Cloud III Series

I have the same model and it's not bad at all. I got it for $30 on special from Walmart so keep an eye out for deals OP.

I take it back they were $40. Normally $100.. anyways they go on sale and they're pretty good. The mic is detachable, I like that as well.

Hyper X Cloud III S wireless are a solid value and are tuned well.

Yes, just need modmic and there’s another adapter for the controller I believe. The issue is modern PC motherboards have very good amps. You won’t get the same filtering and it won’t receive the same amount of power you’d get from a wireless headset using a DAC like this. I mentioned before I didn’t see the Xbox logo. This is still pretty wild for a headset. If I were to choose one wireless headset it would be the hyper X cloud III with stealthz pads. You can get both on sale for under $150. They look weird and bulky, very bad aesthetics but the sound and feel beats any other gaming headset I’ve used. They’re also indestructible with an insane battery life and you can adjust the EQ from your phone but Xbox probably has the app since it’s on the Microsoft store. I’d look up some YouTube videos for it, of course influencers blow out these shorts and reviews for the big 5 peripherals brands. For 600 you could get the s2’s with a modmic. (S2’s are on Black Friday sale for $430) just as mentioned I’m not sure how good they’d be plugged into an Xbox controller or Xbox without an external DAC. The biggest thing you will notice if game audio design is good is the sounds aren’t all mushed together. Everything is very clear and separate if that makes sense. The highs are insane without being tinny like a gaming headset turning treble up or messing with the EQ.

I'm done with "gaming" headsets. They've all been crap. They all need bloatware to adjust EQ and get the most out of them. Logitech is the best software I've seen but their headsets are now terrible quality unfortunately. That being said if you're set on a headset I'd go for hyperx cloud alphas if they fit your head well. (Best buy has a demo rack you can wear for a bit to check). I saw them on Amazon and BB for 140. Look at the Cloud III S if you want a slightly better mic and better drivers with a bit more EQ control. You don't have to download ngenuity but it uses very little system resources if you do and is simple. The DAC's on steel series do nothing for audio clarity or gain until you get to the Nova pros which are $300, (255 for Xbox).

got hyperx cloud 3 wired from rbtech for 14k ( a little out of budget) but its a v good one. They might have cloud 2 for cheaper

I have HyperX cloud III, and am so in love with it. It's comfortable, works for everything I use headphones for (gaming, work, phone calls) aside from physical activity when I need to bend a lot. Very nice sound, good isolation, doesn't hurt ears even if the earrings are in, can't recommend enough

HyperX Cloud III best bang for the buck. the speakers are rock solid and work great for both gaming and music. mic has been improved since previous generations

Happy with cloud 3 wireless. Haven't tried 3s yet.
