About HyperX Cloud Alpha
According to the HyperX, It’s the world’s first gaming headset with Dual Chamber technology. It delivers noticeable premium-ness and unmatched gaming experience. In our experience indeed the Cloud Alpha Changes the whole gaming experience to a much better.
There are 2 50 MM drivers with Dual Chambers inside. One chamber dedicatedly only pushes the Highs and bass while the other chamber only looks into the mids and low. They have separated the driver chambers, for better sound and less distortion. This actually creates a dynamic sound that makes gaming, music and movies more realistic and immersive.
The HyperX signature memory foam, pliable leatherette and an extended headband have been incorporated in the latest Cloud Alpha to deliver the ultimate comfort for hours of extended game-play. One of the unique features of the Cloud Alpha is the detachable cable with in-line audio control allowing gamers to adjust volume and mute microphone on the cable, with multi-platform compatibility on PC, PS4™, PS4™ Pro, Xbox One™1, Xbox One S™1, Mac®, Mobile2, Nintendo Switch™, and other virtual reality systems with 3.5mm ports.
