HyperX, the gaming peripherals team at HP Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced the release of the enhanced HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 gaming headset for PC gamers. Offering signature HyperX comfort and durability with soft memory foam and premium leatherette, the new Cloud Stinger 2 includes DTS Headphone:X Spatial Audio for improved 3D audio spatialization and localization accuracy. Minimizing weight without compromising overall performance, the Cloud Stinger 2 offers lightweight comfort with impressive audio, ideal for long gaming sessions and chatting with friends.

"Bringing a new and improved addition to our popular selection of Stinger headsets, we are excited to expand the lineup with the Cloud Stinger 2," said Nate Almond, audio business manager, HyperX. "Offering another top-quality headset option packed with impressive features for both function and comfort, Cloud Stinger 2 stays true to its lightweight predecessors' quality and comfort at a low price point - now with DTS Headphone:X audio for more enhanced in-game immersion."




Cloud Stinger 2 maintains the fundamentals of the original HyperX Cloud Stinger, while refining them to meet an even wider range of gamers needs. Weighing in at under 300 g, the headset is designed for a quality user experience with great sound and lightweight comfort. Cloud Stinger 2 utilizes large 50 mm drivers to provide clearer audio, with earcups that rotate 90 degrees for adaptive fit and comfort around the neck during breaks. The headset also features easy-access audio controls on the earcup and a swivel-to-mute, noise-canceling flexible microphone for added convenience, reduced background noise and clear voice quality.

Availability
The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 gaming headset is now available in the U.S. through Amazon, Best Buy and the online HyperX Shop for $49.99 MSRP.

Eh, no wireless version yet... Prefer the look of the older one as well, and the flexible mic.

Pretty Weak PR for HyperX, doesnt mention being able to replace the ear cushions or whether or not the mic foam can be replaced. Not that anyone should expect those features at $50, but 275g is pretty light for the price tag.

yea and no wireless too.
