When I was editing is was like hold on is this the right one 😂 and it was the steelseries I was really impressed. Last time I did that with a razer headset I almost shot myself while editing because of how bad it was
@@TooMuchTech nah not worth it, I say go rpg right away... or I can try to hook you up with a tank xD Jokes aside, your video made me buy them, I'll be getting them in 20th of June, thanks bro
A few notes: The 3.5mm jack on the headphones themselves are actually to share the sound with another headset, not replace it. I think that for next time you should read a bit more about the little details on a product, just to give us all of the correct information. Other than that, really good and professional review, very detailed and I myself am going to buy those headphones for sure. Keep up the good work!
@@TooMuchTech yeah I honestly couldn't really find a reason aswell, maybe if you're home with a friend and you both want to listen to the same thing.. Tho that's what speakers are for (or a regular audio jack 😂)
If you’ve ever been to an event… you’ll see Astro mixamps everywhere. They allow for team speak without lag. The extra 3.5 mm is to be able to use devices like this to separate network lag. It allows near real time communication without any conversions or compression. You can even hook multiple mixamps together which is how they get seem less audio and video input as well as being able to “listen in” to pros as they are speaking. Not making a statement… just telling you why the 3.5 Jack is there.
Heyo Too Much Tech, the AUX hub on the headset can be used to connect another pair of headset to it and to share the audio - and it works really good lol.
Any reason why mine doesn't seem to be working. I have it plugged in just like it says and what you said. The gamedac turns on, and it registers on my ps4 that the headset is plugged in but I can't hear anything and the LEDs aren't turning on.
Anyone know how to get it to work for game chat? I have it set up on my Xbox one x but game chat doesn’t work for some reason. I’m waiting to build my pc
I decided to go with the wired + Gamedac version but the cables are too short. What would you suggest for an extension cable to use with a PC? Would a simple male to female USB cable work or do I need something specific?
I got a question 🤔 do these headphones work better then the Playstation platinum because I can't decide and I went to gamestop but held myself so any advice would help also i heard that the steelseries doesn't give you high res audio on the ps4-pro
Hi Res audio isn't supported by ps I think. This headphones are better then the PlayStation platinum. I bought them 2 years ago and they haven't failed me at all. You can adjust multiple settings such as audio,rgb, and mic volume to suit your preference. Hi Res audio is for pc on this headset
I usually hear that if someone doesn’t like Astros, they like steelseries, so maybe you’re in that camp but I’m not sure. I don’t prefer steelseries so I wouldn’t be able to tell you, and I’ve kinda moved away from gaming headsets as a whole anyways . Video coming on that soooon. Within the next couple days
Do I need to buy the gameDAC? I’m on a tight budget since I’m buying my first monitor and hopefully next summer I buy my first PC(currently own a ps4 slim) . Oh that reminds me what USB to optical adapter do I need? One last thing what other headset is great and cheaper for gaming (sound quality) because I plan on buying a blue yeti nano microphone?
I brought it for my son and the game dac turns it from a very good to a phenomenal headset. So much so that I'm buying one for myself to replace my dogshit Turtle beach elites.
Got this for my ps5. For some reason I can’t use the microphone. When I go to settings the only mic listed is my ps5 remote the headset sounds incredible but I’m getting frustrated because I don’t know how to turn the mic on. I’ve been through all the settings. If anyone could help that would be great 😩
Quick question how’s the mic working for you and comfort and also where did you plug it into your pc?? I have a steelseries arctic 3 and man are they comfortable but sadly the mic is going out and I’m looking into getting the pro with the game Dac
Please can you help me out, I'm an idiot with computers. Is it at all possible to play on your PS4 and stream that gameplay off your PC (with an elgato), but be able to hear both your PS4 audio and the stream notifications???
Holy shit that mic sounds fucking crisp i have the a50’s gen 4 at the moment. And i bought the arctis pro wireless just to listen wich i like better of them . Hope they live up to the reviews i have read. And also hope they comfortable. So this better be an easy choise haha so bad at deciding.
I really like these but I've never been able to convince myself to buy them. I have been through 3 steelseries controllers and the first two simply didn't work or had issues after the first use. The third one was great but the A button started sticking after only about a week of light use. And they are not cheap controllers...
I used this headset for 10 days then decided to return it. My ears arent big or sticking out but they were constantly pressing against the inside of the cup where driver is located. It just got unbarable to wear :/
Loved this headset but it broke 2 times on me in a year swithced to the blackshark pros which have been staying solid and not breaking in less than a year
I freakin hate them, loved them for the first week, then ya find out out what ya got with the strap that just stretch's out, the mic boom that wont stay in the spot you adjust it too, the chord that always catch's on stuff and pulls out, the in cable volume that constantly gets bumped and turns your volume down. Wish I could find another set of Gamecom 780.
@@TooMuchTech I want to buy the Artics but I would like you to give me your recommendation .. What are the best ps4 headsets for you? .. Greetings from Chile. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Personally I prefer the A40 to the steelseries. And there isn’t a thing that would change my mind before they update the design of the headset to be more comfortable than the A40s.
@@TooMuchTech I tested two previous head sets. One was was 10 years ago when i didn't care about quality because we used ventrillo and they we're comparable to those. Then i plugged my Razer Krakens back in and they sounded better. 350+tax in Canada is robbery for this headset
@@ivansgamingchannel5215 um actually if u knew what u were talking about u would kno ps5 has no optical port 😱 so no not really u can't use them on ps5 to their full potential
I bought it today and I'm watching reviews just to hype myself up until it arrives lol
It arrived omg it's amazing
My turn to do the same.
@@ReqeezRafiq What did you use originally?
@@TSkid18 hyperx cloud alpha 2
If you think they sound good now, get a set of BrainWaves ear pads for them.
That mic it's actually one of the best I've heard, if I ever change my Sennheisser headset, it would be for one of those Steelseries.

