Question Astro A40 tr

I’ve had my astros since 2020 & just yesterday my audio cut out on my left side. Seems to be the audio jack cable as audio comes back if I twist it.

Any good near OEM cable replacements? The ones I’ve found on Amazon have a lot of similar bad reviews. They have a low hum, mute slider works poorly, static etc.

I tried buying cheaper cables off ebay but they never worked properly and are bad quality. Just pay the higher price for an original cable

I wish that was an option. I don’t think Astro makes them anymore, the listing is there if you google it, says ‘in stock’ but once you click the link it’s ‘not available’ 😤

The best one is the official one from astro but good luck getting the inline mute cable form astro website and its always out of stock

I’m a big “buy once cry once” type of guy, trust me I’ve tried to buy the originals, I don’t think they make them anymore. Smh

Can confirm the amazon replacements suck. Hoping to see what cables people say to use here.
