The HyperX Cloud Alpha™ S builds upon the groundbreaking Cloud Alpha and features HyperX virtual 7.1[1] surround sound. With the included audio control mixer, you can activate the surround sound and adjust the game audio and chat balance without having to go into any menus. Bass adjustment sliders have been added to the ear cups so you can personalize your audio. The Cloud Alpha S still features the dual-chamber driver system which reduces distortion and provides clearer sound, as well as signature HyperX comfort afforded by the memory foam ear cushions, which have been upgraded with extra breathable leatherette.

Bass adjustment sliders to personalize your sound

Select from 3 levels of bass with these convenient sliders on the ear cups. Fully open them for maximum bass or close them to reduce the bass levels.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Amazing The best headset company on the planet great job on the sound,feel,quality and surround sound

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tony Y from Sound effect Really comfortable and cable is long enough. 7.1 sound effect is super good. But the bass sound effect is not as good as I expected. I thought the bass slider was going to have a great influence on the bass effect, which is not true actually. Since there is not much bass originally, the slider can not do much difference. But overall, this headsetis not one targeted at music effect. It is a comfortable gaming headset. So, I will give it a 5.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Lenny Penny from It’s ok This item is so low in volume compared to my last headset. It feels so underperforming in that set and had to find methods to make it sound louder. With that method it’s ok but still feels uncomfortable to an extent with other volume like issues. The mute system also sucks. It feels more annoying to turn mute on and when I checked my volume on discord, when I hit mute, it doesn’t actually mute it till like half a second later which would suck if I didn’t know that. Sometime I need an instant mute so having it take that long is an issue as I have to mentally count it out before I can talk. It’s alright overall.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Not A Real Name from Great audio, microphone too quiet The audio quality is amazing and it's comfortable to wear, but the microphone is too quiet. For whatever reason, it doesn't have Windows' usual Microphone Boost in its settings tab, which would be very helpful as people often double my volume and still have trouble hearing me. The cord tends to tangle itself a lot, but it seems to be high-quality enough to where tangling doesn't break the headset, an issue I've seen on many headsets of all prices.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from HyperX cable not capable with a controller The headset and mic are very good quality but I wish I new before buying, that the other cable is for PC and has a USB connector which I can't use on my controller so I have to use the one without the mute button and volume changer.

Rated 4 out of 5 by okamotoh from Very nice! Very nice build quality, feels professional. The headphones are bulkier than expected but nothing that gets in the way. The only issue I found was that my head starts to hurt when I wear them with glasses because of the pressure points near my temples.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Daniel E from Kinda tight. I have a pretty big head. I can see how these headphones would be able to fit a head-shape much smaller than mine, but since my head is pretty big, I found it a little tight. The cord is also way too long and annoying.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cam Cam from These headphones are a good purchase They’re good headphones, they sound good, they’re comfortable, and they feel pretty well built. One small criticism I have is that the bass adjusters don’t really seem to change how they sound all too much. For the price, they are some good, higher quality headphones that can be used for gaming, music, or just watching videos.

Rated 1 out of 5 by FleurieHeart from Don’t waste your money Sounds metallic, not a good headset, sound quality for games and music is horrible and the mic barely works. Overall a terrible headset. Have bought much cheaper gaming headsets that are better quality. The worst part is I can’t seem to get ahold of anyone to return it either.
