  • Hi, this is an in depth video of setting up the Astro A50 Wireless Headset (2nd generation) on the Xbox One S. The same setup will apply for the Xbox One.
    I show the initial setup, charging the headset, pairing the headset, Xbox One settings, testing the headset, mic, optical out, aux in and MixAmp Dolby Pro Logic 7.1 Surround sound settings.
    Many thanks Vince

    I just adopted my brothers old astros and was frustrated bc I couldn’t figure out my issue with the sound, but you helped out a lot. Thank you!

    Your a legend, I've had the A50s for about 3 maybe 4 years possibly
    Longer and never used them because I couldn't figure out how to get game sound in the headset until your amazing video, Thank you so much

    This was a fantastic, no-nonsense overview of how to do everything with the A50's. Very neat, well-explained, and to the point. I'm looking for a new headset and your video was spot-on! I'll check your other vids, but did you do the same treatment for PS4 and PC with this headset?

      i tried this, and the aux on the astro is 2.5mm so i bought a special aux that was 2.5mm to 3.5mm and it didn’t work.
      so you can’t use as just headphones if that’s what you’re looking for.

      Technically it is, it's true wireless when you don't want to chat with people. If you just want to hear the game it is. So it's kinda like having a glorified pair of earphones that sound great. Lol

It sucks mostly because I use a cronusmax plus to switch my stick layout to legacy for games like pubg and rainbow six siege (no cheating scripts or game packs)

    • @michelleneasha
      @michelleneasha 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Shadows2207 can you just use a converter instead? You know like how the A50s are a 2.5mm and the Xbox one is a 3.5mm can't you just buy the lil splitter looking pice that you can plug your 2.5mm into one end of it as where the 3.5mm is on the other end that you would plug into the controller and you could just plug it directly into your controller or chat pad like that? I'm just wondering if that would as work a well? If you know it would be much appreciated thank you.😊

    • @BeastMoo
      @BeastMoo 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Make sure you have it set to Xbox initially. If you already have it set to Xbox, you can just flip the switch on the right side. Sometimes my mic doesn't work and I fix this by switching to PC and back to Xbox. After that you should see a pop up saying something along the lines of "headset assigned". Sometimes it also helps to completely close out of the game app and relaunch it.

    Is there anyway you can buy a converter to use if you've got the original A50s an the part that plugs into the controller is only a 2.5 mm? What I mean by A converter is its this lil wire that looks like a splitter, at one end it'll take the 2.5mm and on the other end it'll Be a 3.5mm that can plug directly into the controller or chat pad. Soo if there is anyone that might know if this would work it would be much appreciated thank you.
