high-quality microphone with a sleek design that performs great

Review: One Year Review - I've had this microphone since June of
2021, so its been over a year now and its still going strong as
one of the best desktop microphones I have ever owned if not, the
best. Sure there's the upgraded model, The HyperX Quadcast S,
however for me at the time it was a tad out of my comfortable
price range I was willing to spend on a microphone but the
standard Quadcast is perfect for everything ranging from just
chatting with friends to streaming with actually decent, dare I
say, professional audio quality without any sort of
troubleshooting out of the box. I'm not sure if the upgraded
model would have suited me better but the standard model had
already blown me away from both its sound and build quality. Its
decently built and can withstand some abuse (my delivery person
threw the microphone across my front porch to my door without
care and it was perfectly fine). The stand it comes with is fine
by itself and if you have the room on your desk is definitely a
good option for holding the Quadcast however it can be mounted
onto most microphone arms if you need to do so. I personally have
my quadcast on a super cheap mounting arm and I have found it
doesn't affect the overall noticeable sound quality. The only
thing I can really say is a negative about this microphone is
that after over a year of constant everyday use, the red lights
do seem to be dimming in some spots of the microphone but it does
have to be dark in the room to really notice it, besides its just
cosmetic anyway so its really not an issue. I have found that a
pop filter isn't entirely necessary for this microphone as the
noise cancelation of most software combined with this microphone
is more than enough to negate that annoying popping sound. For
example, programs like Discord will completely negate not only
popping but pretty much all background sounds with this
microphone if you have it setup correctly, but things that use
raw input like OBS, Voicemod, ect. would definitely benefit for
having at least a pop filter of some sort but it doesn't need to
be any high end filter by any means. Overall I would give the
HyperX Quadcast a 9.7/10 for build quality, sound quality, ease
of use, and the really cool looking aesthetic.
