Hyperx Cloud Alpha S Black Headset

HyperX Cloud Alpha S Black Headset:

The HyperX Cloud Alpha S Black Headset is an evolved version of the popular Cloud Alpha, featuring custom-tuned HyperX virtual 7.1 surround sound and adjustable bass. It’s designed for serious gamers who prioritize immersive audio, comfort during long sessions, and clear communication.

Key Features for Immersive Gaming:

The Cloud Alpha S comes with custom-tuned HyperX virtual 7.1 surround sound, which is activated via the included USB Audio Control Mixer. This mixer allows you to enhance in-game audio for a more immersive PC gaming experience and conveniently adjust the game audio and chat balance without needing to access in-game menus.

A standout feature is the Bass Adjustment Sliders located on the ear cups. These sliders allow you to personalize your audio by selecting from three levels of bass, giving you direct control over your sound profile. The headset also utilizes HyperX Dual Chamber Drivers, which separate bass frequencies from the mids and highs. This design reduces distortion and provides clearer, more distinct sounds.

For comfort, the Cloud Alpha S features signature HyperX comfort with memory foam ear cushions. These cushions are upgraded with extra breathable leatherette (8 times more breathable than the original Cloud Alpha’s) and also include interchangeable fabric ear cushions for those who prefer more airflow. The headset is built with a durable aluminum frame designed to withstand the rigors of daily gaming.

The advanced audio control mixer provides easy access to essential functions: activate 7.1 surround sound, adjust game and chat audio balance, mute the mic, and control volume. The detachable noise-cancellation microphone is Discord and TeamSpeak™ certified for clear voice communication and can be removed when not needed. The headset connects via a 3.5mm plug (4-pole) for headset audio and a USB 2.0 connection for the audio control mixer, making it compatible with PC, PS4, and PS5.
