According to our gaming headset expert
Kingston HyperX. It used to be that that hearing/reading these two words only reminded you of memory cards and internal memory, but those days are gone for good. In the last few years, the manufacturer has made significant progress with its premium gaming headsets. The Kingston HyperX Cloud Revolver is the third offspring in the family, after the Cloud and Cloud II. With the Revolver, Kingston appears to be focusing on a wider audio range that "provides depth and width for an even better audio presentation". What does this mean? That you, as a gamer, can hear the location of your opponents even more precisely. Very useful in shooters and open world games.

Before this I had a HyperX Cloud II, which was also a good headset, but there were a few small hiccups that have been solved with the Revolver. As with the Cloud II, you could not change your sound settings in Windows, which you can with the Revolver, which I find very useful. The microphone is also of better quality. It is also slightly firmer and feels/is heavier than the Cloud II, but that provides better noise cancellation, it can be seen which you prefer a looser headset or one that fits a bit better. It is also built somewhat stronger than the Cloud II. The only "downgrade" is that there is no 7.1 surround sound, but that doesn't matter much since most headsets are 7.1 hardware driven.
So, not so funny story: Someone in the apartment unit above us got STABBED. According to the cop who interviewed us, the attacker rang the upstairs doorbell, and when the guy answered the attacker forced his way in and stabbed the guy. You want to know what scary part is? I didn't hear a thing, thanks to my amazing HyperX Revolver headphones.These things work as advertised! Probably the best noise canceling headphones I've ever owned. 10/10 would buy again. - Adam

This headset is great! Thanks to the automatically adjusting headrest, it always fits well and the ear cushions are also very good. They also provide adequate ventilation when it is hot. The sound quality is fantastic and is highly recommended. Thanks to the new technology, in-game sounds are amplified, which effectively gives you an advantage over people with a less good headset. It is even easier to estimate where a sound is coming from. The big disadvantage of this headset is that you have to pull the part that you plug into the controller of your PS4 from the box with the microphone button and volume control, which means that this function is lost. Also, sounds such as adjusting the headrest, or even touching the cable, are greatly amplified in the enormous speaker shells. Overall: a good purchase.
