Dude, you're like God-sent. I've been looking at all four headsets for 48 hours, trying to decide which one to buy next. nothing else than those 4 headsets, and just by some miracle, you chose to bring them into your video without mentioning it in the title😆. Despite my disagreement with the Cloud 3 headsets, I purchased them as a replacement for my Logitech Pro X headphones. Even after I updated HyperX, the audio felt like I had dropped to a 10-dollar headset, so I was debating whether to keep it or refund it and buy one of the other 3 headsets. Thank you. However, it appears that I will be opting for the Pro X 2 since I have an external mic, and the Nova's sound quality is not up to par based on your opinion.

The Nova 7, yeah. No idea if the Nova Pro is better in relation. Let me know how you like the audio from the Pro X 2 when you get them, curious if people agree on the quality there.
@milad-kh8925 ай бұрын
awesome comparison. some people say the cloud 3s have some issues with tracking foot steps and the overall surround sound is a bit mushy looking forward to see you compare the sound quality in detail in games like cs and pubg ♥
@Klongu_Da_Bongu5 ай бұрын
Cloud 3 wired has low bass and high treble, but a nearly perfect microphone. I wouldn't recommend it. Gaming headsets have boosted treble but the Cloud 3 wired takes it way too far. That's my opinion from having it. Didn't sound mushy, sounded so clear (treble) it hurts your ears, you have to lower the volume.
@MercuryTV5 ай бұрын
Yeah sorry I hope I wasn’t implying in my video the Cloud IIIs are on par with the Pro X 2 in terms of audio quality. They aren’t. They just do the audio/comfort/mic trifecta well, whereas the Pro X 2 really falls short in one category that ruins the other 2 for me. In my book, there are cheaper headsets than the Cloud III, there are better headsets than the Cloud III, but you’d be hard pressed to find a better, more affordable headset for the majority of gamers out there.

@thekoenman72572 ай бұрын
Going to switch from razer blackshark v2 pro (2023) to the logitech pro x 2. The mic on the blackshark was amazing, the sound was pretty good, but the build quality sadly left me with a broken piece of plastic that connects the cup and the headband, really common problem it seems. The clamping power was a little bit too much for my 'gargantuan' head as well😅. The only big downside to the logitech pro x 2 looks to be the mic, which actually does not matter to me as I specifically am looking for headsets with detachable mics. I only use it for pc and use a nice samson g track pro mic instead.
@eondrache7786Ай бұрын
If you arent returning the Blackshark headset then the mic will actually fit into the Logitech Headset and it sounds a little better. You do have to shave a little of the plastic off to get it to set right but might be worth it.
@GodzOGz3 ай бұрын
speaking from someone with a massive head.. the A50x actually fits firm and comfortably! I had the razer blackshark v2 pro plus... Both are fantastic headsets.. the blacksharks have an amazing mic and sound good and have amazing noise cancelling! But!!!! the sound quality and the straight up mic quality out of the astros makes them worth that huge price point! have had it for a little already and it was worth every penny!
@MercuryTV3 ай бұрын
I will say, having used the A50X a lot more since this video, they’ve broken in pretty nicely. Still get a little uncomfortable after long periods of time but I can live with it because of the features and like you said the mic+audio quality. Appreciate the view and comment bud.
@clawson321045 ай бұрын
Wbats even worse about the Pro X2 microphone qualiry is that Logitech acquired Blue who makes good microphones. Why the hell haven't they used them fo make their own built in microphone better. The A50X will defend its high cost due to the base station basically being a 4k 120hz splitter. I honestly think they should have just released console/pc specific models that use a usb dongle. They are a expensive niche item. Hell they dont even include the two HDMI 2.1 cables required forcsetupon just one consosle. Granted most people have them laying around but at close to $400 they should be included. The Audeze Maxwell are cheaper and soind better. xbox version wprks on everything. No need to buy the A50X

why some people hate logitech g pro x2's sound quality . Is pc38x have better imaging and sound quality than G pro x2?
@MercuryTV5 ай бұрын
I think the Pro X 2 is one of the best sounding closed back gaming headsets out there; a little difficult to compare to open-backs like the PC38x - but I have always preferred the soundstage and imaging of open back headphones to closed back. You’d really have to try them both and decide for yourself, but once you go open-back it’s hard to go back. I’ll gladly recommend the PC38x 7 days a week 365 days a year for anyone wanting a great wired gaming headset.

not sure why sooo many people doing reviews on blue voice miss it? on the Pro X 2 mic, if you go the mic, activate blue voice, goto signal cleanup, there are SOOO MANY OPTIONS to make your voice sound better, and yet you just past it up?? as a reviewer, I would suggest clicking on items to see what they do! you have compressor, noise gate, noise reduction, de-essor and the like that you just completely missed! that being said, I think a stand alone mic is WAY better, but blue voice does offer soooo much more then what you showed on this video! I used it for my first 1.5 years live streaming till I made enough to go "pro" on my microphone :) :)
@MercuryTVАй бұрын
I've played around with every setting in that software, and while some certain combinations make it PASSABLE it's still generally awful in my opinion. I have no stats to back this up, but I am willing to bet the vast majority of purchasers will use this microphone in it's default state, which is what I've presented. There is no excuse for it to sound as whack as it does, especially when they were able to make the mic on the A50X sound that good, with no goofy tweaking required.

If money is no object, you want Bluetooth, with the game/chat mixer - A50 X If you don't care about wireless, and want open back - PC38x If you want a solid all-rounder with no bells and whistles - HyperX Cloud III Wireless Really comes down to your budget and features you HAVE to have. The two that are currently on my desk, and have been for some time, are the A50 X and PC38x. 80% of nights I'm in Discord with my friends, so the game/chat mixer, Bluetooth functionality, and mic are the biggest reason I use the A50 X. If I wasn't using that, I'd probably be using the PC38x with my old Astro A40TR MixAmp.

I went with the Astro A50x The high price is for the connivence of having one headset for PlayStation,Xbox and PC with HDMI quality audio and maintaining features like Dolby Atmos and 3D audio . I’d say they are well worth the $380 As that’s how much you’d pay anyways for a 3 different headsets for all three systems

For sure, and it's a ridiculous added cost. In the past they had 2 variants of this headset - PS/PC and Xbox/PC. How many people NEEDED the ability to use all 3? I imagine less than half a percent of users. So Astro gets to reduce their amount of SKU's, manufacture 1 product, and charge us more for the pleasure. Smart move on their end, sucky for the consumer IMO.
