FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–HyperX, the gaming peripherals team at HP Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced it has surpassed the one million shipping milestone1 with its line of USB microphones. Initially introduced into the microphone market in 2019, the HyperX QuadCast(TM) USB microphone became a popular choice for gamers, streamers and influencers. As demand for microphones increased, HyperX expanded its portfolio with the customizable QuadCast(TM) S and affordable SoloCast(TM) to fulfill the need for gamers, content creators, students, and WFH pros to be heard and stay active in their communities and productive at work.
“HyperX is pleased to support a thriving community of content creators, influencers and gamers with the highest quality gaming products to meet their individual setup needs,” said Kevin Hague, general manager, HyperX. “Our continued efforts have created a lineup of microphones that deliver clear and consistent sound not only for gamers, streamers, and casters, but also students and business professionals alike.”
HyperX microphones feature a unique, easy-to-use tap-to-mute sensor with LED status indicator, offering users a visual LED lighting cue when the microphone is active. These versatile microphones also fit 3/8-inch and 5/8-inch threaded setups for compatibility with most mic stands and boom arms.2 All HyperX microphones are compatible with PC, PS4(TM) and Mac(R) and work on major streaming platforms like Streamlabs OBS, OBS Studio, and XSplit and are certified by Discord and TeamSpeak(TM).
