HyperX QuadCast 2: price & specs

Specifications

Source: hyperx.com (verified 2026-07-07) · corroborated by amazon.com. Primary source hyperx.com/products/hyperx-quadcast-2-usb-microphone re-fetched and loaded fully; it confirms the exact model (SKU 872V1AA, "HyperX QuadCast 2 – USB Microphone", "$149.99 MSRP"). Verbatim support for each spec: "Element Three 14mm electret condenser capsules" (condenser); "Polar Pattern Cardioid, omnidirectional, stereo, bidirectional"; "Frequency Response 20Hz - 20kHz"; "Connection Type USB-C, 3.5mm headphone output" (connectivity USB-C + headphone jack); "Tap-to-Mute Sensor" (mute button); "upgraded 24-bit, 96kHz recording" (bit_depth 24, sample_rate_khz 96); "included shock mount and desktop stand", "redesigned detachable shock mount", and "The shock mount joint is also compatible with 3/8" and 5/8" threading" (mount). This is the standard QuadCast 2 (24-bit/96kHz), distinct from the QuadCast 2 S (32-bit/192kHz). No release date appears on the page, so releaseDate/release remain null. CORRECTION on re-verification: the Amazon corroboration URL (B0D9MCK4R8) did NOT load in this session — it returned only a bot-wall "Continue shopping" page with no product data, so it provides no corroboration. The earlier provenance claim that Amazon corroborated Model Name, Connector Type, polar patterns, Mute Function, and frequency response is unsupported and retracted. All spec values, priceUsd, and the exact model are nonetheless independently confirmed by the primary manufacturer source, so the entry is published on that basis.
