Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've had these headphone for about 4-6 months now, and they are spectacular! I should mention that for Xbox 360 havingA40 MixAmp is aknist a plus as it allows you to adjust for Game and audio volume, so you can find the perfect balance for you. Now I'm going to break it down into pros and cons.
PROS:
Very comfortable to wear...I've had these on for upwards of 6 hours at a time for long gaming sessions, and have had no problems with comfort.
DURABLE...These are solidly constructed and have never felt like I was in danger or them wearing out (granted it's only been about 6 months)
Sound Quality is very very good. With the MixAmp you get very accurate positional Audio so it makes gaming that much better (it even works well with movies too)
Microphone...top notch microphone, that also detaches so you can just use them as regular headphones, and it comes with a quick mute switch so u can quickly turn off your mic for a private conversation if need be. Only caveat is that the noise canceling could be better, but it's not really an issue in the grand scheme.
Cables...the audio system comes with pretty much every audio cable you could ever need (minus fiber optic game, which is an option to purchase) so that, to me, is a plus.
PS3 compatibility, yes it works with the PS3 as well, and sounds fantastic when watching Blu-Ray movies.
MixAmp. The mixamp can also be used a headphone amp for your PC, or iPod, and the results are impressive. It's also portable as it has the option for battery power that lasts for roughly 12-14 hours using 4 AA batteries.
CONS
Price, Yes these are expensive, and cheaper from Astro Gaming directly, but I've used them so much that, to me, they were worth it
Music...Now I've put this in the cons but there's a catch. If you plan on using these for music from your 360 or PS3, well it;'s not gonna sound that good, but to me Music doesn't sound that good on 360. However, I use these on my computer as I have a Sound Blaster X-Fi, and after some tweaking, the music is fantastic on them, good base, and excellent treble. Having Said that, getting high quality stereo headphones will still be a Better choice for music, but again these sound great to me.
