The high-quality gaming stereo headset is a further development of the gaming lineup, which includes the Cloud and Cloud II headsets. It is a closed-type over-ear headphones with large soft ear cushions and high-quality balanced sound. The basis of the headband is an aluminium frame equipped with a soft insert filled with a damping foamed polymer mass with a memory effect. There are all the necessary adjustments, including the height of the fit and the angle of rotation of the ear cushions (up to 45 °).
Large and comfortable detachable ear cushions fit snugly to the ears, provide good noise isolation from external noise and will not let others hear what the user is listening to. Due to the softness of the foam polymer composition-filler, the pressure on the head is evenly distributed over the entire contact area, which does not cause user fatigue even after many hours of use.
The Kingston HyperX Cloud Alpha headset uses 50mm acoustic drivers with neodymium magnets. The special dual-chamber design allows you to separate the low-frequency component of the sound from the middle and high frequencies, which reduces the impact of powerful bass on the detail of the rest of the range. The headset received a removable microphone of medium sensitivity with a passive noise reduction system. It comes with a detachable cable 1.3 metres long with a 4-pin mini-jack 3.5mm connector and a two-metre extension cord with two more traditional 3-pin mini-jack 3.5mm connectors. The cable has a remote control with a microphone mute button and a volume control wheel.

Alpha
A well-known manufacturer of memory modules, Kingston has recently been actively developing all areas of gaming peripherals and has turned the HyperX series into a separate sub-brand. At the same time, the company understands its own limitations of production capacity, therefore, they attract third-party companies for cooperation. So, for the development of many gaming headsets of the HyperX Cloud series, specialists from the QPAD brand, well known to gamers, were responsible. And like most models of this family, Cloud Alpha turned out to be a feast for the eyes.
Dual chamber speakers with versatile sound
Let's start with sound. Dual-chamber speakers sound very different from the company's first headsets. The low frequencies are slightly relegated to the background and no longer obscure the rest of the spectrum, the mids are enriched with details, and the high frequencies are much better detailed. “You can listen with a player” is a serious compliment for any gaming headset, and the HyperX Cloud Alpha is no exception. If we talk about games, then everything is just fine: games delight with juicy explosions, the sounds of falling bombs, the battle cries of monsters and the noise of collapsing buildings. And their positioning is excellent, no multi-channel emulation is needed.
No flaws
Compared to other headphones of the Cloud series, the design of the headset has not changed dramatically, there are not very many differences. Alpha received more red colour in the design and fastening of perforated bowls. The build quality and materials of the case are excellent as always, the fit on the head is as comfortable as possible, HyperX Cloud headphones are famous for this. I was also pleased with the quality of the detachable braided cable with the volume control and the microphone with a certificate from Discord. There is no noise cancellation in it, but the microphone itself is quite good and does not catch extra sounds. However when listening, it may sometimes seem that the interlocutor has a stuffy nose. Separately, I would like to mention the wide compatibility with a variety of platforms. Thanks to several bundled cables and plug design, you can connect the headset to your smartphone, computer, and any modern game console. Even cooler, Cloud Alpha has no weak points. Generally.
