HyperX - Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless Gaming Headset

I don't know, but I bought Hyper X Alpha 2 back in 2018, they're still perfect condition, and I can hear the exact location of a pin dropping across the map.

Razer BlackShark V2 X Logitech G PRO X 7.1 SteelSeries Arctis 1 Wireless 7.1 SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 7.1 SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1P 7.1 SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1X 7.1 HyperX Cloud III HyperX Cloud Stinger Core Wireless HyperX Cloud Alpha Corsair HS55 Wireless 7.1 Budget = No specific budget just one of these on top Location = Somewhere UK I dont have any budget i just have these options on top which one of these headphones is the best for gaming?

Thanks but these are all the same price so still cloud alpha wins? And why are others so bad?? Still thanks

I saw things like logitech g pro x being better than alpha and cloud 2 and both are same generation also they say g pro x is closer to studio headphones what do you think about this?

I ended up purchasing logitech g pro x since its closes to studio level headphone and its insane i tried every single one on the list and most professional and advanced feeling + quality was on logitech g pro x and hyperx clould alpha but i prefer logitech because of blue voice and hyperx being bought by HP is bad thats why out of them all best is logitech g pro x

who cares about sound quality for gaming.. i have audiphile headphone and i use it exclusivity for music. for gaming they are too big, unconfortable and the treble is fatigating. so its best to use hyperx alpha for gaming. it's lightweight, boomy bass is a plus to feel sound effects, i can wear them entire day, and its closed back so i dont hear gpu coil whine and the keyboard.

Gaming headsets need to be: -easy to drive even with controller DACs and mobile devices, both of which are very common devices when using them -durable enough to not fall apart if thrown (this happens) -inexpensive All of these requirements generally contradict absolute sound quality. There are better ones like the Audeze Maxwell but they're not cheap, though HyperX tends to have pretty good sound in my experience (if you ignore the mic quality, they're not great there).

I haven't really used a Steelseries, I've heard good thing about them but I don't use one. HyperX does sometimes do rebrands of existing headphones, like the Cloud 2 is a Takstar Pro 80 (very similar to the Beyernamic DT770 Pro) with a microphone and the Cloud Orbit is basically an Audeze Mobius without Bluetooth (the Orbit S also removes the head tracking) for less money. The Alpha and Cloud 3 are their own designs and generally also have pretty good sound quality without being expensive.

I have my cloud alphas for no joke more than 6 years. Only needed to replace the cable once, and the ear pads twice. Other than that they are still like new

Gaming headsets are made for noisy tournament settings and can have excellent noise cancellation. I have a HyperX Cloud Alpha headset and it works great. I can work from a noisy coffee shop and asked coworkers what they heard. They had no idea.

Cloud alphas are solid and all rounded

I have a blackshark v2 pro and honestly i love it for music, but i am a bass freak, if u don't prefer bass>everything else, then i cannot reccomend blackshark v2 pro. Comfy: 8/10 Wireless distance: 1/10 Battery life: 1/10 Audio quality: 6/10 I have hyperx cloud wireless aswell and i mean, for the right price its a nice backup headset, its not that comfy tho and the sound is at very best meh. Comfy: 5/10 Wireless distance: 8/10 Battery life:10/10 Audio Quality: 4/10 I've not tried ARctis nova pro, but i had the predecessor and if thats anything to go by then it will have great battery life but everything else pretty avg. Never been a fan of Logitech headsets but thats a personal foul i guess. My current everyday headset is Audeze Maxwell followed by HyperX cloud wireless as a backup with blackshark for occasional music listening. It all depends on what you are looking for in a headset tbh, if sound quality & wireless is what you truely want, then there is nothing that beats the Maxwell, it has best sound you can get in any wireless headset/phones, but ofcourse that comes at a higher than avg price for a pair of "gaming headset". Comfy: 10/10 (with third party addons, stock is 1/10 Battery life: 9/10 Wireless distance: 9/10 Audio quality: 9/10 (Personal preference would be more bass) If you do decide to lookup the Maxwell, you NEED to buy third party ear cussions & headband because....yikes. Personal reccomendation would be WC freeze & "ZMF pilot pad headband".

I have had the wireless hyperx clouds for like 5 years now. Still going and haven’t died on me. While the audio fidelity may not be the greatest they are probably the best PC headphones I’ve ever had and I feel like I am an audiophile who has used quite a few brands.

Was looking for this comment. Not to mention the wireless battery on my clouds last like weeks at a time and I sometimes have 10+ hour gaming sessions on the weekends.

I’m using a $99 Wireless Hyper X Cloud headset and I love it. Sounds great and the battery lasts for many many hours.
