The thing I loved about the first gen headset is that I could walk all around my house (upstairs and downstairs) and not lose signal. It isn't a cheap headset by any means, but it's worth the price imo
I like drift0r, and I've been a fan of his content since bo2 days. And I've been keeping up with all of his health updates. IDK if it's just me, but I have noticed that he looks a little "swollen" it looks like he is retaining water or something. Probably a medication that he is taking? idk. I really really hope he gets better
Hi! There are people say that with the latest firmware update, you can now save the EQ setting to the headset which can work now on PS5. Could you confirm this? Thanks!
Yo 8:45 you mention that you can run analogue, usb and bluetooth at the same time? But every other video I've seen about these says otherwise. Are you sure? Did they fix that?
The analogue is just 3.5mm jack in. You can run Bluetooth from one device and get analog from another. However, mixing on the two has to be done on the output devices
Hey drift0r I hope you see this. Was wondering if you could do a video on them fixing the x 360 servers for the old cods. Might help get more players on! I'm rewatching your mw3 in depth vids!
It's not necessary to swap the mic I have the pro X wireless headset the older version of this you can use GHUB to setup mic profiles and more precise mic and audio control if you know anything about audio engineering you can really make this mic sound amazing, if not you can download presets from their community libraries. I really like how they added 3.5mm jack and bluetooth compatibility vs the older set I have 2 sets of the older headphones the wired and wireless ones, the cable messed up on my wired one and there are no real replacement cables which was a terrible discovery but the wireless one has been amazing so far been using it for about 3 years now starting to fall apart after heavy use 3 years almost every single day. I'm hoping the Pro X 2s are even better would like to get some eventually myself.
One question I wish you would of answered is Logitech customer service as good or better than Astros? Astros is like my favorite because of their customer service!! It’s amazing.
It's cool. But it would be nice if you reviewed budget headphones. Not super premium ones that I couldn't justify purchasing 😂 I'll stick to my mediocre turtle beaches
Which way did you intend for your hair to grow out? 😁 My monkey would WRECK that mic in second while I"m wearing the headset. Hate foam covers anyway. With good noise cancelling you don't need to cover the mic. I've bought so many headsets with claima to block out noise for the mic and they turn out to be fiction. I live right next to the Airforce base, so that's is REALLY important to me.
astro is something else man, im still wondering why Logitech keeping their headsets even when they own Astro , imo stay with astro headsets and put some logitech features itll be amazing
I tried out this headset and had to return them, had near no directional audio compared to other brands in this price range. Not an uncomfy headset, but if you care about competitive gaming, stay away.
GHUB lol I doubt these are somehow worse than the version before these been using it for about 3 to 4 years now and love them I can hear directional audio way easier than my friends who use corsairs lol they're amazing for people who take the time to use Ghub and look more into the settings.
@@OnewingseraphimOfficial Obviously I've used GHUB, I'm a big fan of the superlight so more than familiar with it. The directional audio was just nowhere near even an entry level Sennheiser. Anyhow I'm happy for you that you're liking it .
idk if I can take any of your reviews seriously anymore, I bought the Astro A30s to replace my (old and broken) A40s based solely on your review and recommendation. I ended up purchasing another pair of (newer) A40s within a week of buying the A30s as they were uncomfortable, poor sound quality, hit and miss with their connectivity etc. A big shame, I've always trusted your content to be honest and representative.
That's a big yikes! I didn't experience any of those issues. For me they were comfortable, sounded good, and easily connected to everything I tried. I hope that ASTRO gave you a refund. If not, please e-mail me the details with you order number -> drift0rbusiness@gmail.com I will personally take care of it.
Same here. I bought the A30 thinking they were a good headset. They look good bit that's the only compliment I give to them. The connection is trash, the mic stops picking up my voice after 5 minutes of use. The volume goes to 100% in app out of no where. Really would not reccomend them. I'm happy with the logitec pro g 2 x as they do exactly what I want them to do and sound just as good if not better then the a30. Such a shame as I was really hoping the a30 would be a keeper for the next few years. They really do look like a great headset.
This headset Only produces a flat stereo sound on console. No EQ sound settings can be saved for console use. I found this very underwhelming. Returned.
This headset is whack. The DTS integration for surround sound is fake. Want to validate yourself. Uninstall the Logitech driver. Install the generic USB driver, install DTS unbound, enable DTS on the headset and bam it sounds amazing but that breaks G-hub integration. If your positional audio is bad out of the box...the above fixes it but also you lose battery life, EQ, etc. Mine are boxed up for return. Also stop deleting my comment.
@@Drift0r thanks, apologies my first comment just vanished but it could've just been a fluke! This was a known issue with the first version of these cans as well. I'm happy to give you more details if you want to replicate it. I reached out to Logitech but their tier one support just sends basic troubleshooting. If you enable surround sound it seems like it's working, but it's muddied. If you do what I posted above the headset is crystal clear and positional audio is scarily accurate. It's a shame if it wasn't for this I'd definitely keep them.
Wait… he said they just came in and we’re 1st to see them, but then he says the battery life is amazing and he had to only charge them once and they last 50hrs. Someone’s lying 🤥 😂 I apologize for my run-on sentence 😅
The thing I loved about the first gen headset is that I could walk all around my house (upstairs and downstairs) and not lose signal. It isn't a cheap headset by any means, but it's worth the price imo
Damn, that would be amazing. Both my Sony and Microsoft headsets cut out if I walk up my hall from my consoles. lol
Oh man. Is that your streaming setup now in bed? I hope you recover and start feeling better again man

