HyperX QuadCast S – RGB USB Condenser Microphone for PC, PS4 and Mac, Anti-Vibration Shock Mount, Pop Filter, Gaming, Streaming, Podcasts, Twitch, YouTube, Discord, Black

I've always loved HyperX products, I have a 7 year old Hyperx Cloud II headset that's still going strong even though the leather is starting to flake off. HyperX construction always feels premium with the brushed metal, soft leather, accent stitched thread, etc and their microphone line follows that same trend. The Quadcast is much bigger and heavier than I expected it to be based on the listing photos. It feels sturdy in the hands. Nothing feels cheap, not even the soft coated plastic parts. It looks sleek, even for a gaming mic. I don't care for the black and red or RGB aesthetic, but HyperX does a good job of toning it down while still making it marketable to that specific crowd. I bought a pop filter that blocks out 90% of the red LED which unfortunately can't be turned off, although it serves the purpose of letting you know that the mic is on and active so it's not all bad. I would recommend a pop filter, although the Quadcast has one built in, it was still picking up some pops from about 7-8 inches from my mouth. Pop filter eliminates it entirely. I also bought a boom arm, the Quadcast's shock stand wasn't able to filter out impact noise from my wood desk, could just be the size and density of my desk and not specifically the stand's fault, but again the boom arm eliminates that issue entirely.As far as performance, I was upgrading from my Hyperx Cloud II mic which has always been subpar so it was a significant difference, all of my friends mentioned it within seconds of hearing me talk on the Quadcast, saying I sounded really clear, like I was "in their head", or like I was on a podcast. This was with no finetuning, now I use the SteelSeries Sonar program for the ClearCast AI noise cancelling, it filters out my keyboard taps and background noise better than Discord's Krispy and also carries over into in-game recordings, Krispy obviously cannot. Also love the mute function. Gentle tap on the end of the mic works every time, super responsive.It's a great mic, I don't think you'll find anything better for the price, this is it. I've already gotten some of my friends to buy it because they were so blown away by how much better and clearer I sound. If you've been considering making the switch from a headset mic, I'd say look no further. You will not be disappointed with this mic.

Very Crisp and good sounding mic, its easy to setup and the wire is very long so it is good for any setup, although I wish you could turn off the light while in use

I’ll start with the negative. Upon getting this mic and plugging it in. The hyper x software wouldn’t recognise It no matter what I did, no forum posts/YouTube videos to assist with this new model either - to fix I just had to update windows to most recent patch.The cable that connects to the mic itself is a little flimsy, I keep my mic infront of me with no boom arms or anything and when I move it around to get it out the way it is regular and frequent that it disconnects.Now for the good.Amazing sound quality straight out the box, but to get all your moneys worth I recommend a third party software, steel series sonar is really good and it’s what I’ve been using, voice meter is a option, with these you can eq the mic as without this it does sound flat when compared to other condenser mics at this price pointLooks amazing like..actually adds to the setup esp for someone who wants to add subtle colour to their setup. All the options in the software really make it worth paying a bit extra for the rgb colour option.I recommend this mic 8/10 times 👍

A friend recommended it and I will say it's absolutely a stunning mic, its 4 different features of voice areas are too good, and the tap-to-mute function is something I tend to use while on calls. The Weight of the mic is decent not too heavy or too light, the volume control of the mic does the job well except if you change it via the mic the Ngunity app doesn't change so remember that. It's so easy to setup and the functionality is something I was looking forward to. The best thing is the price which costs £160 Quid I got it for a whooping £75.49 about half the price and It's the best for such a mic. One thing is its RGB customization through the app Is fantastic just some more features for the app would be great otherwise this mic is a 10/10 for me.
