Customer Ratings & Reviews

These headphones are awesome. I was a little apprehensive of getting them to start with because of the price, but they are well worth it. The sound quality is phenomenal, and the comfort is out of this world. I had the Turtle Beach Earforce XO 4 Stealth before these. The Astros are in a whole different world. The Mix Amp Pro TR is really awesome, you can use it with your computer also. One of the best features of this head set is that it doesn't require you to be hooked up to the controller to work. I was a little worried about having a long enough wire connecting from the Xbox to my chair, but the one that came with it is plenty long enough. If you have the extra money, this headset is the one to buy.

Great console and pc headset. I would change the leangth of the cords on the headset. Other than that one flaw the headset is amazing.

The sound is crisp and defined. Easy to wear and blocks external sounds

Good quality, sound very good, very comfortable, what more do you need to know?

I’ve been back and forth about spending the money to buy the A40s for about a year or two. I have owned top of the line Turtle Beach headsets and I have used the Astro A10s and A20s, but I can honestly say these A40 are unreal. They change the game and give you a whole new gaming experience. The sound is so crisp and puts you in the game. The surround sound the A40s provide will give you a competitive advantage over other opponents. I love this headset and i dont know why I waited to pull the trigger. Sound quality is far superior to any other headset. The A40s are very comfortable for me to wear for an extended time. My only negative to the A40s is I wish they extended a little more for my big head. They fit and cover my ears and are comfortable, but it’s very close.

I’ve had these for about a week after returning a different headset and I am completely satisfied with these A40s with the mixamp. After hours of playing at a time the headset remains comfortable. My friends say I sound nice and clear in the party chat which makes me wonder if the people with issues didn’t upgrade the firmware. I also read to put the mic on streamer mode and that helps as well. The command center program is easy to use on the PC and comes with all the wires you need. I have Corsair Voids for my PC but I’m thinking about using this when I want to game because they sound a lot better. The surround sound is also immersive and spot on. I’m glad I spent an extra $100 from the returned pair for this higher quality.

I upgraded to the Astro A40's a few years ago from the Roccat Kave headset which was a true 5.1 set up. After trying several brands/ models the A40 was that headset that met my needs. Recently my original A40 mix amp started having problems that I blame on myself from knocking the amp off the desk one time too many. Instead of just replacing the mix amp I decided to go ahead and just and spend some coin and get the TR model and I really wanted the white and gray headset to. Adjustments can be made on the mix amp on the fly and with the TR model there's software to further tune to your preferences. As many of people have stated these are not audiophile headsets. If you are ready to drop the bucks and move up from those Wally World $20 cans your wearing now you won't be disappointed.

I have had alot of trouble with headsets these are by far the best. Ther very strong and good quality

My first thoughts about this headset is the comfort and build quality! These are extremely comfortable and feels very durable. The build is great. The sleek design is an immediate eye catcher. The sound quality is superb. There is an excellent range of customizability. The ability to be able to access the ASTRO Command Center allows me to customize the equalizer setting to however I please. I have this headset paired with the mod-kit offered by ASTRO. It allows background noise cancellation. The microphone blocks background noise very very well. I love this headset & wouldn't pick any other one! If you are on the edge between the A50s or these, grab these!

I purchased this headset to use with my Xbox one and PS4. I originally purchased the A50's, but returned them for these. They were heavy, and I actually prefer the separate mixamp compared to the built in one on the a50. The sound quality of these is fantastic! The mixamp works wonderfully. The biggest draw back to any of the Astro headsets is that the mixamp is not compatible with PS4 (or vice versa if you buy the PS4 set). You can use them for game audio on the PS4 but not for chat. You can plug the headset directly into the controller, but that really defeats the purpose of this set. I ended up buying a PS4 mixamp online for relatively cheap, and some longer cables. I was skeptical about spending the money on these at first, but well worth it!

I tried the wireless version but had problems of it having to be reset almost daily. These don't have that issue. I had to purchase extra long USB cable and Optical cable to allow me to set the 16' away from my 65" TV but it is worth it. I bought the windows/xbox version because it was on sale and since I use optical on all of my devices, ps4,xboxone, xbox, ps3, and cable, it works with them all. I have it plugged into my computer USB port since it is on all the time anyway, that way I don't have to start my xboxone every time I want to use them. The only thing that does not work is the microphone when I am playing on the PS4 but not a deal breaker for me. The are very comfortable for long periods for movies and games. i highly recommend them!

These Astro A40TR are the real deal if you want the best sound quality no matter what game your playing or even movie your watching. When talking with my friends they say they can hear me very clearly and with no static obviously because this is a wired headset. If you don't have a desk you can still use this headset from your couch living room area but beware there are two long cables that will go across your living room. Other than that the only complaint I have about this headset is the wire that connects to your headset and mix amp it gets tangled alot later on while your gaming, it's ok but I just toss the cable over my shoulder and it's not an issue anymore. Hands down best headset I ever owned I strongly recommend!

These are the most comfortable headphones I've come across. They have great sound and the mixamp tr with the abity to adjust master volume and game/party audio makes it perfect

This is a great headset with the mix amp and with out. It's pretty expensive But it's very good Quality. There so much you can do with the mix amp. The sound quality is amazing! If it's to expensive for you, you can buy the headset by it self for like $100 cheaper and then you can save up for the mix amp later.

For the last 5 years, I used Turtle Beach XO Fours headphones for gaming. I had been thinking about upgrading for the longest, and finally settled on these when they went on sale. I am so happy I did! When I would wear the XO Fours for more than an hour, my ears would start to hurt. The first time I put the Astros on......I didn't even feel like I was wearing them. Hours later, still just as comfortable. The sound is amazing, and can be tweaked with the included MixAmp. It still can't replace true surround sound, but it sure comes close!

The Astro A40 TR with the Mixamp Pro is easily one of the best headsets on the market. The ability to customize the sound with the Mixamp pro makes even the most hardcore of hardcore have options. The Mod Kit (sold separately) gives fans of this headset the choice to turn their A40's into something a little more personal. The headset overall is the most comfortable headset I've ever worn for an extended period of time. Between the comfort, the sound, and the customizable ability, the Astro A40's with the Mixamp Pro is easily one of the best headsets on the market. Even years after its original release.

These headphones are absolutely amazing. Remember, these are wired so if you are looking for wireless, these definitely aren't for you; as they can cause a cluster of wires. I have used these frequently for Xbox One and PC. On PC you can download a equalizer app and modify these in more detail. Overall great product! BE CAREFUL! The power cable plugs into the back of the mixer. This cable and the connector inside the mixer are easily broken. I have researched this, as my cable has already gone out within a few weeks of use. Just be careful if you are continuously unhooking the cable or moving the mixer around like I am.

You could hear everything perfectly. You hear the guys upstairs and all around. It's basically like you're ears are in the game.

i recently purchased the A40's with the MixAmp Pro, it is worth the extra money to get the MixAmp and 7.1 sound. With awareness and deal silence on BO3, you're a killing machine. Wish you could hear your own voice when talking because it can be hard to hear yourself talk. Great headsets.

Headset is amazing. Used for my phone as well. You can adjust the equalizer for varies options. Headset is for hardcore gamers. Surround sound is a place for when watching movies late at night and doesn't want to make noise.
