Headphone random conversation

Proprietary and flimsy? Why the heck would you make a proprietary headphone cable when they have been standardized for years?

Corporate greed probably. You must use our proprietary connectors, but we'll stop officially making them only years after the headset comes out. Makes no sense.

It's a great headset for gaming, I think audio is very clear, bass and treble are both crisp and punchy, it's extremely comfortable, but stuff like this upsets me. Just use a normal aux cable.

Especially if you don't sell the replacements yourself, or stop selling them.

Shame Hart Audio cables don't make replacement cables.

They not only ones who make hard to replace cables. Some headphones need deeper insertion, or they lock into place

The HyperX Cloud 3 S Wireless is the headset I may buy one day, highly recommended... though the cable thing is a worry I guess. Not if they are wireless lol... hmm. I almost bought them 2 weeks ago, when I didn't know what I wanted to buy next and needed something for Xmas gifts from family...
