Customers regard the A40 TR Wired Gaming Headset as having excellent sound quality and comfortable design, with many praising the MixAmp's functionality and customization options. However, some customers find the headset expensive and have noted compatibility issues with certain consoles, along with concerns about weight and setup complexity. The headband's durability has also been questioned by a few users. Overall, the positive feedback on audio and comfort is significant, but potential buyers should consider the price, compatibility, and weight before purchasing.
Incredible Sound & Quality! The A40 with MixAmp Pro is truly amazing and since I wanted to reaming with the best expirience possible I got the Optical adapter made my Best Buy Insignia which works great! Since the astro Optical adapter was sold out I couldnt wait and got the insignia adapter which does not come with an extra HDMI cord like the Astro one does. You will need to HDMI cords as one goes from the playstation into front of adapter and the second HDMI goes into back of adapter then to your tv. I have an extra 2.0 HDMI cords and after hook up everything sounds grest. Keep in mind if you have the newest 2.1 HDMI tv’s then these current adapters would not work properly for the best expiroence and hopfully Astro makes a 2.1 adapter so everyone old and new can enjoy amazing headset with Optical! Microsoft and Sony really should have left the optical port on their next gen consoles and that was a bad decision on both of them! Thank goodness this adapter is made because the optical set up along with the Mix Amp Pro makes gaming an even better experience! They are very durable, the quality is great and I reccommend always keeping headsets stored in a headset case for a longer lifespan. Hanging them in a room on a headset stand will shorten the life. Storing them in a case keeps it from invisible dust and humidity that can shorten the life over time.. Your headset will last longer keeping them in something like the Astro Headset carrying case. I know you might want to display the elegant look of them but keeping them in a case keeps them in better shape as the human eye cant see all the wear and tear always. I love the design of the Astro 40’s/50’s and the reason they hold around the same retail value for so many years is their disign was ahead of its time! Its that good from aesthetics to quality you cant go wrong with this headset! Now, with all mass produced items their will be some odd cases where someone gets a defective headset, but keep in mind no matter how high end the item somewhere down the production run will have defects! Every product has a defect rate so if you ever get a bad one with any electronic dont judge thinking like its a bad product since you were unlikely that time getting a defect. It happens and things like that can be resolved fast with the store. Its also. Some consumers think they tale care of their things when they really take care of them poorly. So, when someone trashes an item for not working or breaking I would suggest not just listening to them but what the majority is saying. When you pick up this headset you can feel the Quality and craftsmanship that goes into an a40 headset as well as the Mix Amp Pro feels like good quality with a nice soft bottom to the touch. I have the a40 Halo edition for Xbox with Mix amp Pro TR & the a40 for Ps4/Ps5 With Mix Amp Pro and... Both headsets I got the optical adapter and now my a40’s are sounding great on next gen consoles!

ASTRO A40TR Gaming Headset & MixAmp Pro - Black, : Best headset I’ve ever used. Positional sound is amazing, everything is accurate and detail is incredible. Very comfortable, can wear for hours without becoming hot or uncomfortable. A good range of adjustment for different head shapes/sizes
