hyperx cloud 2 wireless review a

   Whether or not you enjoy using gaming headsets there's no denying that they are an extremely useful accessory, not only for the PC but also consoles. Unfortunately just like with everything in the electronics industry it's not really easy to find the proper/ideal gaming headset, not only in terms of audio quality/clarity and positioning (3D/Surround models) but also in terms of build quality and even more importantly, comfort. Now that i think about it out of the countless gaming headsets I've tested and/or used over the years no more than just a handful combine all of the above. The CLOUD II Wireless is the latest closed back gaming headset released by HyperX and that's what today's review is all about.


   For 18 years, HyperX’s mission has been to develop gaming solutions for every type of gamer and the company is consistently recognized for delivering products that provide superior comfort, aesthetics, performance, and reliability. Under the tagline of “WE’RE ALL GAMERS,” HyperX gaming headsets, keyboards, mice, USB microphones, and console accessories are the choice of everyday gamers as well as celebrity ambassadors, pro gamers, tech enthusiasts, and worldwide because they meet the most stringent product specifications and are built with best-in-class components. For more information, please go to www.hyperxgaming.com.


   Unlike the CLOUD II Pro and the CLOUD II before it the CLOUD II Wireless doesn't share the same exact specifications and so even though it's also based on two 53mm neodymium magnet dynamic stereo drivers this time over they feature a frequency response of 15Hz-20KHz with 60 Ohm impedance and 104dB SPL. The same applies for the flexible detachable boom microphone (bidirectional, noise cancelling) which this time over features a frequency response of 50Hz-6.8KHz with -20dB impedance. Of course, 5+ years after the CLOUD II and CLOUD II Pro made their debut the change in specifications didn't really come as a surprise. Other features include a 7.1 virtual surround sound card, 2.4GHz wireless connectivity via a bundled USB dongle (up to 20 meters distance), 1500mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack that can keep the headset going for up to 30 hours and memory foam padding for both the ear and head pads. So, let's see just how the CLOUD II headsets have evolved after all these years.
