The 2013 edition of the A40 Audio System combines an acoustically improved A40 Headset with our updated MixAmp™ Pro to bring you the next-gen audio experience. Immerse yourself with exceptionally accurate 7.1 Dolby® Surround Sound, multi-platform support, and game to voice balancing. Own your gaming with interchangeable speaker tags and EQ modes to perfectly fit your gaming audio needs. Easily capture all your gaming audio for live streaming with the new MixAmp™ Pro's Stream output.
Features:
XBOX ONE COMPATIBILITY
Our headsets will all deliver Dolby® Digital GAME AUDIO on the Xbox One, just like they do for the Xbox 360. However, the chat connector on the controller is now a proprietary connector, meaning that our current products will require an adapter to connect to the controller for Xbox Live voice chat. Fortunately, until this chat adapter is available, the built-in Kinect microphone will provide full voice communication access to Xbox Live while using ASTRO headsets on the Xbox One.
PS4 COMPATIBILITY
ASTRO headsets are fully compatible with PS4 once the Firmware 1.50 update has been applied to the console. Our headsets will deliver Dolby® Digital 5.1 and 7.1 game audio and full voice chat functionality over the PlayStation Network.
ASTRO MIXAMP
ASTRO MixAmps lets you adjust your game-to-voice balancing, choose from up to 4 different EQ modes (2013 ed. only) made for gaming/media, and link multiple MixAmps together for a lag-free private voice network.
CUSTOMIZABLE SPEAKER TAGS
Change-up your style on the A40 or A30 headsets with our magnetic Speaker Tag system. Or, customize your setup by designing your tags at our online Speaker Tag Customizer
DOLBY DIGITAL 7.1®
Plug into an ASTRO MixAmp and immerse yourself in the audio of your favorite games. Use every gunshot and footstep to pinpoint exactly where the fight is and get the drop on your opponents before they hear you.
Multi-System Compatibility
ASTRO MixAmps ensure compatibility with any major platform you choose to game on. Whether you're gaming on a PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PC, or a mobile platform ASTRO has you covered.
SUPERIOR FIT & FINISH
Wear your ASTROs flat around your neck pro-style or clamp them on your dome for days of play in ultimate comfort. Designed with superior materials & fit, over-ear cushions and in-line mic controls.
SWAPPABLE CABLE SYSTEM
The new Mobile Cable plugs directly into the headset via a 3.5mm 4-pole jack and offers an in-line microphone, an in-line mute switch, a volume control wheel, and a call/pickup/tracking button.
Tuned with Astro Audio
Working closely with pro gamers and top audio designers to deliver the highest level of clarity at every frequency, ASTRO AUDIO® is designed to make your games, music, and movies sound the absolute best.
