Hey Techne , always appreciate your content, keep up the great work my friend. I really do like the the look and features of this headset, but that headband issue is a deal breaker for me personally, such a shame, so close.

I bought some A20’s about 9 years ago, and they shut off last night with no lights and no turning back on, I think they’re fried and I got my moneys worth. Time to get these today!! Too excited

just subbed because i love the honesty and energy lol thanks you

9:05 is that really the built-in mic? That sounds amazing! Sounds MUCH better to my ears than the detachable mic (in wireless mode, at least), which usually isn't the case. That's wild!

Guys, I'm having problems with the microphone. It recognizes it but there's no sound output. Has anyone experienced this?

been waiting for a review on these and glad it was you.. now my question these vs the arctis nova 7's which one would you choose?!

Thanks for the awesome review! BTW where are these red white black panels on your wall from? Self made?

@The Techne wow the mic sounds when in bluetooth mode with the mic attached but when its using the on-board mic it sounds good you can hear the bass in your voice. and running it with the mic attached running it 3.5mm sound like a USB XLR mic. really clear sounds awesome.

The hidden mic sounds better to me ..I came to see the headband durability ...great review I assume this model is cheaper than the a40 a50 so I'm gonna check them out

Techne has been on the grind!! Much respect

For what it's worth, I tried the A30, Nova 7x, Nova pro wireless, Astro A50, to try and replace my Astro A40s with mixamp pro.... of all these the A30s were the only ones that I liked. I returned all the others.

@@alexsypen920 The nova pro literally hurt to wear, the anc nub in the ear cups dug into my ear and was awful. The 7x were ok, but the side tone was so weak. I could barely hear myself, so it was like talking with your ears plugged. It just made it hard to talk. The A30 aren't perfect, but they have good comfort, reasonable sound quality, and good side tone. Bonus is that wicked cushions just came out with ear pads for them, which makes the comfort even better.

Would love to see you compare the a30 vs the nova 7x. Which sound do you prefer? Can you buy a second dongle and have one in a ps5 and one in an xbox at the same time? Just be nice to play either console and not have to switch the dongle. Not a fan of the anc nub on the nova pro wireless

Hey @The Techne I noticed you mention the wicked cushions a lot and have tried them myself, they are ridiculously comfy as you said. I find however on the Audeze Penrose the bass is not as deep with the cooling gel pads, will using the hybrid velour improve the base?

Excellent review! I love that you can use multiple sources at the same time (and balance them) but what about the microphone? If its on say a PS4, can I take a call or use discord on my phone?

Wondering if these would be a better buy than the hyper X cloud alpha. Which ones sound better. Mostly just use them for call of duty. So mic and audio are main concerns

I just have to say that i really enjoy watching your videos thanks to your energy.

How does it compare to the steelseries arctis nova 7?

Loving the goatee brother!

Astro generally have a noise gate applied to their microphones by default in the software. I imagine the boom mic will sound much closer to how it sounded while wired once the app releases and you are able to disable the noise gate.

Hello! Which one would you recommend as a wired headset, the Steelseries Nova 1 or the Razer Kaira X? Thanks in advance.

I was planning on getting these, but that headband popping off is a bit worrying. Probably look for something else now.

Would be interesting to see what your opinion is on the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay Portals

For the past several days I've been deciding between the EPOS H6Pro or Arctis Nova Pro but then you dropped this video dammit, lol. The versatility and features is very tempting but I'll wait a little bit longer for more reviews on this one.

