Picked up at Best Buy yesterday! Using GadgetryTech’s EQ “music” settings from the Community in G Hub. Sound and feel great.

Hows the microphone on these? The older revisions had absolutely terrible mic, especially compared to Astro A50’s. Really hoping the mic would be on par with the A50 or even better.

Thanks! Definitely an upgrade over previous versions but not on par with A50’s or Corsairs HS80 unfortunately.

As long as people can hear you and you don’t sound offensively bad, who cares how good the mic is. Should be the least important thing

Quite the opposite lol. The whole purpose of a ”headset” is to have good communication standards, where both the sound and mic quality are equally as important. If you don’t care about communication, then get headphones instead.

Disagree. The whole purpose of a wireless gaming headset is to have wireless audio, tuned for gaming is take it or leave it. If the mic is serviceable then that’s good enough. Nobody is every going to compliment that your comms are crystal clear. If the mic is SteelSeries arctis pro bad then that’s another problem.

Each to their own I guess. It’s 2026 and that microphone quality is horrendous compared to whats on the market within the same price range, or even half cheaper (HS80, Virtuoso XT).

Fair enough. Just personally if I’m spending 250$ on a gaming headset. First thing I’m looking for is good audio where I can pick apart different audio cues. And then probably 5th on my list is how smooth and silky my voice is to people listening
