What the headset delivers

The HyperX Cloud II is a wired gaming headset built around 53 millimetre drivers and a USB sound card that creates 7.1 virtual surround sound on PC and Mac. It targets players who want clear positional audio and long-session comfort without wireless latency or battery management.

How it fits your setup

The USB audio control box plugs directly into a computer and handles both surround processing and microphone echo cancellation, so no separate sound card or driver suite is required. On PlayStation 4 the same dongle provides stereo output, while Xbox One and Nintendo Switch connect through the 3.5 millimetre jack for stereo sound only; the Xbox One additionally needs Microsoft's stereo headset adapter which is not included.

What the extras change

A detachable noise-cancelling microphone certified for TeamSpeak and Discord ensures voice chat stays intelligible and can be removed when you game solo. Memory foam ear pads come fitted and a second pair of velour pads is supplied, letting you swap materials for heat management or personal preference without buying anything else.

Questions about this item

How long before the aluminium frame or memory-foam pads become uncomfortable during marathon sessions?

The solid aluminium frame and memory-foam cushions are designed for extended wear; an extra set of velour pads is included so you can swap materials if heat builds up.

How much background noise does the detachable microphone actually remove when the house is loud?

The inline sound card provides echo cancellation and roughly 20 dBa ambient-noise attenuation, so nearby chatter and keyboard clicks are heavily reduced.

Which devices need something extra in the box before the headset works in stereo?

Xbox One requires the Microsoft stereo adapter, which is not included; PC, Mac, PS4, Switch and mobile devices connect directly.
