In the market for a new one. My A40 broke. Thanks and have a good drop.
Edit: Thanks for all the informative responses guys. The Astro A40, A50 and the PlayStation Gold seems to be the favorite. Followed by Frankensteining The Senheisser with the MixAmp.
Special mention to PX21 and PX22
PS. Add me on PS4 also if you don't have a clan yet just look us up "Team Sleepy". Open membership. Thanks

Edited by Pierro40: 7/6/2015 4:01:22 PMI was looking for a good one 6 month ago. I wanted a wireless one. My short list was : a50 and steelseries h I choose the steelseries for only one reason, it comes with 2 batteries, one of them is constantly charging on the mixamp. So i strongly advice you to go for the same, because in the a50 you can't even change the batterie ... Ps: I have the ps4 wireless one ... Sold it ...

I love my turtle beach XO One... And I got it on sale at Walmart for $50
-
Whatever you do, don't buy turtle beach. They echo whatever noise is projected by other voices
-
Px4's r great you can get them for really cheap, like 70$
-
You can't go wrong with a pair of beats headphones some have a Mic on the cord if they don't you can buy a cord. Good set of headphones and a Mic.
-
The cheap $10 ones since anything else is a waste of money for non-competitive gaming

Just bought an A40 and it's leagues above the XO4 I was using. My only gripe with it is it does this static sound when the controller powers up.

Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 400

Astro a50s. Crystal clear quality on mic and chat, and sharp game audio. Love em
-
Hands down, if you like quality comfort and sound. A40 with MixAmp is the way to go. I bought 2 pairs. One for my wife and One for me.
-
A40, I love it so much, and it doesn't have the problems of he a50
-
Astro A50
-
Astros A50 I use them with my PS4, Xbox One and PC, plug and play
-
I love my TB Stealth 800s. I can use them on PS4, Xbone, PS3, and XB360, as well as my phone for music while I travel. It's a fantastic headset despite what so many people seem to think of Turtle Beach. I get great sound, no feedback, and I can stream music from my phone to them while getting audio from my game and chat.
-
Anyone else that has the playstation gold headset can confirm how the mic sounds? I heard it was pretty bad
-
Turtle Beach X07.

You should really go Sennheiser. They make some of the best headphones in the industry for all media. The One's have the best sound (due to open ear design); however, if you want to mute the rest of the room completely go Zero's. [url]http://amzn.com/B00GWU8FTK[/url] Research who actually makes Astros and you will realize there is a lot of hype behind them from their MLG sponsorships, etc., but they are not a superbly high performance headset like Sennheiser's are. There are several review videos on YouTube about this as well. Good luck.

I got the Playstation Gold headset only because you can download extra sound enhancement for certain games (like destiny) right into the headset itself. Major difference. I highly recommend it.
-
astro a50 that's what I use and I have it hooked up to my computer and console at once and can hear both at the same time
-
Get the New gen Astro A40 , wired > wireless (quality & perfomance) no charging etc.
-
A50s are pretty beast[quote][quote][/quote][/quote]

I have the a50's and love them! Just remember though, if you play on xbox the a50 is not a true wireless headset because you will have to plug a cord in from the headset to the controller in order to chat. Gay as balls i know! Also if you get A50's you will be unplugging and plugging back in the chat cable quite a bit because you will join a party chat and no one can hear you then you unplug and re plug in and bam it works.
-
[b]Make sure that the one you buy supports surround sound with the mic plugged in! Do your research!!!!!!! [/b]This is more so geared towards Xbox One players, however it might apply to PS as well. I cannot stress the above enough. All the people who buy A40s with the M85 mixamp for $200+ only to get a stereo headset while chat is active. Makes me sad. In terms of Astro specifically, only Gen 2 A50s will work in surround sound with chat plugged in.

Astro A50's

Now if your looking for a cheap and DURABLE mic then I highly recommend the turtle beach px22. Got mine for 60 buck at game stop. But if you want a more expensive mic that a little more comfortable than the px22, then you should get astro A50.
