The HyperX QuadCast S with RGB.

HyperX QuadCast S mic review — A pretty upgrade for livestreaming

HyperX updated one of my favorite livestreaming mics with RGB, so now it’s ready for some real gaming. The HyperX QuadCast now has a cousin called the HyperX QuadCast S. This device features a USB-C port instead of the micro-USB as well as that glittering RGB LED lighting. But otherwise, this is the same microphone.

Or, at least, it has the same specs on paper. And that’s why I’m confused about why I like the way it sounds better than the original QuadCast. Maybe RGB really does make hardware perform better.
