for example : if im playing Cod and there is an enemy to my left , would that enemy's footsteps come from the left speaker with these headphones or will it just come out from both ?
The left ear set does not work and my microphone doesn’t pick up my voice unless it is really close. This problem is only when I use the mixamp. My controller is up to date. When I use the regular cord it comes with it works but not very good.
can i plug these in to my pc cus im not so much for the xbox one i just liked the looks on this and i was wondering if I could plug them in to my pc and get the mic working and stuff like that
So that's it. Only the Chat cable in the controller? No other kabels to your TV? And also, what's the difference between this one and the A50 for the One ( I know it's wireless, but can't see the difference) ? Cause Both do work with the Chat cable.
When you have a special Head (in this case, the M80 mixamp), the headset you are wearing will have game volume. The Xbox one controller has a built in connector similar to a Bluetooth device that allows game volume to be sent to the controller. That way, the A40 WILL have both Game volume and Chat volume.
How do you get the sound just to play through the headset and not the TV also I'm getting a lot of buzzing noise if you know how to fix this please let me know
Ive seen a few people with this headset and they use it for both Xbox One and Xbox 360 I was wondering how is that possible and where can I find such adapter for it? Please help.
I'm sure you can find a cable for Xbox 360 somewhere in the Internet. Old Astros for previous gen consoles had cables similar to these Astros where the head you plug into the headset are the same. So I'm sure there are a few around.
200$ for a Xbox One stereo headset... What a joke. You can buy an previous Gen for 250$(idk if the price went down or not) but that one is USB, Surround Sound and with the purchase of the Xbox adapter for 25$ that headset can be used on ps4,x1,pc and all previous Gen I'm surround sound. Way better buy imo
I looked it up and they updated the bundle I was talking about. For 250$ you get the Gen 2 headset and mixamp the actually surround sound one. Then you buy a Xbox adapter to talk or you can use Skype on xbox if you don't want to spend the 25$.
Ok, so the headset gets power/chat from the controller but how does the headset receive the game audio signal from the Xbox. Through the controller? How is this possible and does the headset adversely affect the controllers battery life? I play on a monitor at the other side of my room from where my xbox one sits via a 10m hdmi cable ... Will this be a problem?
Not a problem at all, the Xbox sends the audio through the controller to the headset. That's why it's 5.1 and not 7, however it still sounds and works great.
The headset will take some battery life but not that much. I assume you already have a charging station or something. If not, then I suggest you buy one because those batteries are killers.
But the Xbox one controller has a built in connector to the Xbox that works similarly to a Bluetooth device and from then, sends game volume. That's why the controller no longer supports AUX cords.
Yes. Just buy splitters and plug in the AUX cord into the headset and the other end into the Splitters. Then plug the splitters into the correct slot in your PC.

Booredatwork.com Can You Make A Tutorial For Pc I Really Appreciate it Because I Dont Have PS4 I Have 1 Gaming Laptop 1 HD60 And 1 Streaming PC Id Like To Do It On PC I Like Live Commentary Because Im Playing On My Laptop Then Record On My Streaming Pc Thanks By The Way I Like The Game Sound Is On Headset Not On Speaker Thanks. I Hope You'll Help Me.
You do know you are able to take the headphone plates off and swap which side the mic is on.
(The mic you can also take out)
Great vid.
I just bought this headset.. With that 3.5mm audio double male cable, I can plug that into my phone and listen to my music?
Just a quick note...like the previous A40's...the ear plates/covers are removable and the microphone can be installed on either side.
yes it can
Awesome first look, debating to get these or the Spartan 117 A50 wireless Astros. Should do an unboxing and first look with those when they come out
Can you use that other cable (3.5-3.5) and plug that into your Xbox adaptor ?? Without using the m80 ??
Yes
for example : if im playing Cod and there is an enemy to my left , would that enemy's footsteps come from the left speaker with these headphones or will it just come out from both ?
These headsets are surround sound. They will capture the steps someone takes either from the left or right.
Sergio Perez these headphones are not surround sound

Do u know if u can use it on ps4 by just using the regular 3.5mm jack cable plugged into the ps4 controller
When I plug it in do I need a othe cable or something to listen to game audio?
So these cant hook up to your computer the same time your gaming?
Do I have to have the m80 plugged into the the headset/controller for it to work or can I just use the headset wirelessly?
These headphones are not wireless. You have to plug the m80 into the controller for it to be able to operate.
can i plug these in to my pc cus im not so much for the xbox one i just liked the looks on this and i was wondering if I could plug them in to my pc and get the mic working and stuff like that
there's a PC variant of the A40s
So that's it. Only the Chat cable in the controller? No other kabels to your TV?

