HyperX QuadCast 2 (2024)

The QuadCast 2 is a multi-pattern USB condenser microphone aimed at streamers, connecting to a computer or console over USB-C at up to 24-bit/96kHz. It is bus-powered, so a single USB-C cable handles both data and power, and HyperX includes a USB-C-to-USB-A adapter for older ports. A 3.5mm headphone jack on the body provides real-time monitoring without going through software. To set it up you need a USB-C cable to your host and 3.5mm headphones for monitoring.
