## Description

HyperX Cloud II features a newly designed USB sound card audio control box that amplifies audio and voice for an optimal Hi Fi gaming experience, so you can hear what you’ve been missing. Open up a world of detail other gamers will never know — the rustle of a camper’s boot, the scuttle in a distant vent. This next generation headset generates virtual 7.1 surround sound with distance and depth to enhance your gaming, movie or music experience. The headset must be selected as the default audio device in your sound settings. For Windows: 1. Open up Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound and then select Sound. 2. If the “HyperX 7.1 Audio” is not currently the default audio device, right click on the option and select “Set as Default Device.” 3. This should place a green check mark next to the default audio device. Repeat the same steps for the microphone portion of the headset, located under the “Recording” tab (also found in the Sound program in Control Panel.) For Mac: 1. Click the Apple menu and select “System Preferences” from the drop down menu. 2. In “System Preferences”, click on the ‘Sound’ icon. 3. Click on the Input tab and select “HyperX 7.1 Audio” for default sound input. 4. Click on the Output tab and select “HyperX 7.1 Audio” for default sound output. Note: The headset may appear as "USB audio" instead of "HyperX 7.1 Audio". Hear the rich, impactful sounds of your games with clarity and precision.

Review: Great headset, only a few issues that I can overlook because I love these things! - EDIT: Regarding my issue of the sound not working, I think I have determined the problem to be using Chrome Remote Desktop and TeamViewer. Whenever I use those programs, and sound plays on the PC with the headset plugged into it, it seems to bypass the headset and sound comes to my PC accessing the remote PC. Going back to my PC with the headset plugged in (and closing CRD and TV completely), that is when no sound comes out and I have to unplug the USB control box and plug it back in for it to start giving sound. I do not intend to stop using either of those programs, so unless I find a fix, I am OK with having to do this. I will not knock a few points from this headset that I already think is an awesome product; as it is an issue with a program and not the headset itself and as such I will change my rating from 4 *'s to 5 *'s. These have also been great for long periods of gaming and streaming. No headaches or sore spots on my head from wearing these, even with glasses on. My voice from my stream and recordings sound great, and playing Alien: Isolation is truly a terrifying thing when these are cranking up the noises and you hear metal clanking from the alien like it is right there above you! Things sound crisp and clear to me, like voices, even in movies and YouTube videos. END EDIT I bought these several weeks ago from desertcart Warehouse, thought I would save $5. I know $5 might not seem that much, but having just spent $1400 on new PC parts for my build, every dollar counts! Anyway, I am new to PC gaming, been with consoles for years. I wanted to find a good headset that would give me good sound, good mic, good fit, good build quality, and cheap. I found these actually by accident, as I was searching for Logitech's headset, initially. Now, these things are awesome... (The following is updated with my edit above) When they function, which to be honest is quite often. However, sometimes when I go to use these, they sometimes stop outputting sound. I go into my playback devices and I see that it is registering them active and that sound is being transmitted, except nothing comes out of the speakers. I have to unplug the USB control box from my PC and plug it back in for them to get back to working. I also have quite a bit of trouble getting these to work consistently with my HTC M8 (more so than with my PC). I sometimes have to reset my phone for these to work and I am not sure why that is. I am not sure if it is these that are just not very compatible, as I have earbuds that work every single time. That leads me to believe that these are defective in some way. It could be that by trying to save $5, these may have just been defective from the start. The mic is pretty good too. I like that it is detachable and flexible enough to get out of the way if I need it to be. You can hear yourself when you speak, you just need to make sure that, in your recording devices, you set it to listen. I really don't like this though. There is quite a big delay (maybe around 1/2 second) in you talking to hearing yourself from the speakers. The first time I tried this, I gave myself a headache. Just try to talk, expecting to hear your voice, and as you are saying one thing you are hearing what you just said, it gets very confusing for the senses! My speech became confusing, something my brain couldn't reconcile, which led to my headache (yes, an actual headache!). I am not sure if this is something that is expected when you have to do this, but I would not recommend doing this (of course, your experience may vary). There is a little rubber piece that goes over the exposed port of the mic when you detach it, from the headset, that I see being lost quite quickly. It is a nice touch to be able to cover that port, I just wish that it could have somehow been kept on the headset, so it wouldn't get lost. I still do have mine, and I keep it in the bag that comes with this headset (more on that below) so maybe I just need to keep it there unless I use these on a trip or something. The fit on these things are one of the best things about this. Very snug, very comfortable and when I have my glasses on, they don't press those into my head. You can either use the leather ones or the velour. I prefer the velour, they just feel very cozy and warm and plush! The build of these things, to me, do not seem to equate to a $100 price tag. That is a good thing, as these things feel like I am stealing something from Kingston! I would honestly expect to pay quite a bit more for how well these things are built. 