Kingston HyperX Cloud Flight S
The Cloud Flight S Wireless headset has good build quality and comfort and a reliable 2.4 GHz wireless connection. The sound favors mids and highs, and while this does provide more clarity some manual EQ will be needed to add the powerful bass these are capable of to the mix.
