    Great sounding headset with a great mic. It is however cumbersome with all the wires if you are gaming from across the room

    Merely an average and frankly overpriced headset. If you can get the amp separately with a headset you own it would be a better deal to be honest. I couldn't really notice the sound difference between this and my $100 headset. Its best to just get dolby atmos for $15 on xbox and use that with a current headset. Plus there are just too many wires. Not to mention the amp won't work through audio iptical on series x.

    I've been using the Astro brand for 10 years now, and after my first pair of TR A40S, that I used on the daily, bit the dust, I upgraded to this newer model and love them

    So I was disappointed to find that though the headphones work with the controller adapter, the mixamp pro tr is basically just charging and looking cool in the Series X usb port. After googling I found that an update needs to be done in order to update the firmware so it will work with the next gen console. I just did the update which was pretty quick, so at some point today I will try it out and give an update.

    I love astros, I have always bought them and I upgraded from the first Astro a40s to ever come out they still work perfectly after 10+ years so I expect these to last another 10 years.

    Coming from an Xbox series X owner. They are amazing to have no joke the quality aim these are the best I have ever had and gone though a lot of headsets. It a great product but with its downfalls with its set up. It’s not plug and play and the manual they give doesn’t not help at all!! So for any Xbox owner out there (sorry I don’t know for PlayStation owners could be the same set up) you need to update your mic amp firmware or it will not work at all. I had troubles I download the command center on my computer but the update did not show up even though I detected the mix amp and Astro headset. I found a YouTuber L3G3ND6 who has shared file updates you can download and on the command center you can manually updated the firmware from the download. Here’s the link https://youtu.be/mA2VPeMwdAc Another thing your Xbox has to say headset assigned or you won’t be able to use your mic. If doesn’t show up you have to do eaither a hard reset or a full shut down and unplug the mic amp then reconnect before starting your Xbox on again. This is what worked for me to get it all running. One last thing to add I found out after the fact you can download the command center from the Xbox Microsoft store so if you don’t have a computer by chance maybe giving that a go to see if it will update from there.
