I was really excited to get these and try them out. Lately, my old headset ($20) was starting to go out on me. So after doing research and reading some reviews for this product, I bought them. When I tried them out, they wouldn't connect to one of my controllers. I would plug the mix-amp into the controller, and it would turn the controller off and could not be turned back on. Luckily, they worked on my second controller. I was told by people in my Xbox party that I sounded a lot better, but the quality of their voices (and game audio) somehow sounded worse to me. Furthermore, every 10 minutes, a loud bit of static would come from the mic, twice, into my ears before disconnecting my controller for a couple of seconds. So not only does this headset deafen my ears with static and disconnect my controller, the sound quality is somehow worse than a $20 headset I've had for two years. I've used other ASTRO headsets in the past and haven't had this problem. If you're going with their headsets, DO NOT BUY the A40 TR's.

Awesome product, would definitely buy again.

Now I have tested a couple headset before I purchased the A40 TR + M80. I do wear glasses when I game. Testing period 2 weeks for A40 and a week for the other headsetsThe headsets I tested:Turtle Beach 600 (wireless) - Battery life was great, Sound was good but felt like it was of a mono sound, comfort level was not good for me - Headset didn't feel loud enough for me and left ear started hurting for me. I know everyone has different ears this is just my experience with them. Did have a EQ type feature to adjust the volume. Also chat wasn't working well, players saying I sounded like a robotTurtle Beach 700 (wireless) - Battery life was ok, not as great as 600. Sound felt low and wasn't enough for me, did feel like it had better durability than the 600. Took awhile to charge. 3 star rating Did have a EQ type feature to adjust the volumeSteel Series Artic 3 - (Wired) Sound was good but had to use the turtle beach adapter, did not like the fact that plugging it straight to the controller didn't work well. Using the adapter didn't bother me and it work fine after that. Comfort level was amazing most comfortable headsets. Sound was good but didn't feel like it was strong enough. 4 star (I am considering buying the wireless headset version along with still using A40)Now if you're looking for the best of the best and a great gaming experience I strongly suggest A40+M80. I read a lot of reviews and was disappointment because most of them was opinions and not experience. here is my experienceComfort is great can do an all day game session without ears hurting (5-8 hrs) Not the best from what i tested but good3 EQ settings on the M80 (good for if you want more bass etc..)Feels really durableSound is great. Exactly what I was looking for to hear footsteps etc.. The best sound out of the tested headsets above, games tested for footsteps and gun fire and overall sound - Fortnite, COD Black Ops 4, Forza Horizon 4, MK XL, Battlefield. When I played battle field it felt like I was in war for sure.The M80 volume button and volume adjust from game and voice feel great.Noise cancelling is great, I can't hear anything with the volume turn up about 3/4 (usually I have to play with it all the way up, not with these)No problems with the headsets, voice comes in clear and I can hear players just fine5 star rating. This headset fit my needs

Son excelentes, buen acabado de los materiales y de colores. Muy pero muy cómodos una vez ya puestos y también para descansar.

The item I was sent was different from what I order sadly, but in the short time I had the white one the quality was brilliant.Since then I have went and got another set as a lot of headsets didn't actually match upto this.Sound quality is brilliant and game quality is beyond superb.In pubg you can literally hear the butterfly's fart as you start a firefight. And no sneaking up either.Recommended highly if your a gamer.

Muy buenos, lo único malo de ellos, porque el sonido y el diseño son asombrosos, sería que cuando esta a todo volumen se escucha demasiado el ruido por fuera de estos, así que si te gusta escuchar música con sonido alto, compartirás con todos tus canciones

Hey, Hello, did my Headline get your interest? Well good, as you are here now anyway, why not stay a while and read this review?I can promise you something here and now today. When you have finished reading this review. You will have learned 3 new things.Stay with me for this, ok? Here we go:Now, without further ado, straight to the review:Today: ASTRO GAMING A40 HEADSETWell now finally here is a topic where I actually do know things about: Gaming Headsets.I am not a big COD or more precisely FPS gaming fan. But my buddies John and Kevin totally wanted to play the new COD WW2 all the time. So ok, I guess now I am playing FPS games. I had a Turtle Beach Elite for a long while now but it seemed kinda meh for COD. The sound was a little hollow and I was not a 100% happy with it. As I am really bad at FPS games I needed to upgrade my gaming accessories to at least have the slightest chance of doing anything helpful. So I went out and read a few reviews and everybody said the ASTROs were really good. Now I am not a great fan of wireless headphones so I decided to go with the A40 and not the A50s.That I would get the MixAmp with the Headphones was a given. As I said, I need all the help I can get.The sound was really good, but not like AMAZING. So back to Google I went. Was I doing something wrong?Turns out, there is a ProGaming Equipment Upgrade set for the ASTROS. Ok, I thought, lets see if that does the trick.I cant tell you how big the difference is. its the WORLD.Sound is great. Deep Base, you can hear all the steps, clear sound. Definitely get these and all the upgrade packs.Only issue now: I am still bad at COD. So I guess its still kinda about skill. At least now I can hear myself better while playing really bad.Better than nothingAs I promised you will learn 3 new things today, first the product review, and here are 2 amazing facts more:- Every Year on August 5th, the Mars Curiosity Rover celebrates the anniversary of its arrival by singing the Happy Birthday Song. To Itself. All alone. On Mars.- Queen Cleopatra was alive closer to the invention of the IPHONE than the construction of the Great Pyramid. Think about that..."Reviewing a better world.

