Compounding that issue is the drivers used in this headset sound terrible if you convert it into a closed back design by plugging those holes

Very light headphones, very durable, crisp sound, and flexible

Perfect sound for perfect price

The headset itself is comfy and the sound is awesome except for that cracking noise I'm getting.

The microphone is very clear and the sound is solid

Sound is good though

so my ears now good sound.

Comparing these to the old HyperX KHX-H3CL/WR (which we have owned since 12/2015), these are more comfortable, clearer-sounding at a lower volume, and not so bassy.

Can wear for long periods of time without feeling like my head's being crushed; light enough to bring everywhere with meBeautiful sound -- Love, love, love how the music/in game sounds come out so clear!Matte finish -- Super smooth and doesn't pick up oily fingerprints that stain

The sound is fantastic but this model has a big issue for me and it might be for people like me

First off these sound fine but to get the most out of these you’ll probably want to get the amp that HyperX makes, it gives these virtual 7.1 surround sound and really improves the sound

so it boosted the sound greatly

Super comfortable and great sounding.

Poor sound isolation however

Great sound

Super comfortable and great sounding.

Noticeably more comfortable, and excellent sound quality as well.

These sound superb as well

Sound is good and the mic works well

Sound is good and the mic works well

I'm not a gamer, but I like good sound for my audio work (I teach online, and record for subscriptions), and this headset is SUPER comfortable, easy to install and use, and works like a charm

The bass and sound are great however if you guys want to boost up the sound on a console I suggest u have to buy an amp like astro to increase the sound if you willing to spend more I will go with Sound blaster X7

, mic produces clear sound and not muffled like so many gaming headsets...very pleased with this product!

Nice sound, nice mic quality and nice build quality but for me the headset started to hurt my ears after only 1 hour of use

Great sound

This headset has a lot of goods going for itself, especially at this price point - decent sounding headphones, detachable cables and mic, solid build quality, and extremely comfortable even with my extra large head

The sound is really bad and the ear pads are pressing my ears all the time I was really excited about this

While video conferencing, the noise-canceling mic delivers clear, rich sound, with no distortion and zero noise

Sound is great

Balanced sound and Mic quality for the price

The sound is astounding

Sound is good and is comfortable

The plug in has no hiss and the sound is clean, a real good investment for gamers

Sound is good and comfortable

Great sound, great feel to them, quality construction

I highly recommend them for working professionals who have lots of phone meetings, because it's just so much less fatiguing on your ears if you have a clear, pleasant sounding voice to listen to vs the horrible sound of phone speakers or cheap Bluetooth headphones

and I really like the sound and

Good sound, good mic quality.

Very comfortable and the sound is amazing!

Has amazing sound

I don't even miss the software surround sound of my other headset

Good sound from headphones, friends never complain they can't hear me online

This gaming headset has incredible sound and is a great value for a fairly reasonable price

everything opens up ALOT more, and the sound is sooooo freaking accurate

Clear, loud and good sound

The sound is also incredible

Crisp sound and does not sound muddy

Quality is just incredible, the mic is pretty good since it doesn’t make static sounds, this headset is amazing for the price, and it helps me a lot because I’m a R6 player

It's exactly as advertised well working feels nice light as a feather and the sound is amazing

I'm not even going to lie these sound absolutely fantastic

I'm not even going to lie these sound absolutely fantastic

The direction of where sounds are coming from in games (like in PUBG) are more spatial

The sound is just amazing, so

Really comfortable, great materials, and excellent sound

Excellent sound, look, and versitility

First i had some issues fixing the sound since i play more of fps games ex; rainbow six siege stereo type headseats make it kind of heard to recognize where the sound is coming

This is a super comfortable well sounding headset

This is a super comfortable well sounding headset

I've paid more for plastic with crappy sound

Sound is great for the price, good build quality and pretty good mic.

But for those that game on PS4, I personally found the sound to be quite lackluster if you connect it directly to the controller

(Crap) looses signal and soundTurtle Beach Elite 800 wireless, great sound and fit and finish but

These sound incredible

Poor sound isolation however

Alphas have great sound and comparable build quality.

The sounds are amazing, and noise cancelling is scary good as I couldn't hear anything outside of the game/movie (get ready to be screamed at by your loved ones for not hearing them)

No joke Astro does have great sound but their headphones are heavy and won't feel comfortable after 3 hrs of gaming

The sound is very clear and in my opinion it is perfect

While video conferencing, the noise-canceling mic delivers clear, rich sound, with no distortion and zero noise

This provides surround sound for FPS gaming on the PS4, I was shocked how accurate the sound for the new Black Ops 4 was with the amp surround sound

Hyperx Cloud AlphaThe Sennheisers do sound better and are amazing headphones but the hyperX cloud alphas offer good sound with amazing sound stage even for being closed back headphones more so than the Sennheiser game zeros.

It has clear sound and my friends in chat (Discord VoiceChat) have noticed a significant improvement in mic quality since I upgraded from my old headphones

, sound is good, chat is good

Decent head phones quality material and sound

Great build quality, very good sound, my friend on discord no longer make fun of me for my crappy mic.

