERY BT buds are waking up my Deck randomly.
r/SteamDeck • What Earbuds do you use ->I use the Hyper X Cloud and love it
r/playstation • What headset would you guys recommend??? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
