Our Verdict
HyperX Cloud Alpha S
HyperX Cloud Stinger S
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S and the HyperX Cloud Stinger S are very similar gaming headphones, and depending on your listening habits, you may prefer one over the other. The Alpha S are more comfortable and better built. They also do a better job isolating background noise, and they leak less noise. That said, the Stinger S have a more neutral, less bass-heavy sound profile that some listeners may prefer.
