The success is also well founded. Their Cloud Orbit S, essentially the HyperX version of Audeze impressive Mobius, highlighted the power of WavesNx/3D head tracking sound and their iconic Cloud II has been a staple recommendation by gamers for years. It will be exciting to see what future things come, especially with HP now backing them.
