    Had the turtle beach xo seven pro which are great headphones but needed an upgrade. Glad I went with the Astro’s the sound is incredible, build quality feels really nice and solid. The mix amp pro is nice to be able to switch the sound around and the Dolby atmos gives these headphones a step above, takes gaming to another level. Works with console and pc.

    First off I have owned Astros since 2009, including every release. Bought these as I wanted the upgrade plus I play Xbox and didn’t like the white color for previous gen. The sound is amazing as usual. The TWO main issues that I have had is with the paint finish coming off and the fact that Astro seems to have rushed this gen of Astro out without addressing the fact that it won’t assign as a headset on your XBOX. Iv done everything from redownloading firmware to them sending me a new replacement. It’s ridiculous to pay this much for a headset and it not be perfect. Ps there is still no firmware update for amp to assign XBOX profile so you can use chat. Astro did not provide a power button with this gen so you have to switch to pc mode, then back to XBOX mode to enable your mic to be assigned.

    Perfect for what I want. Wireless headsets always lose connection or die at the worst times. These are light, comfortable, sound great, and the mix amp is easy to use while in game. Very easy to tune to your liking with side tone and other sound options. They are not noise canceling which I like. Use on my pc and series x

    I have never owned a more comfortable gaming headset. Most headsets get too uncomfortable to wear after a few hours, but not these. The sound quality is fantastic. This headset paired with the mixer is one of the best purchases I have made for my gaming experience.

    I’ve always owned turtle beach headsets before I finally made the switch to the Astro A40s and if I would have know what I do now I would have made the switch sooner. The Astros a super comfortable and adjustable. Then add on top the pro mixer and your truly getting one of the best headsets money can buy.

    The headset and mix amp it’s self are amazing! The only downfall of this headset is getting it to work. I had to look up a couple set up videos and go to Reddit just to get these working with my Xbox. Now that I updated the firmware, reset my Xbox and tweaked my setting they final work.

    I got these because I got tierd of my buddies saying how terrible my mic sounded on my headphones. So I went to my local Best Buy. One of the guys there helped me out. I’m a person who hates buying things more than once so I want something that lasts. So the build quality and the fact that everything is modular and replicable really sold me. They work great on my gaming pc and I’m not disappointed. They make you sound like yourself as you would be in person.

    Great product; had to update the Mix amp on my PC before it worked on Xbox as I did not receive audio however it was fixed following the update! Mix amp and sound EQs are great and allow you to have upwards of four customs EQs based on preference. As someone who has been using wireless headsets for the last 5 years going back to wired has never been easier or more worth it. Sound quality 10/10 ease of use 8/10.

    Best Head set for large men doesn't squish the head and ears. I have owned Astros before and loved them, tried Logitech almost everyone of them had to return due to comfort. These are by far worth the extra for the comfort and sound.

    Made the switch from mid range turtle beaches ($80) to these and am very pleased I did. The sound quality is excellent and the mix amp is easy to control. The setup is a little intimidating out of the box but It is actually very simple. Highly recommend

    I've had my fair share of gaming headsets and this Astro a40 is on another level. The amount of customization you can you and the ability to use it with both a console and PC makes it even better. Sound quality is amazing and user interface is 10/10.
