    Best headset I have ever owned.

    There is a reason this headset has the industry reviews they do. They're the best. They sound great for games, music, movies, all of it. The settings are numerous for all those things as well. The side by side bluetooth connection to other devices is way more helpful than it has any right to be. The mic placement is nice and being retractable is perfect. The battery system is brilliant. Having on the external controller is also a nice thing to have visually for both volume control and settings on the fly. They are also built solid. They don't feel cheap in any part of the build at all. I gave them 5 stars, even though there are some caveats. Comfort wise, I have a larger head and the strap (adjustable) digs into my scalp on longer gaming sessions. For *most* people I don't see this being an issue, and I admit they sit a little oddly on my head. The earcups MUST be replaced with after-market ones. The stock foam earcups rub the active noise cancelling mic just underneath the cup itself causing feedback/static. I had worried my new $350 headset was defective when it's actually a known issue with various models of this headset. The only solve that works 100% of the time (google/reddit are your friend here) is replacing the cups with third party ones. The set I bought are also way more comfortable than the stock pads. I slept on getting a pair of these for years and now look back regretting not having bought them sooner. You won't be disappointed.

    Ok this is what i like the sound is amazing for gaming out of the box you are gonna need to update the software to make it even better. I also used them for music and i didn't expect they sound to be this good with some good bass. The downside of these headsets are the mic is ok thats 1 of the reasons its not 5 starts and the comfort of those ear pads they get pretty warm and hug your ears tight after along game session. If it wasn't for the ear pads getting warm these would be a good 5 star's be i can deal with the mic.

    This Headset has always caught my attention since its release.. I bought them at launch and was so upset as the ANC nubs would literally test against my ears causing too much discomfort, and comfort is most important to me, the sound, the features, were extremely impressive of course. However, I just bought the PlayStation version of these as I ordered wicked cushions to help mitigate the discomfort of the nubs.. before I swapped the ear cups I tried them on and I was shocked, what happened to the ANC nubs?! Come to find out after much research steel series redesigned the size and somewhat shape of the ANC nubs. It’s extremely comfortable with or without aftermarket ear pads and It blows every other headset I’ve tried sound wise especially out of the water! Very pleased with it and happy I decided to grab these again and give them another chance. If you’re on the fence, grab it. You won’t be sorry.

    Overall GREAT headset. Bought this for my partner’s PC setup and they love it. We recently had to warranty it since it was not connecting to his PC, only his computer. But we bought it March 2023, so it lasted a great time without problems. Amazing quality, I have the older version myself.

    These heaphones are great even top 10 in the gaming headphone market, but there are somethings about these headphones that could use improvement. First in the fit of the headphones are great, but some people might find that the little noise canceling bit inside the cups might irritate your ears. Second the mic could use improvement. You could change it if you are on PC but on console you are out of luck.

    My astro a50 broke so i tried steelseries overall much better quality and easier to use with ps5 the Base was better in the Astros though, and i personally prefer foam ear cups over vinyl, but i can be in a ps chat and then connect my phone for discord or xbox chat all simultaneously witch is amazing so steelseries are definitely my new favorite even got the 7+p for my pc as well

    Great product. Plenty of options for connectivity. Very well made. Sounds really good, specially if you download the software to alter the sounds to your likings. Mic is not that great, if you are recording a lot of audio, invest into something better like a pro mic. But for the most part, this is great

    Hands down one of the best gaming headsets you could have. If you're a real gamer and you care about your sound quality it's no reason not to have these. You can hear EVERYTHING!

    Honestly my favorite headset I’ve owned. It only loses 1 star because after several hours they are not the most comfortable. I don’t have an issue with the bump in the ear up’s that many reviews mention. They just get hot and give me a slight headache. This is after like 8+ hours though so I can’t complain much. However, compared to some open back headphones I have the discomfort is more obvious. All in all 4.7/5 so I rounded up.

    Great fit and sound quality. My only issue is despite the settings on my video game console and on the interim module that comes with this item, the sound doesn’t revert back to tv automatically when headphones are turned off. I have to manually switch the audio settings back to my sound bar because every time I turn on my console the headphones & module commandeers the audio even when headphones aren’t turned on.

    I really enjoy them. Although the earcups are a little shallow and can press up to my ears, cause slight discomfort overtime. And the Sonar software can be funky at times. Nothing that can't be simply fixed though.

    Now its a bit pricey , but you get nice features , i still think these should be 50-80$ cheaper , but you get two batteries , you can always be charging one while using one so you never run out of battery life just swap them . Also you can easily be connected to to two consoles and easily swap between the two which is cool

    the best gaming headset I've ever had, and I've had a lot. being able to change out the battery on the fly so that I NEVER have to plug it in is incredible. and I really enjoy the sonar software. completely replaced more complicated third party software for me.
