HyperX Cloud III Wireless best setup

Hey guys,

The cans are great but you need to tweak them a bit.

  1. Install Ngenuity from Microsoft Store and update firmware.
  2. Restart.
  3. Turn On Mic Monitoring in Ngenuity because they have an amazing Side Tone (best I heard).
  4. DTS:X in Ngenuity stays off also you do not need any Equalizer since they are balanced (see picture).
  5. Close Ngenuity (it will stay in tray).
  6. Install DTS Unbound from Microsoft Store
  7. Open DTS Unbound and turn on DTS Headphone:X and DTS:X
  8. Go to System->Sound->And open the headphone settings as seen in picture.
  9. Set Audio Enhancements to Off and set Spatial sound to DTS Headphone:X
  10. Restart and Enjoy

EDIT: You should also change the microphone from 16k to 32k Hz. This will drastically improve the quality.

EDIT 2 (July 2024): These headphones are as good as dead after firmware fiasco. The latency is too high. Buy something else.
