    Beautiful look & sound
    As a a streamer, this mic looks fantastic and everyone tends to point it out. Also, the sound quality is really good, which is pointed out by my friends on discord when I switch from my phone to this mic on my computer.

    Great quality microphone with simple controls
    My friends were amazed as soon as I spoke over Discord. Clear quality, great sound and easy to install.
    I would recommend a boom arm for this, as the included stand is quite short. Cardiod pattern works like a charm.

    Wonderful Microphone
    I have been using this microphone since the day that i got this, i use it daily for at least 8 hours, the people on call can easily tell that I’m using a desk microphone because of the amazing quality, the voice comes out really clearly and only for 100+ that is an absolute bargain. Would recommend for users finding their preferred desktop mic

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersStreamer Quality Mic!
    One of the best microphones i have owned. The design allows for crisp and clear audio and the lights can be customized to your preference using the software. Connects to a mic boon and dont need the mic Infront of me to pick up my voice clearly. Has a great dial located at the bottom to adjust the mic volume which is ideal for when i stream. Muting the mic is as simple as tapping the top which kills the lights and lets you know you are muted.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersReally good mic, however the app doesn’t work.
    I really love this mic, the sound quality is amazing, the material feels like it’s great quality. You can feel how well made it is. The only downside I can see is that the app that’s for the mic doesn’t work. I can change the colours but I can’t access the mic as the firmware update that it asks you to do the moment you get the app doesn’t download so that’s a downside that needs to be fixed and from what I have seen, the app has been like that for a long while.

    Perfect in all situations
    Having been using a inferior usb mic for some time I was delighted when I seen this go on sale.

    Some of my friends had already moved over and got this mic and they always sound crystal clear so it was a no brainer for me. Sound controls are easy to understand and the touch to mute is great as you dont have to bind any keys if you dont want to. The added volume controle on the bottom of the mic means its easy to adjust volume input also. I paired this with a cheap yet high rated boom arm and I havent looked back. It works with my setup and If you see it on sale it is an ideal addition to anyones desk.

    Amazing value
    I got this on sale and once I plugged this in an tested it even at full price this is a seriously great product. After watching a ton of videos on YouTube and comparing different mics I settled on buying this and I don’t regret it has it’s amazing value and does it’s job without any additional software it’s by far the best mic I’ve ever had and I won’t be buying another one anytime soon.

    Good quality sound for work calls
    I bought this as I am working more from home and doing some 1:1 coaching sessions. I use an iMac and was relying on my AirPods, which increasingly had poor sound quality. I wanted to use the speakers, but knew I needed a microphone what would have a warmer sound to it. So far very happy with my HyperX microphone. Plus easy to set up right out of the box. Only qualm is I would preferred a USB-C input for my iMac, but I have a hub I can use to plug it into so not the end of the world that it’s an old school USB connection.

    I was a little hesitant of getting a standalone mic but after many years of my friends complaining and the downfall of steel series I decided to bite the bullet! It is great. I sound nice and clear and it will pick me up from as far as on the first floor of my house (without noise cancelling).

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our Usersgood but could be bette
    after a while of using this microphone we have had a few small issues,

    when i mute the microphone the light goes off, but it dont truly mute
    if i talk loud enough it will be picked up, so the microphone never really is muted,
    but! its good enough

    [i think it sets the pick up volume to super high levels so it will only pick up if its loud]
    you can test this on discord.

    Incredible microphone for price
    The quad cast S is perfect for all microphone needs. The ability to change its gain, mute and direction of audio all on the microphone makes it super easy to use. The RGB are vibrant and use of the software makes it even easier to customise your desk. Comes with built in shock-absorber and stand makes it a plug and go microphone with zero extras required. I personally have mine mounted to a 10 boom arm and works great. Highly recommend.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGreat Mic but I wish it could have software
    + Great quality Mic
    + Tap on/off the mic with light very comes in handy
    + Adapter included for mounting arms

    – It is missing software for noise cancellation, I wish they could add it. I use Nvidia Broadcast with it and it is great.
    – Using USB mini for connection which is the really old connector type
    – USB connector in uncomfortable place when mounting on arm.

    High quality but...
    Yes this is a great mic with great looking RGB. However, it is quite expensive and is it worth what you are paying for? Well im not quite sure, the sound quality sounds decent however expected more for the price. The different options for the mic which allows different functions for podcasts,streaming etc is a great touch. Overall it is a decent mic and is good looking for sound quality could be a bit better in my opinion.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersFantastic mic with only one small issue
    This microphone is an absolute godsend. The sound quality is insane, and I barely even need the pop filter I got with it. Goes very well on the new arm I bought with it, and I can say for certainty I would buy this product again. Every single feature of this microphone is 100% worth the price tag, and I have only found one relatively minor issue. The tap-to-mute doesn’t seem to actually mute your mic input, but instead drastically lower the volume. I muted on discord and my friend could still hear me when they cranked the volume, and I also tested it with Audacity and found the same thing. I’m not sure it’s worth me returning it for such a small issue, but it is definitely the only issue I’ve so far found with it.

