    @spuddGaming how is this after 1 month? when i was a teen i always wanted the a50s, but i could never afford them. Now I can finally get them if i choose. $500 CAD is steep, but i am still very tempted.

    I have this headset and i love it, especially since I use it to switch when playing my ps5, my ONLY issue with it is the white yellows on the mic arm and the plastic that holds onto the ear cups. The cups themselves stay white and look clean. I've thought about putting a sticker or something over the plastic. that turns yellow.

    @SpuddGaming with all the respect, this is not accurate at all. Even the old generations of Astro were allowing the enduser to adjust the settings (using Astro command center) with no limitations, and they can sync that to the headset. Even this is not an option any more.