Thank you so much! =)
So close to 70K!
yeah. thanks for all the support
How do you get the sound just to play through the headset and not the TV also I'm getting a lot of buzzing noise if you know how to fix this please let me know
nice, so with that extra head jack cable, does that mean i could plug it into my ps4 controller?
+Jonathon Jaramillo the extra cable is just a 3.5mm so you figure it out
Would I be able to use the alternative cable and plug that into a splitter in order to use it for audio and as a microphone for my PC?
Yes
I have green and white a50s for my xbox one and ps4, and for pc I have an old pair of the neon a40s they made (Orange)
how can i do a live commentary with these astro's if i was to get a youtube gaming channel?
How can i get the game sound on the hetset? :/
Ive seen a few people with this headset and they use it for both Xbox One and Xbox 360 I was wondering how is that possible and where can I find such adapter for it? Please help.

But how can I plug it into my pc at the same time like the previous gen with the mix amp pro
Thanks for posting this, I was very interested in a pair since my trittons died on me.
Is it just for Xbox one or is it compatible with PS3 and ps4
200$ for a Xbox One stereo headset... What a joke.

if u buy the previous gen ones can u hear the game volume on next gen by just plugging it in the xbox1?
Tom yeah you can but idk if the mic will work. I use to use the old gen with a mix amp and it worked fine.
thanks for the help bro
Can u use the Xbox adapter for the astros if u dont have the mixamp
Are there different colors?

it comes from the controller idk its weird but it works.
I bought this headset and I can't chat I can only hear audio updated it , but I did through the Kinect plug in. Do you have any idea how to fix it
It'll be like that for the next few minutes but the mic will start working momentarily. I'm assuming it's been working for a while now?
Yes thank you sir and good luck to you
But can you communicate while still hearing the game volume
Can you use this headset with the old 2011 astro mixamp?
hi thunde are you doing any giveaway
Is it possible to use them on the 360
My mic or my right side of the headset wouldn't work and I updated my controller
LORD TACHANKA did you ever found the problem
where does the headset get the game sound from?
I can't hear or talk to people through mine? please help.
My voice chat is not working on mine the controller is updated
So because they're plugged into the controller... this is only pumping out stereo audio right?!
EQ change lets you change from Stereo, Mono, and whatever the other one is
***** yeah my fault.thanks for correcting me. :)
How do you get game sound to come from it?
Doesn't the USB come with it
can you use these on PC aswell?
How can I use this with my pc? I hope I didn't make a bad decision buying this :/
You need to buy splitters and plug the AUX cord into the headset and splitters. Then plug the correct splitter heads into the slots on your PC.
can you use this headset in a computer/pc
yes if you watched it
Yes. Just buy splitters and plug in the AUX cord into the headset and the other end into the Splitters. Then plug the splitters into the correct slot in your PC.
can u also plug these into a ps4 controller
Great video thanks
I just bought this headset and whenever I turn my controller off or on it makes a loud static noise in the headset. Anyone else have this problem ?
Yeah I updated both of them and it does the same thing. It only does it when I turn the controller on or off though, everything else works fine.
Where does the headset get power from?
the controller
The controller. It wouldn't be a problem unless you don't have rechargeable batteries. The headset doesn't take that much battery life either ways
How do you hear game volume?
The Xbox one controller has a built in connector similar to a Bluetooth device to where the console will send game volume to the Xbox one controller. That way, when you have a special head such as the M80 mixamp pro, you will head both game volume and chat volume through your Astros.
what adapter do you need for xbox 360?
Ms Explicable You get one with the controller
You can buy a normal pair of a40 for xbox 360
