Astro have announced that the A50 Wireless Gaming Headset is in stores starting today, complete with the new base station.



The original ASTRO A50 Wireless Gaming Headset is the studio’s flagship audio product and today remains one of the most technologically advanced gaming headsets available to gamers and home theater enthusiasts alike. The updated ASTRO A50 Wireless + Base Station has once again raised-the-bar with a slew of feature improvements, comfort and quality adjustments, audio refinements and technological advancements.


The all-new ASTRO Base Station features a 5GHz wireless transmitter that provides clear, low-latency voice communication, while making headset pairing and charging simple. Battle through long, intense gaming sessions in comfort with up to 15 hours of battery life. Hear enemies and objects from all angles with Dolby® Headphone 7.1 surround sound and optimise your chat levels and game sounds with the built-in MixAmp technology. For even more flexibility, the optional A50 Mod Kit (Available December) allows users to swap out the headband and ear cushions for improved noise cancellation and comfort.

“We've optimised the new A50 to make it the best fully wireless companion for your next-gen console and PC” said Aron Drayer, VP of Marketing for ASTRO Gaming. “The A50 represents ASTRO’s commitment to delivering superior audio products and highlights our focus on providing gamers with the most immersive and customisable gaming experiences available.”