Not in the market for a new headset but I had no idea they made an upgraded mic for the Astros A40 TR's! Definitely gonna have to get that.
hey guys hi driftor! great video! happy holidays soon everyone. im getting these delivered to me soon
Oo a new logo intro, how sweet!
They need to come out with new A50’s already. Been waiting for 5 damn years
If it's sponsored it's not a review
mine i cudent find the usb in the box
i dont know what to do

I have these in the magenta color and they're amazing!
Guys what do you recommend for phone calls watching videos and listening to music ?
Should it be the Sony wxm5 or this pro x 2 lightspeed??
yo bro im a fan from the old days? u still be having crazy dreams? you should tell that vampire story again. that dream was goated af
Still having crazy dreams
how to use both blue tooth and tight speed for simultaneous?
I don't see a link for that keyboard.
They look unreal!
Been using Astro A40 TR’s but since I’ve swapped to PC I’ve wanted to upgrade but not sure if I want ear buds or a new headset
Ive got a pair of Steel Series Nova Pro wireless and they're awesome. But these look so comfy 🤣

Please what do you recommend for music, watching videos and phone calls? I am between sony wxmh5 and this pro x 2 lightspeed!!
Which Mic preset you have in the ghub software?
@@mrfamestories I make my own, every voice needs to be tweaked per person and what sound you're going for. I try to go with a more natural sound.
@@nouuusnouus idk anything about other headphones but the pro x sounds amazing for music
One question I wish you would of answered is Logitech customer service as good or better than Astros? Astros is like my favorite because of their customer service!! It’s amazing.
would have
as good as*
Not sure
Astro is a Logitech brand so wouldn't be surprised if its similar
how do you use ur mouse with the lay down setup
On the side of the bed?
I hope Astro comes out with an A60, the G Pro X 2 look nice though.
Astros are junk, all of them. I'd rather spend money on an actually good sounding pair of headphones.
@@drunkhusband6257for example ? I’m about to buy a new headset, what headsets would you recommend me ? ( don’t worry about money ) any price
It's cool.
But it would be nice if you reviewed budget headphones. Not super premium ones that I couldn't justify purchasing 😂 I'll stick to my mediocre turtle beaches

Looking for a new gaming head set doe it have the 3.5mm jack to plug in to a capture card for game audio chat?
Yes
@@Drift0r Hey Thanks Driftor!!! Looking great man!!! Hope your health is thriving ❤️🩹👍🏻
Works on ps5 with wireless and wired?
It should. That's what they say it does but I don't own a PS5 to test with.
Does this Support 3D Tempest Audio?
astro is something else man, im still wondering why Logitech keeping their headsets even when they own Astro , imo stay with astro headsets and put some logitech features itll be amazing
I wonder the same thing
you should try some sennheiser gaming headsets or AT ath-g1
he can't cuz he is sponsored by a competing company
this seems useful and would match my pc
What the... *grabs my a50s and removes the ear foam*
Pass. When is Logitech putting out new Astro A50s??? Its been 5 years...
I tried out this headset and had to return them, had near no directional audio compared to other brands in this price range. Not an uncomfy headset, but if you care about competitive gaming, stay away.
You have to adjust the EQ in the software. It's not a great "out of the box" headset but that's true with most of Logitech products except their mice

big fan!

I found this very underwhelming. Returned.
1.46 million subs but less than 100 comments??? Shill much? Lmao
Sponsored by Logitech ruined it for me, Im not dumb ok...
“ not polished it’s brushed “ 🤓 🤓🤓🤓
No cat ears?
These are not good.. way too quiet
turn up ur consoles general audio

I just left a comment on your video where you announced your B1 Deficiency 9 months ago. Please Read it.
LG drivers are shitshow using window generic + atmos way better
Care to elaborate? It's not a topic that I am familiar with.

Someone’s lying 🤥 😂
I apologize for my run-on sentence 😅
No
first:)
$250 for a headset? Hard pass my guys. Even with the %5 off it’s not worth it.
Not everything in life has to be for everyone 🥴🤡
$250 is cheap for a headset, all the actually good headphones start around $400-$600 range.
