My last set was the ASUS ROG Fusion 300 paired with the Turtle Beach Elite Pro TAC to control volume levels between game and chat. These were the best combo I had found because they had an option to output to streaming that I use for a Buttkicker. These worked fine, but the Fusion 300's always had a deep hum and wasn't a very clear microphone. Once I saw the A40 + MixAmp PRO in an advertisement I decided to give them a try. Super impressed! The A40's are perfect as far as comfort, and the sound is really clear. The MixAmp Pro works really well for controlling volume and the chat/game mix. It has the output in back for Stream that I use for the Buttkicker and it all works right out of the box with no crazy setup or fooling around.
PROS:
-great fit
-soft around the ear cups
-good build quality
-great sound and spatial differential with Dolby
-MixAmp has chat mix knob and plenty of power
-MixAmp has Stream output for auxiliary sounds needs like a buttkicker
CONS:
-Microphone doesn't have a foam guard and picks up breathing/wind so you have to move it far away from your face
The headphones themselves are great. They are the 2nd pair that I've bought. The first set was also A40s which I had for 7 years that were bought used. These fit better than a recent pair of Logitech g635s; they were too tight and gave me headaches after a day's use. The ear cushions are soft cloth material and the headband flexes enough to fit but is sturdy enough to hold securely. The mixamp is great. It allows me to adjust the volume in game on the fly on my PC without adjust sound settings. The lights turn red on the mixamp when my mic is muted which is a great and unexpected feature. The sound of is crystal clear and the mic produces a clean and natural reproduction of my voice. There is also a self monitor system in place that lets me hear myself as I talk. This can be turned off I wish and the volume adjusted.
I'm very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend these headphones and this seller.
Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2023
There's no denying ASTRO is one of the most popular and widely used gaming headsets on the market. I bought this to use on my PC and maybe my PS4 if I felt like hooking it up there. Although sound (especially surround sound) quality is suburb, the software to configure the headset leaves a lot to be desired. The Windows app they recommend downloading for this headset doesn't recognize it, making the program useless. If you download the driver from ASTRO's website, even though it's older, it will detect the headset and you can make new audio profiles to store in the mixamp. Although simple, it's effective. I also had a huge problem setting up the correct audio lines to get the mixamp to work properly (see above) but eventually got it working.
Also, get the Mod Kit. Even though the ear cushions are comfortable, the faux leather ones in the mod kit are superior. Which will put your purchase above $300 if buying everything new. Kind of wish that this were included with the high price tag of the base model.

音質はいいと思います。
ソフトでイコライザの設定はすごく簡単で、複数のイコライザを保存して、切り替えも簡単にできます。
mixampに関してですが、dolbyのオンオフがmixamp物理ボタン、windows10、overwatchにあり、どれで設定したらいいのかよくわからないです笑
複数でdolbyの設定しないほうがいいと思います。

音漏れが〜とか言ってる人がいますが、当たり前です。開放型のヘッドホンなので笑、modkitを買いましょう。modkitを買うと密閉型になり、音漏れもしなくなり、定位もわかりやすくなります。
ヘッドホンのケーブルの途中にマイクのオンオフ切り替えるのがありすごく助かります。
オンオフ切り替えでmixamp本体の光の色が変わるので、一目で分かります。(ミュートの時赤色の光に変わります。通常は白色)
