The audio quality of the Cloud2 deserves a 5/5[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Mic Review” title_align=”separator_align_center” color=”grey” accent_color=”#dd3333″][vc_column_text]The hyperX cloud 2 microphone performance is above excellent with great noise cancelation and being able to deliver your voice to other people as it should be, the AGC performs excellent being able to boost sound when needed to. The mic was tested multiple times using games, live chat, and also performing vocal recordings it sure surpassed every aspect which a mic should delivering great bass, mids and highs.
There was a little problem which I encountered during the testing at times there is little scratching noise you are able to hear if you are doing vocal recording, but otherwise its unnoticeable if you are doing anything else.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]The HyperX Cloud 2 from Kingston left an amazing impression on me it just shows you that everything matters, how the product is packed and how its taken care of until it arrives in your hands and Kingston has achieved just that.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]To see where you can obtain one of these cool gaming headphones please head over to the Kingston website.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
