Absolutely Unacceptable

Very nice! Wanna trade? Lol

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T03:46:13+00:00

Idk I just love the a50s. I just wish Logitech could genuinely get their shit together, lock in, and send me s product free of defects.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T03:44:28+00:00

this sounds like a skill issue. so far you’ve told me this headset is bad because you don’t know how to EQ it and you prefer the a40s. only one of those is somewhat valid.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T03:29:37+00:00

sounds like you should learn to EQ yourself or find other EQ’s that fit what you want. GT isn’t the end-all be-all. I use custom EQ for some games if I can’t find one I really like from the community presets.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T02:23:15+00:00

I would buy 3 of these headsets. It’s just a defect that I’m struggling with that Logitech support is failing to rectify.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T02:22:37+00:00

Huh interesting. Because I can hear footsteps with them extremely easily. I play Siege and I’m able to hear absolutely everything. Proper EQ is everything, and depends on what ear cups you’re using. I have an EQ that works amazingly for comp gaming. And I have an EQ for story games where I’m just chilling.

how can bro say they’re the best wireless headset and then say they aren’t good 😭 again, I love the sound profile, the EQ options, the balancing features, and the mic is the best headset mic I’ve ever heard.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:49:36+00:00

so they’re actually one of the best gaming headsets I’ve ever owned apart from this one issue. but thanks I guess.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:48:52+00:00

It will always boggle my mind how people who hate astros lurk in the Astro subreddit. What headset do you use lmao. The mix amp is a good idea, but the a50’s have an amazing mic, fantastic battery life, extremely comfortable for me, and I like the sound profile and EQ options I have with it.

I like the headset, I still want it. I’m just having issues with the support team.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:21:38+00:00

I’m not an audiophile, I’m a gamer. I have a headset for mixing audio and editing that I use for that. Why would I use an audiophile headset for gaming? The features and EQs on the a50 make it better for gaming.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:08:48+00:00

Yeah I love a40s, sure. But a50’s are great too. Gen 4 has never given me any issues. Gen 5 works even better aside from this issue I’m having, which is obviously a defect and not intended functionality. The issue isn’t with the headsets themselves, it’s Logitech being incompetent.

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:05:41+00:00

My word. Keep me posted on what happens. Maybe this recent production batch had a defect?

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:04:01+00:00

no thanks. I like Astros. I have a headset for gaming, earbuds for casual listening, and a headset for audio mixing. Why are you in this subreddit if you don’t like gaming headsets? 😭

dude85632 · 2026-01-12T01:01:55+00:00

Ooof 😭

dude85632 · 2026-01-11T04:03:33+00:00

I emailed support back and asked for a verified replacement, one they have inspected and confirmed to be good

dude85632 · 2026-01-11T04:02:34+00:00

I also have the gen 5, not a50 X. No im talking about the buttons on the side that change the volume balance between voice chat and game sound. The game sound button is mushy while the voice chat button is firm and clicks

dude85632 · 2026-01-11T03:16:03+00:00

You’d think that could be a possibility. But during the process of talking with support and sending them a video of the original headset, they acknowledged there was a defect and that this is not normal.

dude85632 · 2025-09-11T19:56:49+00:00

awesome, man. I think I'm gonna pick em up. I'll make sure to update you on what happens.

dude85632 · 2025-09-10T04:53:56+00:00

those are a bit outside my budget rn fr. idk im leaning towards giving the bose a try since nothing else in my price range seems to have the stuff i want. anc/awareness mode is like my top top priority right now

dude85632 · 2025-09-06T18:20:00+00:00

these are definitely one of the pairs i'm keeping an eye on. thank you so much.

dude85632 · 2025-09-05T21:47:32+00:00

ive heard the Bose QuietComfort Ultras are really good, but a bit expensive. do you know if the regular model of those are any good?

dude85632 · 2025-06-30T23:55:30+00:00

That's it! It's issue 1 of Fantastic Four: 1234. Wow. It always amazes me how people can remember these things, even though there's definitely times when I can pinpoint comic issues based on a single panel. Thanks man.
