    I’ve tested both wired and wireless. The cloud 3 is probably their worst iteration of the cloud headsets. Absolutely no bass at all. I highly recommend the Cloud 2 wired and Cloud Alpha wired. I use both. The Cloud 2 for competitive, and the Cloud Alpha for single player story games.

      I wish I had seen this before buying them, I'm actually returning them because even after using aftermarket EQs to try make them sound as good as possible, there is still a lack of bass and the soundstage is really poor when playing any FPS games, its nearly impossible to tell where footsteps are unless they are directly left or right of you

    Problem with the cable can be solved with an extension.
    I saved extension cable from cloud stinger.
    That cable is in my motherboard and it sits on my desk so I plug any headphones that I want.

    I never owned cloud 2 but recently started using cloud 3 wired and it is SO comfortable. I own Bose QC45 and cloud 3 feels just like QC45... In terms of the sound quality, I mainly use the headphone for a fps game and have no problem with the gameplay (can hear footsteps, gun shots don't sound disturbingly sharp etc)

      Right?!! I haven’t had any problems with mine so far but I just got one. In all my years of gaming and using headsets. The 3 is by far the most comfortable I’ve ever used. I’m also on ps5 atm and I just plug into the controller itself instead of using the sound card extension and I play mostly all game but a lot of Warzone, Fortnite, etc, and I don’t have any problems with the sound so idk what people are talking about 😅🤷🏾‍♂️

I’m on a vanilla console with a vanilla controller 😅 so I for sure don’t have all those special cheats like artiswar on pc. Although I will say the headset works twice as good on pc than it does on console but I don’t have any problems with them on console.

    I am currently looking for a good headset with 7.1 external sound card, and wanted to get Cloud III but I encoutered a huge amount of negative opinions comparing to the Cloud II and I think I will get Cloud II instead.
    Ended up with H6Pro from Sennheiser, now I am looking for an external sound card supporting 7.1, for ~$100 - any tips? :P

    If anyone is having trouble recently, I just got some cloud 3s on account of my 2s being on the brink of death and I was having some major quality issues. I initially had it plugged in via the usb-c cable but switching to the usb-a fixed practically all of my issues with it

    I had the Cloud 3 Wireless for 3 days. Dont understand how some people can say this headset had no bass 😂😂😂 it has enough bass! This was a good allrounder for music, movies and story games. In competitive i was able to hear the steps and the correct direction, but the highs are way too loud, shoots and grenades in cs2 was so loud, they overpowered the steps. The Mic was excellent. Battery was excellent. Comfort was excellent. But the reason why i send it back was the Power Button, i dont like this kind of shit where you must press and hold for seconds to Power on, sometimes it didnt Power on with 1, 2 or 3 seconds Button hold, had to try it several times. And the 2nd reason was the weak Clamp force, everytime when i was moving my head for some centimeters it slides down of my Head. It was annoying...
    But all the other things it was a really good Headset!

    Just got these headphones, my old ones were the cloud 2. As soon as i plugged the 3 i noticed the sound wasn't that good and started to be concerned but i just used the extension from the cloud 2 and now its great. Its more confurtable, and the cloud 2 that i have here were already really old and needed to retire ahahahah. But yea if you are upgrading use the usb extension from the cloud 2, it will improve the sound a lot

    your mobo has ALC4080 with an embedded USB2.0 controller that it talks to rest of motherboard/cpu with. it's far from being some superior sound card. hyperx cloud 3--which i plan to buy soon--can be used via the other cable instead of usb, but of course you'll lose additional functionality on pc.
