Giving the A50X a test run. Debating between these and the Nova Pros.

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

It’s time… 🍊

Try A50X Gen 5 Stock Pads - Immersive, Best All Around EQ, or Best Sound for A50 Gen 5. These are presets on Logitech Hub. I prefer the stock pads immersive by gadgetry tech, they are all good choices tho.

Looking for an upgrade

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.

Sidetone aof A50X still way too low.

The sidetone can change depending on how far away the microphone is from your mouth, how loud you naturally talk, and how loud the master volume is set on the headset. We have tested the sidetone previously and have found it is working as intended. As an example, on my A50 X, I have my sidetone set

My opinion on the Atro A50 X

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
