Astro A50 X

Logitech bought them out a few years ago and from what I've heard this is on par for Logitech to do. They'll buy out a company and slowly over time just phase out their core components essentially killing the brand. Look at the new A50 X that released, you can barely find any Astro branding on it an

PC only needs USB. Specifically, connect the red USB-C port to the PC and the included power supply with the included Y-cable (Setup Guide, p. 14). The HDMI inputs are for consoles. If you only play on PC, the A50 Gen 5 works identically for USD $100 less (and is $20 off during Logitech’s current sa

I recommend Maxwell 1 over 2, because 1 simply sounds better and has wider frequency range. The new SLAM tech on the Maxwell 2 (down to 30hz) makes it lose bass compared to Maxwell 1 (down to 10hz). PS: The 10hz ~ 50khz on the Maxwell 2 is false advertisement. I absolutely can not recommend the A50/

I had the previous generation Astro A50, which logitech stopped supporting, which they bricked through some bullshit software upgrade Have you ever heard the saying "once bitten twice shy" or "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" I have the A50 Astro Lightspeed I don't know if it's

My A50 died after 2 years because a update. I contacted logitech and they offered me 30% on a new one. I will never buy anything from them again. If you can return and get a refund.. do it

I have also gone back and forth with support both on live chat, mail and reddit for 1.5 years at this point and i dont see an end in sight. I have been promised on multiple occasions that this will get fixed. But it keeps getting "looked at", "Investigated" or similar. Every past a50 headsets ive ow

I am seriously starting to think Logitech is killing the Astro brand. Maybe they had contractual obligations that required them to produce what was on the drawing board at the time of acquisition? That sentence had a bunch of fancy words in it that I barely understand I hope what I’m saying makes se

I'm so tired of this dance. I did that 3 times before with the A50. Also, returning to Amazon is an exhaustable resource. Moreso the higher in value the item is. I don't want to get put on Amazon's naughty list just because Logitech makes a shit product.

Return it if you can, buy a used 2nd generation A50 and use firmware version 5037, any astro firmware or headset produced after this is a disgrace. My gen 2 has lasted over a decade and still works perfectly. Don't listen to any Astro or Logitech mod because they will gaslight you into thinking it's

Odd as my A50X had the splitter but both USB-C vs A. Guessing Logitech has finally cut over to USB-C but inventory stock likely still has the USB-A cables out there. I voltage tested the output of the USB-C on my PS5 and it slightly came up short compared to the supplied power adapter. Never tried i
