A: With the microphone volumes maxed out in Windows 10 Pro and on the sound card on the cord, the bar on the Settings -> Sound options never peaks above about 25% even when yelling into the microphone. But there is a fix: 1. Download EqualizerAPO64-1.2.1.exe (reboot after this step) 2. Download PeaceSetup.exe (this is a skin that gives Equalizer APO a more friendly GUI). 3. On YouTube search for “How to fix HyperX Cloud, Alpha, Revolver & Stinger microphone recording level (ANY headset)” video. Follow the instructions provided in the video and you are off to the races. And just like that, the microphone is no longer on the “Con” list. Hope this helps!

Q: Is this compatible with Nintendo Switch - anyone play Fortnite w/ it?
A: No. Systems it support are PS4, Xbox One, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista and Mac.
A: I use this with a PS4 to play games, mostly Fortnite. Sound quality is great! I would recommend.
Q: Will this work on the USB port on a smart tv just for listening?
A: No, not on LG tv’s. Lg does not have a setting for usb out.
Q: Is the microphone removable?
A: Yes it is. The microphone comes can be removed and you have a removable cover you can put in its place to protect the jack from anything!
Q: is the usb for using the headset on pc?
A: Yes, you just plug it into your usb and it powers the headset.
Q: Do I need an adapter for Xbox one?
A: Phillip, it depends on which controller you have. If you have the newer style Xbox controller, it has the headset jack right on it, so you don't need an adapter. If you have the older style, then yes, you do.

for the love of god this headset is amazing!!! I made the switch from wireless because i was experiencing some issues with every single headset i bought and i was fed up with it. i made my return and when to go buy these. the sound quality that come out of this headset is phenomenal. directional audio is great on console and pc. the 7.1 surround sound is only offered through the USB device that comes with the headset. I mostly use this on my pc so i keep it hooked up with the USB. these 50mm drivers are doing their job! on the USB device you get a button in the middle that lets you choose to have the surround sound on or off and you get mic controls as well as volume controls. the mic is decent enough. not neccessarily professional sounding but if you have a usb or xlr mic you really dont need it but it gets the job done. the ear pieces are very comfortable you get two sets the pleather ones that are on and some fabric ones with red coloring on the inside. they are comfortable and the headset is very light and sturdy to the point you dont even feel you are wearing them. at this price range you get something that you would expect to cost more. i recommend this to anyone looking for a good headset to last with good quality audio. even if you are just getting started or a seasoned gamer!

These are pretty good headphones. There are a couple flaws with them though. The sound quality is really good so that is a positive with these. The headphones also look nice. You can either connect the headphones via USB or a headphone jack. If you use the headphone jack the cord is really short - 2 to 3 feet probably. That is the downside. Also we don’t think the microphone is the best, but it is detachable. Overall a good set of headphones.

These have nice soft cups and a extra velvet like feel very soft I like that touch and the unboxing experience very nice. The sound is good for the price got these for $70 and they sound like a $140 headphones . I play call of duty ,fifa and 2k etc.. Cons sometimes do they have a crackle my pair those but doesn’t bother me the weight and sound kept me from returning these I can’t wait for the new update the Cloud 3. The nice carrying pouch was a nice touch too! Great mic light weight I got the black & grey to match my Elite series 2 controller.
