Review: Bought in 2019 & in 2025. It Feels Pretty Much the Same. That's Exactly What I Wanted. - I bought this to replace my broken original in September of 2025. I destroyed the controller they give you, but the headphones are fine. These do the job just fine. I compared the sound quality of my old headphones and these ones and I cannot tell the difference, granted I cannot test the old controller anymore. You see I originally ordered this in July of 2019. That model, made under the old company, held up just fine. It was my favorite and had an amazing sound to it, especially when you activated its surround sound mode. Since the company was bought by HP I was skeptical about what I'd get this time. The new model is made with less materials, feels lighter, and doesn't extend as far as the old one. It still fits me fine though. I am someone with a big head and so that was a big reason I loved the HyperX Cloud II's design. The mic is still very low, like the original manufacturer's. I recommend using a program like Voicemeter to boost your gain on it. When you do that it works perfectly. In the end it feels like the same exact headphones. So if you are an owner of the old model that is near the end of its life and want another, then this is a safe purchase. I am happy with this and hope it will last me another 6 years or more. It's a great sound, a great value, and pretty long lasting.
Review: Incredible headset for an incredible price - This headset is pretty great, I have just finished testing it on a PS4, XB1, and a desktop pc. Here is what I can tell you about my experience. First, the packaging is superb and upon opening this headset, it simply oozes with quality. As others have stated, the build quality is fantastic and there are plenty of extras to make this a very high value purchase for the price. The second big thing is the sheer comfort of this headset. I am wearing it now because it is so comfortable. Kingston also gives you the choice of leatherette or a plush type padding to switch out with. Now for the third big important portion for most, how the headset sounds. Before I write that up, I want to clarify that I have a Microsoft Stereo headset, Turtle Beach PX4's (with optical pass-through), Sony Gold wireless headset, and a pair of Turtle Beach x12's with as DSS optical connection. I first tested this on my PS4 and this works with the usb connection to the console or the direct small plug into the controller. Both connections performed the same because the 7.1 DAC will not work on the PS4, but do not let that deter you from using this headset on your console of choice. The Cloud II is simply better than anything Sony or Microsoft branded not to mention any of the Turtle Beach headsets I own. The Cloud headset sounded really good on the PS4 with great mid and good bass, but the bass in my opinion is a tad bit low. To get the most out of the headset I went into settings/devices and manually adjusted the volume. For the Xbox One, I simply fired up Forza Horizon 2 and used the headset adapter. The sound is much cleaner than the Microsoft Stereo Headset and I can hear more detail than with previous headsets. As for the pc, the sound is great as well. I went into a session of Neverwinter because I enjoy the music and I created a character to test the 7.1 DAC which worked really well, but I could live without the DAC and go with my Asus Xonar instead. Overall, you are not going to find a better value with this versatility. I am a little disappointed that Microsoft does not allow a USB headset connection, but I look forward to testing the party chat with the microphone. I have not gotten a chance to test that portion yet. Of all my owned headsets, the only one that is close is the Sony Gold and the Cloud II in my opinion is much better. This has to be one of the best gaming headsets of 2015. Sound is subjective to each person, so for my needs and versatility it was a must buy as I plan on gaming on all three platforms this year. I also noticed a one star rating complaining about this headset not working as a wireless headset. It goes without saying that this is a wired headset, so please disregard one star reviews about this great headset. I hope you enjoy this product as much as I am! Happy gaming in 2015! Edit:February 25, 2015 I want to give my impressions after using this product heavily. I have used the DAC (wired usb soundcard) with the Elder Scrolls Online and Neverwinter on PC with good results. The simulated sound is more than adequate to bypass some onboard sound solutions. I play mmorpg's a lot on pc, so that is where I am leveraging my experience. I have not incurred any hissing or popping that has been reported. I run Windows 7(x64) and I do not run Win 8 at this time. I connected this DAC to the PS4 and I also used the small plug into the controller and I did not hear any pops or hissing sounds either way. My negative is again, with Microsoft because this headset performs poorly with the headset adapter, as does most third party headsets with the XB1 console. Again, I stand by my review with this being a must buy for versatility on multiple platforms. If your only buying point is for a console, then I would look carefully as this DAC (7.1 usb soundcard) cannot be used on both the XB1 and PS4. My use is all three platforms(XB1, PS4, and PC) and so far I love this as my main headset for all three. Unless your going to spend 200+ you can forget about getting a headset with this quality. I just gamed a 12 hour session on ESO (Elder Scrolls Online) and the comfort is top notch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ UPDATE: new firmware update and changing USB ports fixed the issue
*by C***D on November 30, 2015*

(TL;DR) at bottom of review After getting in touch with tech support to solve the problems my headset was having, I can say that the headset has impressed me. It has accurate 7.1 surround, as tested in Fallout 4 and various youtube videos. It has a wide range of sound, from highs to lows, without being overbearing on the bass. And Kingston support was very quick and helpful in correcting my initial concerns. After updating the Firmware for the sound card, most of the cracking and popping went away. Further research into the matter revealed that plugging these headphones into a USB 3.0 slot could somehow interfere with the "cleanliness" of the power supplied to the headphones. Upon plugging into a USB Power (aka USB 2.0) slot on my motherboard, my remaining problems disappeared. I highly recommend this headset to anyone that appreciates quality audio for a decent price. The only thing I may do at this point is purchase a headphone amplifier to boost bass when i desire it, but i wont knock a star off for that because I believe i got my monies worth with this set. Below is a link for Kingston support should anyone here need it, they can help you with the firmware update. I used the live chat option. Thanks Julio A.! Updated from a 3 star to a 5 star review. http://www.kingston.com/us/support/livesupport ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW. The headset is good quality, producing a wide variety of sound, however a crackling/popping noise holds it back from being truly great. Mic works good, and the surround is on point for gaming, but listening to music can be annoying due to the previously mentioned cracking/popping, as well as a background hum that was not present on my other headsets. Not sure if this is a regular problem, or if this is somehow due to a fault with my specific headset. Very comfortable however and other than the issues i mentioned it does put out some wonderful sound. Not sure if I am going to return it yet or not, but I am looking at other options to see how I could have possibly spent my money better. TL;DR Very good gaming headset for the money. You might have to spend 15 minutes doing a firmware update upon purchasing but after the fix you have a comfortable, accurate, and well built headset that will bring joy to all but the most discerning audiophiles. I recommend it.
