Frequency response notes
SoundGuys measured a small bass rise below 100 Hz and elevated treble from 5 to 10 kHz. ANC changes the bass response substantially.7Reviewsoundguys.com/alienware-pro-wireless-headset-review-126031Read 23 October 2026SoundGuys B&K 5128 measurements versus its target. Headset 3.6.0, dongle 2.8.0. Different ANC modes were plotted separately. No regional peak or perceived-loudness percentage is substituted for full-range deviation or attenuation fields.
The curve looks a little odd but stays fairly close to the SoundGuys preference curve. It lacks the ear gain in the 2 to 3 kHz region. It does not roll off early in the upper frequencies.8Measurementsoundguys.com/hyperx-cloud-iii-s-wireless-review-138664Read 14 October 2026Review text on the measured curve against the SoundGuys preference curve. One sentence names the Cloud III Wireless, but it sits in the Cloud III S Wireless review, so it is read as this model's measurement. Measurement figures were not published as numbers.
