Astro were also showing off some improvements to the A50 range of headphones that are currently on the market. One of the best gaming headsets that is currently available, you might think that there is nothing more that could be done.

Well the team at Astro obviously thought the same and they took some serious steps to make these headphones the best the world has ever seen. Coming soon will be an adaptor that will turn your A50’s into 7.1 headphones without the need of an optical port. Yes, you read that correctly, gamers will soon be able to enjoy 7.1 surround sound on their A50’s without the need of an optical out port on their PC.

The adaptor is small and has enough cable which means you can hide it from view if you want to, but perhaps the best bit about it for those that already own the headset is that you will be able to purchase the adaptor on its own. The A50’s are compatible with Xbox One and PlayStation 4 so you don’t need to worry about upgrading when you get your new consoles.