Als Erstes, lohnt es sich 200€ für ein Headset auszugeben? Definitiv JA!Ich habe ein Headset zum zocken gesucht und bin nun endlich fündig geworden. Ich habe insgesamt sieben Headsets ausprobiert und kann nun berichten.Das A40 TR bietet einen super Klang der durch den MixAmp M80 noch leicht zur Baslastigkeit hin oder etwas weiter weg korrigiert werden kann. Es ist super stabil und qualitativ hochwertig gearbeitet nichts klappert und jedes Bauteil und jede Schraube scheint bedacht gesetzt und verbaut worden zu sein.Es ist ein Headset mit Ohrschalen die das Ohr umschließen und es hat eine offene Bauweise was bedeutet, daß man sobald man den Ton ausmacht die "Außenwelt" uneingeschränkt wahrnehmen kann. Die Vorteile liegen nahe: es ist am Ohr nicht so warm, man kann die eigene Stimme auch ohne voice monitoring wahrnehmen und man kann sich mit Außenstehenden bei ausgeschaltetem Ton normal unterhalten ohne das Headset abnehmen zu müssen. Nimmt man es allerdings ab, klappen die Ohrmuscheln so weg, daß man das A40 TR bequem um den Hals tragen kann. Alle Teile die den Kopf berühren sind aus Stoff und haben eine super weiche Schaumfüllung. Man kann stundenlang zocken ohne daß das Astro drückt oder nervt weil es nicht ganz richtig sitzt.Nun zum MixAmp M80. Wer kein Headset der Firma Astro hat kann mit diesem Adapter leider nichts anfangen da der Adapter keinen 3,5mm Klinkeneingang hat. Der MixAmp hat nämlich ein Kabel mit Stecker der direkt in das Headset gesteckt wird. Das Kabel ist für mich ausreichend lang, hätte aber auch nicht kürzer sein dürfen. Ansonsten bleiben bei diesem Adapter keine Wünsche offen. Jede Einstellung die man vornimmt wird kurz durch kleine Leuchtdioden angezeigt dazu gehört die Einstellung der Bassintensität, die Lautstärke und der Chat-Spielesound-Mix. Drückt man den Muteknopf leuchtet dieser dauerhaft.Jetzt noch zu einem weiteren Highlight. Das Headset ist modifizierbar. Sowohl die Stoff Ohrschalen und Kopfpolster wie auch die Abdeckplatten auf den Ohrmuscheln sind austauschbar. Mann kann die Stoffteile gegen Ledermuscheln und Lederpolster tauschen und die Abdeckplatten gegen welche mit Gummidichtung tauschen. Das dauert dank Magneten nicht einmal eine Minute und nun hat man ein komplett geschlossenes Headset und kann allen Nebengeräuschen "lebe wohl" sagen. Allerdings kostet dieses separat erhältliche Mod Kit zusätzliche 60 Euronen. Ich trage es lieber offen und nutze das Mod Kit nur zur Not.Soviel zum A40 TR in dieser Konfiguration. Wahrscheinlich ist aus dem Headset mit dem MixAmp pro noch mehr herauszuholen, für mich aber ist diese Kombination unschlagbar da es nur mit dem Controller verbunden werden muß und dann heißt es sofort: "Gentleman, please Start your engines" oder "Feuer frei".Verglichen habe ich: mit dem xbox Stereo Headset, dem Turtle Beach Ear Force One, dem Turtle Beach Ear Force Seven, dem Hyperx CloudX, dem Hyperx Cloud II und dem SteelSeries Siberia X300.Fazit: Das Astro A40 TR ist stabil, bequem, hat einen super Klang und ist mit dem MixAmp M80 unschlagbar in puncto Einfachheit und Komfort.Der einzige Nachteil ist der hohe Preis den man allerdings nach den ersten Spielstunden gern bezahlt hat weil man merkt daß man sich da was ganz feines sein Eigen nennen kann.
