HyperX QuadCast 2 – USB Microphone for Gaming, Streaming and Podcasting, with On-Board Controls, LED Lighting, Removable Shock Mount, PC, Mac, PS5, PS4, USB-C - Black

Just opened the box today (1/1/2026)! This mic is great! Tested it using a Zoom recording. Going to produce a podcast with my brother. I was very happy with the sound and the sleekness of the mic it self. Very pleased

I've had this microphone since June of 2021, so its been over a year now and its still going strong as one of the best desktop microphones I have ever owned if not, the best. Sure there's the upgraded model, The HyperX Quadcast S, however for me at the time it was a tad out of my comfortable price range I was willing to spend on a microphone but the standard Quadcast is perfect for everything ranging from just chatting with friends to streaming with actually decent, dare I say, professional audio quality without any sort of troubleshooting out of the box. I'm not sure if the upgraded model would have suited me better but the standard model had already blown me away from both its sound and build quality. Its decently built and can withstand some abuse (my delivery person threw the microphone across my front porch to my door without care and it was perfectly fine). The stand it comes with is fine by itself and if you have the room on your desk is definitely a good option for holding the Quadcast however it can be mounted onto most microphone arms if you need to do so. I personally have my quadcast on a super cheap mounting arm and I have found it doesn't affect the overall noticeable sound quality. The only thing I can really say is a negative about this microphone is that after over a year of constant everyday use, the red lights do seem to be dimming in some spots of the microphone but it does have to be dark in the room to really notice it, besides its just cosmetic anyway so its really not an issue. I have found that a pop filter isn't entirely necessary for this microphone as the noise cancelation of most software combined with this microphone is more than enough to negate that annoying popping sound. For example, programs like Discord will completely negate not only popping but pretty much all background sounds with this microphone if you have it setup correctly, but things that use raw input like OBS, Voicemod, ect. would definitely benefit for having at least a pop filter of some sort but it doesn't need to be any high end filter by any means. Overall I would give the HyperX Quadcast a 9.7/10 for build quality, sound quality, ease of use, and the really cool looking aesthetic.

This microphone is really useful, you can mute the mic just with one tap and the quality of the audio is really good for everything, podcast, videos, or meetings.

This is my go too microphone. It matches my voice perfectly and has never broken once. I love this thing and the price is definitely warranted. Although I can't figure out how to make it do the rainbow effect for the life of me. Maybe one day. The deep red is good enough though, and it's not too varied to get in the way.

switched from my Snowball to this i would have liked a bit more of a change for quality for the price I paid but it is still a decent improvement, clear audio when paired with proper sound controls. a solid weight and built really well. diverse arm swivels which are good for changing it from studio mode to streaming mode. color is fine especially with the dimmer red. great choice for streamers.

First standalone microphone and i'm impressed with the quality and ease of use. Amazing sound quality as well.

Great quality build for a mic. It comes with a stand but I also purchased a boom. It is clear, directional, or Omni for sound pickup. Great value for the money spent. Metal build, good weight, suspended properly using bungee type cords to isolate vibration.

I bought this a a gift for my son, he uses it for gaming and says the quality of it is great and easy to set up.
