    One of the best headsets I have purchased. The mixer makes it so easy to isolate one sound from another and they are pretty comfortable. Definitely recommend

    My absolute favorite headset I’ve ever used. Great for every use. You can hear footsteps in FPS games amazingly and the mix amp is a huge bonus.

    Pretty good product, this is the 2nd one i bought.i ahve the prior generation that are white. They both just seem to lose the abikity to dock and you have to use the cable to charge them. It is the wnd set that has the same problemm i have above average size head , this is a bot pricy so i would not expect that. Also it xan jave periods of frequent disconnection. Whsn it works it works so well and rhey are so anazingly comfortable they are hard to replace.

    It was a good headset and I think it’s good for the money! If u want a good headset that’s not to expensive this is the one. Did break after a year but no other problems with it.

    First of all, if you are a owner of previous gen of the a40, and want to upgrade, I don't recommend. I owned a Astro A40 +MixAmp from 2014 and decided to upgrade as they where aging. However the difference between both of them won't be amazing so don't expect. HOWEVER, these headphones are top tier quality, the fact that the old astros sound almost as good, shows how future proof this product is. If you are a new user, you will love this headset. Great audio, and the mixAmp pro is super convinient. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new gaming headset.

    Best sound quality I've heard in headphones or external speakers obviously. The details in games and music are very vivid. Been hearing things I've never heard before in Halo: MCC, like hearing the particles of sand/insulation crumbling down a building. Can hear footsteps well and enemies reloading with ease. I can also play hi fidelity music from my phone by inputting aux into the mix amp. Aux input is able to play back 16-bit music into the A40 headset. It sounds so detailed, I use it for music from my smartphone when I'm not gaming.

    This Astro headset has incredible sound - however unlike the Arctic Pros witless, this headset doesn’t have the easy line out and line in ports like the steel series does. That was enough for me to return it. I thought I could utilize the “stream port” for my GOXLR needs but ultimately wasn’t what I needed. However as far as sound quality if you don’t need those features, it’s incredible. Probably the best sounding headset I ever had.