I have nothing bad to say about these cans, they have great sounds and now i can actually use their amazing spatial awareness to hear where enemy's are in game

I do know they allow sound to leak out of the ear cups, so that means they are allowing sound to leak into the ear cups as well

The Logitech headset required a mic and audio jack that you had to use together on your PC in order to work, did not work on anything else, the sound was always too low no matter what I tried to do with the settings on the computer or with the volume adjuster on the cable connected to the headset, and it was uncomfortable to wear

All my friends say I easily have the clearest sounding mic, even tho some have spent significantly more on theirs

pretty nice headset, great sound and is super comfortable for those long gaming sessions

pretty nice headset, great sound and is super comfortable for those long gaming sessions

I thought the sound was messed-up at first, but the cable wasn't seated right in the headphone socket, a note for people who have weird sound issues

The sound on it worked

Amazing sound

Loud, and most sound effects sound good

Artics 3 great sound and clarity does not include mic monitoring

Maybe I have a pretty good sound card

The sound is crystal clear and all my friends can hear me clearly on Discord

I have been looking for a pair of headphones that are the best for footsteps as well as good overall sound

Awesome sound and when combined with the HyperX sound card, it's a really great headset that I think competes with the Astro premium headsets for sure

Great sound

Good sound

Pros:aluminum headbandgreat sound, clear at max volumesuper

The sound is so crystal clear with no distortion whatsoever even with the volume maxed

They are insanely comfortable, have great sound, and look awesome

The sound on them is clear and the mic stops the breathing sounds of air wooshing by, but these are unusable right now for only one reason

Nothing helps, there is a loud static buzz that over powers any game sound

Love the sound and headset does not hurt ears after using for a couple hours.

Sound is good but not great.

Otherwise and wonderful, good sounding, comfortable headset.

Nice, wide soundstage and quality sound with no noise issues

AWESOME!!!Amazing sound and very comfortable!

Sound could be better as well

Confusing sound set-up -- was slightly difficult to figure out how to change the sound on stream to come out of the headphones, but it worked out

The sound is good not great though

I bought these with christmas money as a replacement for a pair I already had that had an annoying, screeching sound that intruded on everything I listened to

The sound is crazy clear, i play everything from 2k to destiny and it all sounds great

The sound is great, the mic is great as well

The sound is incredible

Absolutely incredible build quality, sound, mic quality and sound from other side, ability to plug and play in pretty much any gaming system

I first had trouble with the sound quality, it felt like the sound was echoing or like it was being projected down a long

Quality build, sound was good

Great sound

The sound is great and the mic quality is very good too, but the problem with this headphone is that they make the peds too thin it hurt ur ear after u wear them for a while,and the headphone

My mic sounds clear when I game, and none of my background gets picked upComfortable fit -- Goes around my ears, thus allowing for longer sessions of gaming/music listeningDouble-braided cord -- Durable and sleekLightweight

The sound is about as good as the Polk 4 shots (great sound, but cheap plastic), but the bass could be better as less than the Astro 50's

During gaming, they not only have excellent sound effects and but provide really good ambient sounds as well.

Out of the box everything looked great, build quality is superb and the audio sounded brighter and clearer than my Cloud II's

The only thing that I have with them is that while playing games I can hear a sort of static sound.

Superb, deep, clear sound

Comfy and Clear sound

The only issue I have with them is that and they’re not loud enough the sound is good just not loud

Great sound

the sound is much better, and alot louder

The sound is incredibly crisp and has changed the entire gaming experience for me

The headset offers clear and crisp sound on ps4 although somewhat understated in comparison to the Amps sound

The sound the crisp and clear with not too much bass

Awesome sound, very comfortable headphones

That's it, the headset is amazing, superb sound, light, very comfortable for shor periods of time, I've started to hear sounds

Sound is superb

Artics 7 great sound and clarity does not include mic

Some serious quality helps amazingly with Siege and Fortnite where sound is how to win

Very comfortable, snug fit, good sound

Great sound, great look!

Took some time to setup, but works well and has great sound

The surround sound is great, and I can hear directional cues in-game.

Overall the sound is great, and these guys are super comfortable

The sound is good not great though

The sound is crazy clear, i play everything from 2k to destiny and it all sounds great

Like our older HyperX headphones, these new headphones deliver excellent sound under just about any circumstances.

When you combine the headset with the xbox one controller adaptor, controlling the game and voice sounds is very easy and versatile.

The sound and mic is quite good from my viewpoint.

The day I bought it the headset sounded great, but the mic doesn’t work.

Sound is great , Can wear them for hours with no discomfort

Confusing sound set-up -- was slightly difficult to figure out how to change the sound on stream to come out of the headphones, but it worked out

I would say HyperX Cloud Alpha Pro Gaming headsets are one of the comfortable and great with amazing sound

He wanted to return them since it was no fun to be in the middle of a game and then no sound or the other players would not hear you on the mic

I’ve owned the Cloud 2’s for almost three years, and they broke despite being amazing headphones

I would highly recommend this over the Cloud 2’s

I own the Revolver S, Cloud 2, and now the Alpha, and for sound quality I'd rank them
