A40 (Gen 1)

I have had my A40’s for a long time too, only 2 headphones I won’t get rid of are my HD560S and A40’s, the A40 with Mixamp Dolby Processing is actually really good too. For stereo though the HD560S is actually insanely good.

Astro a40 with mixamp, I have not tried the a50s yet. Best headset I have found.

Yeah, the quality of the sound is just bounds ahead of other headsets and has been for years.

I personally use Astro a40s and they work great. A lot of people recommend the steelseries arctis nova 7, so if I were you, I'd go for those if you're able to afford them.

Astros. I have a40s that are over 10 years old, used daily for zoom & games.

Wired and no batteries, one that has no app to bug out. No batteries to die in 5 years. No firmware to bork and die. Oh the ancients made those it's a lost art.. Aliens showed us and we forgot. I got my MK1 Mixamp and A40s back when they were current, and with care and (replacing the stock mic entirely) are still going strong, and the surround function still just works. No firmware, no app. Just usb SPDIF and good times.

I’ve used Astro A40’s with mixamp for like 7-8 years then just recently got the wireless Astro A50’s about 2 years ago and I have never had a problem with them

Big on the Astros. Have the A40s and they’ve been phenomenal going on 6 years.
