HyperX QuadCast 2 S USB Microphone

The HyperX QuadCast 2 S is a USB condenser microphone designed for streamers, podcasters and content creators who need clear voice capture. It connects directly to a computer without an external interface. A built-in mute function allows instant silencing during live sessions. The all-black finish suits modern desktop setups.

Check USB port availability and mounting needs

Verify that your system has a free USB Type-A port for the supplied cable. No additional drivers are required for basic operation on current operating systems. Ensure you have a suitable stand, boom arm or shock mount with standard threading if you do not plan to use the included desktop stand. Confirm your recording software can select the device as an input source.

Suits solo voice work; not for multi-person rooms

This microphone suits solo streamers, voice-over artists and remote workers who record one voice at a time. Its cardioid pickup focuses on sound directly in front of the capsule. Buyers who need to capture round-table discussions, musical instruments or ambient soundscapes should look at something else. Users requiring XLR connectivity for a professional mixer or audio interface will also need a different solution.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the HyperX QuadCast 2 S and is any extra cable or mount required?

The microphone connects via USB so the supplied cable provides both power and audio; no separate interface or phantom power unit is needed.

How do I decide which version of the QuadCast 2 S to choose?

Only the black QuadCast 2 S with part number 9A273AA is listed, so there are no alternative colours or capacity options to compare.

What does the 90 dB signal-to-noise ratio mean when I record with this microphone?

A 90 dB SNR indicates very low self-noise, so quiet vocals or instruments stay clean without audible hiss in the 20 to 20000 Hz range.
