HyperX revealed two new headsets at CES 2019: the Cloud Orbit and Cloud Orbit S, as well as the HyperX Quadcast microphone. The microphone is HyperX's first standalone mic and features a built-in shock mount.
Both Cloud headsets feature 100mm planar magnetic drivers from Audeze, and Waves NX head tracking technology is part of the Cloud Orbit S.
The Audeze drivers use "extremely thin-film speakers and powerful custom magnets" to produce "realistic spatial audio," according to HyperX.
Waves NX bring a "360-degree audio environment" to the Cloud Orbit S. In the real world, you might hear a distant sound and turn your head to better hear it, and Waves NX head tracking keeps sound sources where they should be in relation to your position. This makes it a good fit for VR applications, where traditional headphones lack the "movement" of sound.
