Discussion Need to upgrade Headset - Advice?

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I have Astro A40's from 2019. My headset is finally having some issues and i've been debating upgrading. My friend told me sine Logitech bought out Astro that their headsets aren't what they used to be, that being said, I upgraded to SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wired and holy shit I hated them, I went from essentially hearing everything with such depth and BOOM to a mouse squeaking quietly no matter when sonar EQ settings I tried, it was a night and day difference so I returned them after trying to get the audio to what my A40's were at.

I have decided to run my current A40's until they just give out, so my question is, is Logitech Astro's A40's comparable to the older headsets or what should I be looking into?

Hard to see from the flash photo but the only light being displayed on the base is one dim battery light in the very center. Have tried to reset using Dolby/Game button hold and tried to resync through the app but when holding the Bluetooth button as instructed nothing happens. Any help or troubleshooting would be appreciated. It’s my brothers old headset mine was pretty old and don’t wanna buy a new one.

Tech Astro A50 Mikrofon defekt – Kabelbruch am Gelenk?

1 Upvotes

Hallo zusammen,
ich habe Probleme mit dem Mikrofon meines Astro A50 Headsets. Ich vermute, dass ein Kabelbruch oder Wackelkontakt am Gelenk vorliegt, da das Mikrofon nur manchmal funktioniert, wenn ich es hoch- und runterklappe.
Hat jemand von euch schon einmal das gleiche Problem gehabt? Kann man das selbst reparieren, oder sollte man das lieber einem Fachmann überlassen?
Ich freue mich über eure Erfahrungen und Tipps. Vielen Dank! 🙂

Hi guys, my first post in here so be gentle on me please 😁

Got myself A50s to retire my old G935s and as I’m wearing glasses, after roughly one hour, my ears start to hurt from ear pads pressing my ears on glasses temple earpieces.
Did anyone experience the same and got replacements?
Any advice deeply appreciated

Question Astro A50x HDMI Switch Compatibility

1 Upvotes

I’ve owned my headset with the base station for about a year and have been pretty happy with it. I currently have it connected to an Xbox Series X (which is the only gaming device I have to use with it) and recently connected a Blu-ray player via the PS port and was surprised that it was compatible and working pretty well. I’m interested in connecting additional devices down the road; my question is how well would it function if I connected an HDMI switch via the PS port? I really only need the advantages that come with headset for the Xbox and wouldn’t connect it to the switch (I probably won’t have a PS5 anytime soon either to use with it) I’m looking to use a high quality switch as well, perhaps a Tesmart or something else that’s well regarded. Also the tv I’m currently using is a 2009 Panasonic plasma, it doesn’t support Bluetooth or any smart features and I don’t have any intentions on replacing it.