    Overall, great value for money, looks amazing aesthetically, and impeccable voice quality

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersActually good
    I bought this mic because old one was breaking, seen that this mic has also very good reviews and since I bought it when it was at a discount of a massive 50 precent it was worth it as well for me as to price point it was a 20 pound upgrade for me but mix it self, full price cost 120 so 80 pound upgrade so I expected good from the price, reviews and company as I heard it was good. Mic arrived in one day packages really well. The connection to pc is very easy, since I plugged it in and hoped on a call with friends they noticed it instantly the massive upgrade, for the price the mic is very impressive and I recommend as my friends said that the audio quality is insane

    Blows other mics of a similar price range out of the wate
    I’ve used this product for a couple of years now and am extremely happy with it. The quality in both sound, customisation and build of the product are unmatched in this price range in my opinion. My only issue is if the product is not a couple of feet of your mouth sometimes you’ll be picked up quietly in discord etc. Easily resolved though with either a mic arm or boosting your output.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGreat mic and fantastic value.
    Absolutely delighted with it. Works brilliantly. Perfectly packaged, speedy delivery. No issues. I did have to uninstall a Voice-Over Software to get it working because I had an issue (similar to loads of other Wins11 users) whereby mics are detected, act like they are recording and show as “working”, but nothing plays back…was totally the voice-over software’s fault. Simple fix, but only after a whole day of trying every other possible fix.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersAmazing for the price.
    If your looking to get into streaming or just need a mic for podcasting, gaming or whatever – this is a good choice. The price is still cheaper then most but holds itself to the standards of the high prices. The sound quality is pretty good and very noticeable. There are different settings to be able to pick up surround sound if you are looking to podcast and only have the one mic. Plug and use and I think it’s great.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersAmazing! With one flaw.
    Everything from design, sound, accessibility, overall quality and feel is fantastic. It looks good, sounds amazing, feels very sturdy and NOT cheaply made unlike some microphones out there. Just in general a superb microphone for everyday use. However it has just ONE critical flaw which sets it back a whole star as in my experience this has become an everyday nuisance I just have to deal with it until HyperX releases a fix. The microphone prevents my PC from going into sleep mode. This is a well known issue which I discovered after doing some research, I just wish I knew before I purchased it. Either way, it’s not too big of a deal as putting the computer into shut down is always an alternative. However it does not excuse the issue at hand as it shouldn’t be a thing. Aside from that, as said before, the microphone is great. If you’re looking for crisp and clear sound quality, you don’t need to look any further.

    As it stands : 4 stars
    Once issue is fixed : 5 stars

    The microphone itself sounded great and felt high quality. However, I would recommend you to buy a microphone boom arm and possibly have a treated room. This is because It is very sensitive and can pick up echo in particular places. but other than that, I recommend it, especially for gaming and streaming

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersGreat mic well equipped for gaming and streaming
    I’m used to working with studio mics for audio production but never tried a decent mic at the gaming desk.

    I have a usb audio interface so was tempted to just go with what I know and plug a studio mic into that but while browsing I saw the HyperX mic and the colours caught my eye!

    I’m not a massive RGB lover but this combined with the tap to mute on the top, where the light will go out when muted, that alone is a nice feature.

    It also has 4 polar patterns, not what I need for its main purpose but hey its nice addition and gives the mic some real flexibility for different applications.

    The headphone out features a customizable (via software) mic monitor and the headphone output is actually better quality than I expected!

    There’s also a nice sensitivity dial at the bottom, and a usb-C connection unlike the archaic mini-usb on the older model.

    Overall the sound quality is completely fine, exceeds my needs for mainly being used just for gaming. You could easily use this for streaming or YouTube etc.

    The features make it a no brainer for me over using more expensive studio mics.

    Great buy at a great price!

    I’ve had 3 Yeti’s now, all of them breaking, sounding like a piece of garbage, and more. Once I got this microphone, I’ve never wanted to go back. It’s easy to set up, easy to use, and the wiring is a lot better, with the wire not bending like the Yeti. I have mine on a Rode PSA1 stand, and it works amazingly. I didn’t need to buy any extra equipment to set it up, and it sounds and looks great.
