Q: QuestionDoes these headphones work for PS4 ? In Astros website they give you options to choose what console and this one does not give an option.
Asked by billy.
- A:Answer Yes it does. I just got them today in the mail and it said “Xbox one” on them so I was kinda upset because I thought I would have to exchange them. But there’s a switch on the back to change it from Xbox one to PC mode and it works with PS4 on PC mode.

Q: QuestionSo there are 3 versions (correct me if am wrong) Ps4, Xbox, and one that isn’t for any but is compatible with Pc like this one. Can this specific headset be compatible with ps4 even if it’s not the ps4 version?
Asked by IvanC.
- A:Answer There are only 2 versions for gen 4 astro A50. PS4 version and XBOX ONE version, both compatible with pc. Model number 939-001673 is ps4/pc version (black) and model number 939-001680 xbox (gray). Both have a switch at the back of base station for console or pc. This headset is great Only downside is the price.

Q: QuestionCan the A50 be charged without having to use the console? If so, what can I use?
Asked by Gerry.
- A:Answer I assume you mean the base when you say "console". There is a micro USB port on the bottom next to the contact pads for charging on the base. I briefly plugged it in that way, and it seemed to work as a charger. If so, I will be using that going forward, as the base as a charger is stupidly horrible design.

Q: QuestionWill this be compatible with playstation 5?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer It’s going to work a little differently depending on which system you opt for, as well as by headset model. Wired sets like the A10, A40, and A40TR will continue to use the 3.5mm port on both the Xbox and PlayStation controllers. Wireless rigs like the A20, the MixAmp Pro TR, and A50 Wireless will work via USB with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X; the latter system requires the headset to download a firmware update. For a full audio mix on the PS5, gamers will need to pick up an HDMI adapter from the company’s website for $40.