Very interesting I have a ps5 and wondering if I should pull the trigger from my Astro A40’s

What headset would you recommend man for Xbox and pc use . Was thinking a40s tr, a30s, or razer shark v2s Looking for a good headset for competitive gaming, if there is another headset you think would be best let me know please 🙏🏻

Love your channel especially when the holiday shopping season is coming and I buy a lot of tech for gifts. 👍

looking at the right side of the headband at 4:14 and wondering if it's already coming off or what is that gap there? looks not very good... which is a bummer 'cause the headset itself looks amazing! love the shiny plates! so much better than RGB imho

Are you going to review skullcandy slyr and plyr by any chance?

thank you very much for the review. ive been looking for headphones that can be used with multiple devices at the same time (usb dongle and bluetooth) and hadnt seen any reviews for this set. talking about the earcups, band, and the mic test were very helpful in forming my opinion if these are the set for me

Is there any talks of a new a50 or another a60 or something? the a40s and a50s are so old tech now, we need a refresh/upgrade. steel series just did and alot of other competitors have had new wireless options released,

hey man you are the best, by chance i am brazilian and i would like to know if you have any tips for importing and buying without taxes or fees

Had a question, maybe someone can help, can I take these headphones and jump between devices Xbox/ps5/switch freely? Or do I need to buy a dongle like the a20s. The website description was confusing. Thanks

So I replaced a faulty Logitech Pro X for these and found there is no software like Logitech G Hub for the pc? How do you change any settings like 7.1 surround sound ect?

a bit lost here. i'm highly interested about buying this headset, yet i am wondering ; if i buy the PS version, would i be able to still play with this headset on my Series X ? for the moment, only the PS version is available near my local shop so, i don't know if i can buy this version but still have the full potential.

Do the A40s side plates work with this?

Best Buy listing says these have Dolby Atmos, but haven't seen that listed anywhere else?

good info, appreciate ya

which headphones have both Wired and wireless connectivity?

I wish reviewers would talk more about mic monitoring levels. Other than sound that is my number 1 function when it comes to purchasing a headset. Lucidsound ls40 was for me the hands down best at it. But after a few years the headband cracked. I go through many headsets because no reviews talk about it. I want to be able to have a louder side tone. I lost a lot of functions on my Lucidsound going from my PS4 to PS5 or I would just buy another set. PLEASE SOMEONE TALK ABOUT HOW LOUD THE MIC MONITORING IS!

They remind me of a cooler looking audeze penrose. I’m guessing the penrose sound better huh ? Do they sound better than a50s?

How does the mic compare to the logitech g pro x wireless?

Which is better between astro a 30, maxwell and turtle beach stealth pro?

If my Rick and Morty plates from my old A40s fit, I’m completely sold

I can’t find anything as to whether or not these are 7.1 surround sound?

Does it have game/chat mix on xbox version?

whats the biggest headset you have thats for big heads and glasses and for console

why the mic does not work on ps5 when is on wirreles mode i put thw cable and they work

You got these already sweet

the multi audiio thing is so useful since i tend to use my pc and playstation at the same and i have the a20s so its annoying trying to switch between the two with the single dongle

Lots of great features but I have trouble getting mine to actually mute when pressing the mute button. People can still here me when it’s switched off. App doesn’t recognize my headset is near. Also the mic placement is too close to the face. Too bad it doesn’t swivel like the rest.

here's the real question are they better than the black shark v2 and razer kaira pro?

Should I go to this from a Turtle Beach Stealth 700 gen 2?

could you do an update of the a30 im now with the app and the eq settings

How does this compare to the xbox wireless headset starfield edition ?

Picked these up today and finally got away from turtle beach. Honestly the integrated mic is amazing! It’s such a small thing but not having that in your face is nice. My favorite feature though is being able to play music from my phone but still talk with the boys. $230.00 is a bit much but honestly if you can swing it I would highly suggest doing so. Excellent review man👍🏾

Hi Techne, I'm Tobi from Germany. First I have to apologize for my english, espacially for my writing. I really have to thank you. I was on a long journey to find the right headset, and man I bought the Lucidsound LSX, the Turtlebeach Stealth 700 Gen 2, the Steelseries Arctis 9X, the Astro A50, but I never get satisfied. Then I saw your test of the Penrose Audeze. It was not really easy to get it in germany at a fair price, but now I get it and I have to say: Absolutly outstanding! It's a shame that in germany nearly nobody knows Audeze! Come to a conclusion: THANK YOU TECHNE!!!!!!
