Go to solution Solved by creatip123,

Are you sure that hyperx cloud better than afterglow ? I visit amazon then i see that hyperx cloud is cheap

 

Based on personal experiences, whichever you ended up getting, you will have curious feelings, or even regrets....

 

Let's do a simple systematical 'what if' options:

 

- You get the HyperX, no matter how you like it, you'll have curiosity about that afterglow. 'If only I'd gone with the afterglow', or 'perhaps the afterglow would be better than this hyperx', etc

- You get the afterglow, vice versa, just replace the 'afterglow' with 'hyperx'

 

If you don't want to experience that curiosity and/or regrets, than the other option is to get both of them, and compare them yourself, head to head, in your home. Which leads to the following options:

 

- Keep the one you like, sell the others. You take a minor money loss, but at least you're not curious anymore

- Keep both, alternating the usage, or just keep it, if only for novelty purpose

- Sell both. Perhaps you ended up disliking both, sell both of them, and find another one that you like

 

Up to you, which road you wanna take.....

Well, they certainly look nice. I have no experience with them, but I'm willing to bet that you're paying for the design, not for the quality.

 

I'd look for something else to be honest. For a similar price, you can get something better, or something just as good for less money.

An award? Show me said award.  Never been satisfied with Afterglow products. They feel cheap, are cheap, and are straight up lousy in terms of audio.

Based on personal experiences, whichever you ended up getting, you will have curious feelings, or even regrets....

 

Let's do a simple systematical 'what if' options:

 

- You get the HyperX, no matter how you like it, you'll have curiosity about that afterglow. 'If only I'd gone with the afterglow', or 'perhaps the afterglow would be better than this hyperx', etc

- You get the afterglow, vice versa, just replace the 'afterglow' with 'hyperx'

 

If you don't want to experience that curiosity and/or regrets, than the other option is to get both of them, and compare them yourself, head to head, in your home. Which leads to the following options:

 

- Keep the one you like, sell the others. You take a minor money loss, but at least you're not curious anymore

- Keep both, alternating the usage, or just keep it, if only for novelty purpose

- Sell both. Perhaps you ended up disliking both, sell both of them, and find another one that you like

 

Up to you, which road you wanna take.....

I use SteelSeries Siberia V2's for gaming, ATH M50s for at home music, and Sennheiser CX 300 MK II's for listening on the go. Unfortunately the earbuds aren't as good as my old CX 275's.

I've own, used so many headphones that I'm not even even anymore.

Same here.  My first encounter with audiophilia is when my dad let me listen to a pair of Sennheiser's he bought in the 80's. They sound amazing.