'How can Kingston sell these for what I paid?' I keep asking myself every time I put them on! They are built with metal along the top, padded underneath to rest comfortably on your head. With several hours of gaming, they don't feel heavy on my head. The stitching in these things is fantastic, it is a nice detail, that while it may not improve the functionality, it just proves my reasoning of thinking I am stealing something from this company, but I am glad I am not! The cord quality is great, it is braided so it doesn't tangle or get easily caught on something. The cord is standard length, from the headset to the end, which can plug into many things to be used for listening. However, it is short for having it just plugged into your PC (this is not using the USB control box). If you do use the control box, which I recommend, then it adds a lot of length, letting you sit quite a distance from your machine. The control box has a clip on the back that allows you to attach it to your pants pocket, shirt, anything else, really. This is nice cos now I don't have to figure out where my controls are when I quickly need to mute, decrease/increase volume/mic, enable/disable 7.1 virtual. So with these things not functioning properly for me at times, I am not sure if it is the control box, or the headset in general (like I said earlier, I have problems getting this to work properly on my phone too. This could all be due to the fact that I ordered from desertcart Warehouse instead of brand new). I need the control box to add the extra length as my PC sits farther away than some might have theirs. The carry bag that comes with this looks to be great quality too. I expect to use it for the first time in a couple days when I go on a trip and bring these along. It is large for these to fit and keep everything that comes with it, all in one space. Now onto the 7.1. I cannot comment on how well this works. Let me give you some background information. I have a hearing disability. 95% of my left ear is not working and I need a hearing aid in my right ear, which is around 70% deaf. I use these things with and without my hearing aid. I cannot use the functionality of the 7.1, which is not that big of a deal for me as I have come to terms with not being able to hear very well in general. It does, however, seem to increase the volume, which sometimes I need when I listen to movies or TV shows on my PC. So read what others have to say about that, I'm sorry I cannot do this in this review. I will say though that these things can get LOUD. Which is why sometimes I use these without my hearing aid. They really do deliver a lot of sound to my ear that works. There is an audible tone when you push the controls and it is different when you reach the max and minimum. This is a nice touch as well. Finally. I am writing this review for the product I purchased from desertcart Warehouse a couple of weeks ago. Last night (3/24/15) I initiated a return for these. Do you want know what I did after that? I purchased a brand new set of these, for the original price I was trying to avoid weeks ago! That should tell you what I think of them, flaws and all, that I actually want these again. If the new pair doesn't work correctly, or like these things did, yes I will be disappointed, but it will be a minor issue for me because all of the other benefits of these things! Plus, having looked over the reviews, I see quite often that Kingston will reach out to those who aren't satisfied with this and offer help. Not many companies care once they have your money. But when I see a company go this far for those who buy their products, being a small business owner myself, I greatly appreciate this large company for acting the way they do, even if the issue isn't resolved. It speaks volumes to those who love the products of a company and to those who may not be aware of what a company offers. But offering great customer service is another great feature of this product, and one you may not find from many others. Now keep in mind, all of these things are coming from someone who just got into PC gaming, there may be others out there, others that are better, cheaper, more expensive, whatever... But I am glad I stumbled on these when I did, cos I don't really want to go to another product, I love these things! One last thing, desertcart is amazing! I contacted them about these and when I order the new pair last night, they offered one day shipping free! There are a lot of bad companies out there, but Kingston and desertcart are among the elite in my opinion!
Review: Great product by a reliable company. - Audio: 10/10 The HyperX Cloud II delivers beautiful sound with the 7.1 surround feature and massive mind-numbing bass when you turn it up. The microphone is crystal clear with no background noise nor distorting in any game or program I've used. Comfort: 10/10 The headset is beautifully designed to fit large and small headshapes alike (my fiance and I can both wear it comfortably and he's a larger male). Unlike most over-ear & over-head headsets that I've purchased in the past, the HyperX Cloud II doesn't get hot and is reasonably light weight - you honestly forget you're wearing it. Noise Cancellation: 10/10 My fiance who uses this headset has misophonia and is often annoyed by chewing sounds, etc, and says the noise cancelling in this headset is a life-saver. I've also noticed almost no sound coming through the headset when wearing them and definitely none when playing audio through them. Price: 9.5/10 I've purchased a few 'higher end' headsets in the past for double the price from other leading companies only to have issues with weight (too heavy to blend in) or heat (ears burning during long usage). For the quality of this headset, the price is very reasonably set. Would I like it to be a little cheaper? Of course - times are hard, but is it worth it? Yes, definitely. Support: 10/10 I've had a few issues with the headset [mainly the USB sound card] due to wear and tear, but Kingston stands behind their product's warranty with a truly friendly and helpful customer support team. I spent only 1 minute waiting on live chat support and my issues was resolved within 30 minutes. TL;DR: Overall, this is a nicely priced light-weight over-ear headset with great sound quality and noise cancellation. The headset when worn delivers powerful 7.1 surround sound and conforms to your body for a soft, natural fit. Kingston stands behind their products and their support staff is super friendly and quick to resolve your issues should any occur.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2011-2026, still going great!
*by Q***H on January 29, 2026*

I've played so many games of D&D, hung out in VCs while gaming so many video games, and listened to so much music with this headset. It still sounds good, I still sound good, the head band and ear covers are still comfortable, and there's been zero peeling. The cord has held up great, no fraying - but I'm not very tough on that. A slight bend at one end - which I am very rough with - but doesn't effect anything so far... And it's been like that for 3+ years, so. 🤷 I put them loose in my bag once (1 time!) and the logos on the side got scratched up surprisingly quickly, which is bizarre. Honestly when these finally perish, idk if I even want to upgrade to the Cloud III (or 5? whichever version is out at that point??). Maybe if they're significantly lighter and haven't been enshittified.
