Our take on the HyperX Cloud Alpha S
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S is a gaming headset with dual chamber drivers and a hybrid driver design, for streamers who want separate bass tuning and a mixer. It offers 7.1 surround through NGENUITY.
A control mixer lets you balance game and chat levels, switch on surround and mute the mic. Controls are listed for PC and PS4. Frequency response is listed at 23 KHz. Retailers rate it 5 across 6 ratings. The mixer is the detail that decides it, since it lets you turn game audio down when chat gets busy.

Where it fits in a build
Monitor your audio. Closed-back headphones (no mic) are the pro pick if you mic separately; a headset adds a mic for comms or casual use. See every headphones / headset pick

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.
