Review: Solid construction and performance for the price point -
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.
