Our take on the HyperX DuoCast USB Microphone
The HyperX DuoCast is a USB microphone with an RGB light ring and two pickup patterns, suited to a streamer who wants a lit-up desk. At a tracked $105.99 it sits at the top of its $99.99 to $105.99 range since July 13, 2026, so waiting could save about $6.
It records at 24-bit and 96 kHz and has a tap-to-mute sensor, gain control and a low-profile shock mount. Cardioid and omni are the two patterns. A headphone jack lets you monitor. The lighting is set in HyperX NGENUITY software. It works with PC, PS5 and PS4. Retailers rate it 4.6 across 1,750 ratings.

We do not lab-test hardware. Ratings and review counts come from the retailer listing and are labelled as such; stream-quality figures are conservative planning budgets from our published model. Prices are tracked at build time, not live, and were last refreshed 2026-10-22. How the numbers are derived: methodology. How picks are chosen: editorial policy.
