I have the 2nd Gen Stealth 700s and they have constant echo issues and don't connect to the app whatsoever to fix. As well as I have to plug them into my laptop once a month to "restore" them. They also go on weekly shut offs where I can't use them for a week, this is when I have to "restore" them. Turtle Beach refuses to fix this issue, horrible customer support.

Depends which player I am using to play the disk. If I am using my Panasonic UB820, then my Bose QuietComfort headphones. If I am using my Xbox Series X, then my Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 headphones.

I love my Turtle Beach Stealth 700's, they are exactly what I was looking for

Are you sure you got the A50x? I just bought them too and they're pretty great. One thing stuck out, you mentioned clamping force. I just moved on from the Audeze Penrose (ridiculous clamp when they were new) and just tested the Arctis Nova Pros. I also have Turtle Beach Stealth 700 in the house, also ridiculous clamp. I think the Astro A50x is the most comfortable headset I've ever tried out of the box. One of the first thoughts that I has when first putting them on was how light the clamp was. It has way less clamp than Audeze and Turtle Beach, and slightly less than the Nova Pros. After customizing the EQ, they're easily the best headset I've ever used for spatial awareness and footsteps for FPS games and it's not close, really.

I have the same problem. For reference, when I wear bike helmet, I wear 62cm. Baseball cap size is XL or 7 3/4. I currently use Nova Pro 7, but the mic quality is not the best, and the sidetone has static noise. I have been using it for 3 years and looking for new one with better sound quality, mic and sidetone. Prior to this, I was using Sennheiser HD 598cs (same as 569), it's comfortable, but mic wasn't great and its wired. Here are the headphones I bought and returned due to small size. (either too tight or don't cover my earlobes) Logitech G Pro X2, Astro A50 gen5, Turtle Beach Stealth 700, EPOS H6Pro open, HyperX Cloud III, Nova Pro Wireless , Nova Pro 5. Drop PC37X, Sony Pulse, Sony Pulse Elite, Sony H5 Inzone. The only one that fit my head comfortably is Asus ROG Delta II, but the app is too buggy and sidetone didn't work for me.

Understandable. This is the first pair I've owed. Typically I used Turtle Beach stealth series. The Astros are so much better than any Turtle Beach I've used but I've seen a lot of ill will towards Astros online and people mention a drop in quality after joining forces with Logitech. But luckily I've had no issues. Definitely something you have to baby though for the astro(lol)nomical price
