It seems like you have the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless. There are a few replacement microphones on Amazon ,they’re not exactly the same model. But they might work well enough for you:https://www.amazon.com/s?k=HyperX+Cloud+Alpha+Wireless+mic&i=electronics&ref=nb_sb_noss_2 Most reviews complain about t

i feel you on wanting an upgrade from the nova pros. honestly the Audeze Maxwell is probably your best bet under 350, the planar magnetic drivers give way better clarity and the mic is solid too. if you want something closer to the steelseries vibe the EPOS H6 Pro open back has a similar DAC friendl

steelseries nova 7 / nova pro wireless are solid if you want everything in one place. hyperx cloud alpha wireless is also good if battery matters more than extras. aprt from these, turtle beach stealth 600 gen 3 is worth a look too, simple setup, decent wireless + mic for gaming, does the job withou

i feel you, just need something solid for talking with friends. hyperx cloud alpha has really clean audio and the mic is surprisingly good for the price, usually under $150. if you want wireless, the logitech g435 is light and the mic works fine for discord calls. both will cover basic comms without

had the same fear about wireless delay but honestly modern stuff is solid. the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless gives you both options and the mic detaches cleanly. best buy carries it around $180. if you want to stick near razer, the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro has a removable hyperclear mic and zero lag i'

i ran into this exact thing with my old a50s. honestly for mic monitoring and wireless under 200, check the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7. it has sidetone control and 38 hour battery. another solid pick is the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless - 300 hour battery but mic monitoring is decent. if you want somet

The Xbox Wireless Headset has absolutely ridiculous bass out of the box, so you will need to reign that in with a bit of EQ. Great for convenience with Wireless connectivity though. The Razers have dogwater audio and seemingly reliability too, avoid them unless you are going after convenience. I can

Just a quick heads up - HyperX Cloud 3s aren't really all that bassy if at all, which I have found to disappoint many people online, so if you're looking for a more traditional yet still good sounding headset (to the untrained ears at least), maybe look for the HyperX Cloud Alphas instead, or maybe

Just a quick warning though (I doubted this was true, but I just have tested it myself and sadly it is, though I haven't noticed for the 2 or 3 years I have it) - the HyperX Cloud Alpha headset is notorious for having slight crosstalk on their headphones - that basically means that the audio signal
