Why would you get hate for Astros? I have a40s and they've been the best headset I've had by a long way, I'm not a massive "sound guy" so I don't really care about the small things, but I needed a headset that was wireless for both PC and occasionally Xbox, and Astros where the best headset that fit the bill by a long way. Granted I've had them probably 6 years now.
r/buildapc • Best Wireless Gaming Headset Worth Buying Today ->I have a pair of Astro A40 TR’s & they work perfectly for HLL.
r/HellLetLoose • Best Headset? ->I would say don’t go near Astro at all. Their wired headsets have a known issue with the Mixamp that’s unfixable and if you’re one of the unlucky ones (I was) they will stonewall and do everything in their power to not rectify the situation. Build quality has also gone downhill since they are now under Logi. TL;DR - Fuck Astro.
r/buildapc • Gaming headset recommendations for my husband ->My Astro (now by Logitech) headphones work great. No driver download needed with usb and surround. Remember that 3.5mm means in-game software is needed for surround and is worse than usb sound.
r/linux_gaming • Advice for Linux gaming headphones ->I’ve had the Astro A40TRs for over 4 years and I’d definitely recommend them. The only downside is that the Astro software isn’t the greatest but it works. I haven’t found a better sounding gaming headset, aside from wear on the paint then they look and work how they came out the box 4 years ago.
r/gamingpc • Best pc gaming headset ->i have the a40 trs and i hear everything with the comtac 5s. if you want, you can also use fxsound and bump it up a little
r/Tarkov • Best In game Headset!??? ->Can’t you just turn down the microphone sensitivity in windows or discord? Nobody complains about my sound and have had my A40 TR+amp for 7 years now
r/iRacing • I've reached my snapping point - I need headphone recommendations ->Ahh okk gotcha! Didn’t know it was ever an issue with them. The only complaint i’ve gotten is to move my mic away from my face when someone is up my ass for over a lap ahaha
r/iRacing • I've reached my snapping point - I need headphone recommendations ->I LOVE my Astro A40 headset. Build quality is excellent and they sound amazing. I even bought a second pair for my Xbox, I liked them that much. Seriously, I think you’d be extremely happy with these: https://amzn.to/484EAJW
r/simracing • What headsets/headphones are you using ->Why is everyone recommending a sep mic and headphone option? Been gaming for 25 years on pc, headset option was always better and favorable for gamers I thought. From playing d2 LoD to d2r and cs 1.6 to cs2, I’ve hardly met anyone who uses a 2 piece setup. I thought that was just a thing for streamers so their streams didn’t have the shitty audio back then. I bought a yeti mic like 10+ years ago for streaming but then you had the whole ass mic in your face and that was the first thing to go when I stopped lol Anyways I got some astros tr, customized the eq so I could hear footsteps better in csgo/cs2, then I just rocked it for all games. If they misstep, I probably heard it.
r/buildapc • Gaming Headphones for Husband ->They have to be buying absolute garbage then lol, everyone I talk with on disc or in game in whatever game usually comes through decently where you can clearly hear every word they’re saying. Probably only ran into a handful of ext mic users but they’re usually streaming (with no one watching the stream lol). I might have to hook up my ext mic now and test
r/buildapc • Gaming Headphones for Husband ->I’ve had Astro A40TRs for more than a decade and they’re still going strong. Have to recommend.
r/buildapc • Best PC gaming headset ?? ->Astro A40 TR with the mix amp. It’s what I use for competitive gaming. Can hear footsteps through walls
r/buildapc • Best PC gaming headset ?? ->Astro a40s with the mix amp. Recommend 💯
r/DayzXbox • What headset would you recommend? ->Some do rank okay. I got Astro A40 TRs because they reviewed as well (on professional sites like rtings) as the equivalent Sennheisers and were actually in stock at the store that had my credit.
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->I got some custom Astro A40 TR’s they’re dope
r/pcmasterrace • I analyzed the 25 most recommended gaming headsets on reddit ->hd560s sound way better than astros did. i’ve had a40s and a50s both. iri cod player and masters apex player.
r/sennheiser • Is someone using sennheiser for gaming? ->Some of us arent worried about $400. Astros are amazing
r/buildapc • Best PC gaming headset ?? ->Please stay away from ASTRO (at least their wireless ones, they are garbage, the wired ones are just not really worth the money but at least fine to use). The only gaming branded actually good headsets I know of are from beyerdynamic mmx (f.e. Mmx 300) series and partly steelseries arctis series. Also: an actual headset or headphones? Headsets in general are much less worth the money because of the mic, if it's actually needed fine, but if you have an external mic anyways I really wouldn't get one. Also consider if wired is an option.
r/buildapc • Gaming headset recommendations for my husband ->Yea I had a a40 once (in exchange for the God knows worst audio device I ever had - a50) without the mixamp. Yea don't go with them, I was just giving some options, I'm myself full on iems because price to performance is just leagues away.
