If this helps, my top 3 headsets are, in no particular order (rankings below), the Astro A50’s, the Audeze Maxwell and the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Elite - with the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless right behind ‘em. Here are my breakdowns, as someone that owns all of them (well, minus the Nova Pro Wi

Here’s my opinion as a console user… I just returned my A50 headset to Best Buy and swapped to the A50x. If there's any sound difference between the 2 due to the bit rate - it's very minor imo (but I have 58 year old ears with a lot of concert time on them). I just wanted the ability to have chatmix

Astro A50 X has a completely different sound than the older models before they got bought out by logitech. Its a decent headset but you need to use "Steel series sonar" to make it sound like the OG Astros.

No I ended up keeping them since I didn’t want to give up the simultaneous blutooth, I also used an eq and got stealthz earpads and I like them a lot more. I also tried on a friends Logitech g522 which is essentially identical to the a20x and preferred the a50 over it, or at least once I got the new

Aqui no Brasil, 99% dos usados estão sempre com problemas de conectividade, chiados ou outros que afetam a experiencia sonora ou do microfone. O pior é que os valores são quase 2/3 do valor de um novo. Por exemplo, um A50 gen 4 está na faixa dos 1300, o novo na vaixa dos 1800. O A50 Gen 5 em promoçã

If ur looking at these might as well just invest in the Astro A50 X. Made by Logitech. By far the best headset I ever owned

KVM switch for the two computers makes this setup trivial, been there done that, still doing that. Been working remotely more or less since COVID so a clean singular work-and-play setup was important to me. For integrating a console into the mix, my solution was the Logitech Astro A50 X wireless hea

I own both concurrently and can give you my 2c You’re mixing up a workflow change with an actual audio downgrade. Gen 4 didn’t give you “real” surround everywhere — it matrixed lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 over Toslink and virtualised it in the base station. Convenient, yes. Higher fidelity, no. It added

Got the Logitech G Astro A50 X after my old Turtle Beach headset finally gave up on me, and wowza this thing is something else. Sound quality is absolutely insane, I can hear every little detail in games now, footsteps, reload sounds, ambient stuff I never noticed before. Makes a huge difference in

The Astro A50 X (2024) is a superior, modern upgrade to the A50 Gen 4, featuring HDMI 2.1 pass-through for 4K/120Hz, simultaneous connectivity across Xbox, PS5, and PC, and improved, longer-lasting battery life. While both offer high-end audio and comfort, the A50 X is better for multi-console users
