Remember to update your firmware once you buy either the Astro A40 or A50. The mic quality is terrible beforehand due to compatibility issues with current gen back when they launched. Once you update it, it'll sound much better. What you do is the following: 1. Take your Mixamp pro/M80 and hook it into your computer via 3.5 mm jack. 2. Download the software needed for the update from the website in the firmware section 3. Install it by opening the file via your documents. 4. Wait a few seconds for the download. 5. Done!
