    Absolutely awesome! I had a turtle beach headset and it’s incredible how clear and the direction of sound the headset provides when playing call of duty. The only thing that sucks about is of course the cable management but other than that it’s okay (I don’t like wireless so I deal with cables )

    This headset is the best headset for its quality, but the price might be a bit too much so it gets 4 stars

    After reading many reviews I decided to go with these headphones very pleased with my purchase money well spent they are not the loudest headphones the selling point for me was the preciseness of sound when playing games and the fact that it came with the mix amp which is the sound card that my computer does not have.

    I got these a while ago and the sound you cannot compare to anything else. I love the mixamp and being able to control various aspects of the audio. Also having the ability to use it on my phone is great. They really do cancel out all background noise as well!

    Over all the mic is great for the casual gamer and more experience. A very easy setup with sturdy materials. Sound quaintly is great for movies and games alike, due to the different sound settings hat are available. The only negative thing i would say another the headset is the mic audio. It has a very hard time picking up low to whispering audio. So unless you are taking at a normal voice volume, the mic will consistently cut out.

    My son had this headset first and really liked it. We purchased a more expensive one at $250 once he could not find this one. We had major issues with it and within a week it the left headset stopped working. We went back to Best Buy and repurchased this one for $99! Definitely worth it!

    Sounds are very crisp and clear. Takes your game to a new lvl when you can hear every direction perfectly clear. Mixamp helps out so much if you have a chatty friend that is always talking at the wrong time being able to still hear him and game sound perfectly with a turn of the nob

    Excellent sound and build quality. I opted to purchase the noise cancelling kit online and the sound quality improved on all already high quality sound. I definitely recommend these. I no longer get snuck up from behind in first person shooters and mic quality is excellent as well.

    I didn’t realize what I was missing. I’ve used $100 headsets that are ok. I bought a pair of these for $200. I was amazed to hear with Ive been missing. These have excellent directional speakers. They really help you find your target. These are well worth the money.

    This is the best pair of gaming headsets I've ever owned. I've gone through razer products as well as logitech, but nothing compares to this. I might actually go and buy the Wireless A50s that just released. If you don't mind the wire, these are perfect. Prefer wireless, to for the new A50s

    For gaming I love this. Had to tweak the equalizer a little bit for my deep voice to come through as I wanted it. With the mixhub built in, the user can change from 100% party chat to game chat or find the blend that works well for them. So easy

    You simply get what you pay for with these headphones, Everything about them speaks quality. The mix amp comes with a EQ for that perfect sound for every game. They are sturdy and can be customized with "speaker tags" and mic. I recommend the Astros if budget is not a concern.

    Bought these an an upgrade over the Logitech G430s for the wife. Huge upgrade, she loves them. Been using ASTRO a50s for years now, love the a40s, kind of have headset envy because she doesn't have to charge them, and for PC gaming they are perfect.

    This headset is so great! If you want a true gaming experience, try these out! In my opinion, they’re absolutely worth the price!! But make sure that you have a port on your console or TV for the optical Cable or you will need an adapter