thank u this has helped me set my Artics pro up
I have the Arctis 7 and my only complaint is the ear-pad material wasn't that comfortable for me. However, they are replaceable =)
Great video! Just needed to see someone handle the white version. Just ordered
Also went out a got that Alienware ultra wide you reviewed a while back. At home all day with the kids so I thought I should game like a king
Lol right!
I can say the arctis pro wireless is worth twice what the astro a50s if you're looking at the wireless option.
Any reason why mine doesn't seem to be working. I have it plugged in just like it says and what you said. The gamedac turns on, and it registers on my ps4 that the headset is plugged in but I can't hear anything and the LEDs aren't turning on.
great video man ooo nice keyboard i love my new key caps lol cotton candy matrix. Nice headphones
Thanks brother and yeah they look clean af lol cotton candy is sweet

Same bro. How you liking it? Just ordered mine today
I have this headset and it’s incredible I would absolutely recommend it for anyone
can it be used on ps5?
@@diegoc677 yeah but u have buy a audio extractor for optical cable
Hopefully they improved the charging port. Every Arctis headset I've gotten the charging port has bent and become a pain in the ass to try and charge.
do you have to have the gamedac attached to the headset and pc for the headset to even work?
I decided to go with the wired + Gamedac version but the cables are too short. What would you suggest for an extension cable to use with a PC? Would a simple male to female USB cable work or do I need something specific?
Am I the only one that has the background huzzing sound when having the volume high
That headset is CLEAN

Quick question, if you see this what is your exact keyboard switches keycaps, mouse, and gaming monitor.
th-cam.com/video/bsvkYY6QlYU/w-d-xo.html watch this. And my mouse pad now is the Odin Zero Gravity
Thanks, would you use the hp omen 1440p 240hz one instead?
Nope. It’s a good monitor but it wasn’t what I was looking for, if I was just gaming it’d be fine but I game and make content
Would you recommend it to someone who ONLY games on it
Mic not to great returned it for the Astro a40 tr today at Best Buy. I’m really liking the sound of the Astros
❗️
do you play console?
Have fun looking like a transformer with them cans💀😭💀😭
Yooooo... how are you doing man. Hope you are good and you too chat. Stay safe
Thank you! Likewise stay safe out there
Can I plug these into my Panasonic 4k Blu-ray player and still get the benefit the DTS:X surround sound?

The stuff included seems unnecessary compared to the Arctis 1 that just has a simple audio/mic splitter. For just 40-50$
So what is the dialogue enhancement? Is that dialogue in game or in the chat?
Have they updated on ps5 for Dolby ? Like with Astro they use the hdmi thing on their website to still get that sound
Quick question how’s the mic working for you and comfort and also where did you plug it into your pc?? I have a steelseries arctic 3 and man are they comfortable but sadly the mic is going out and I’m looking into getting the pro with the game Dac
I’ll have a review out today going over everything. And to plug it up to PC just use the Usb cable

How will this work with a ps5 since they won't have optical cables

A little late but Xbox works just no lights or software
Quick question does the gamedac work with the Arctis 1 wired headset?
I do not think so because it has a proprietary port for the headset because of the RGB on the Arctis Pro
