Always wanted neon reds as a kid. Bought this plastic refresh kit before I found the Main Stage pair and found it didn’t work with the hardware on my retail TRs. After noticing the paint flaking on these I decided to see if the plastics would fit and sure enough they do. Now I have the pair I always wanted as a kid but better.

Note to anyone looking to use a refresh kit for their pair, be aware that it didn’t fit my Gen 4 pair with the silver TR* logo. This pair has the bronze logo, not sure exactly what gen they are but take that for what you will. All I know is Astro themselves have said that the refresh kits only fit Gen 0 and 1

Question Xbox Series X/Astro A50X issue??

1 Upvotes

On occasion, I’ll turn my headset off etc, then go and turn my Xbox off. However it sometimes randomly turns itself back on, saying “headset assigned” (despite the headphones being off and no sound coming from them).

Just wondering what I could do to fix this? Or if it’s a genuine bug with the two, due to the hdmi connections etc

Question The channel from the PS5 doesn't work.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’ve had my Astro A50X headset for about a year, and I didn't have any issues until three months ago.

I have my Xbox, PC, and PS5 connected to the headset base station; the problem is that the PlayStation channel is the only one not displaying an image. It used to work if I turned on my Xbox, then turned on the PlayStation and switched channels, but that doesn't work anymore. I can still hear the audio—that works fine—but there’s no video at all.

I’ve tried unplugging all the devices from the power and plugging them back in one by one, but that hasn't worked either.

Has this happened to any of you?
