    Great build quality, but firmware update is needed

    This is an amazing headset. The Astro Command Center (proprietary software from the vendor) checks for firmware updates, but for some reason did not grab the latest firmware update for me. When I first plugged this in, the xbox couldn't properly detect it. It saw a generic device. After searching around, I found a reddit post of a user that provided a link to their latest firmware updates and the latest stable build worked for me. Otherwise, I love the mix amp functionality and this is a great product! It seems more stable to me than the wireless A50 edition which started having connectivity issues for me after 5 years of moderate use.

    I purchased gen-one astro A50s (wireless) and had zero issues. Outside of no issues, I could wear that headset from full charge to no battery and my ears or head never hurt. Those headphones were still working perfectly, but I wanted something new, and wired, so I had to get another pair of astros. I love this headset and also love the astro comfort. Would recommend to anyone who wears headsets for long hours. Also, take advantage of the Astro command center to fine tune your sound. Simply google "best astro music preset" and you will see user generated EQ settings. I can't adjust the EQ, so I trust those that can. Wanted to pass that note along for future users to maximize the value of their headset

    After a lot of research and trying to decide if I wanted to pay a high price for a set of gaming headphones, I finally pulled the trigger on the Astro's. It's a decision I don't regret at all. They are by far the best gaming headphones I have ever used. A big plus for the A40 TR is a 2 year subscription to Dolby Atmos. I use them for Xbox and PC with the MixAmp Pro. If anyone is on the fence about purchasing these, don't think twice and get them
