  • Astro A30 gaming headphones: All-in-one solution for mobile gadget users
    CraveMarch 2010
    We tried out a pair of A30 headphones for a good week and a half, and even without the MixAmp the audio quality was better than expected, and certainly good enough for use with an iPhone or other player.

  • Astro A30 Headset Impressions
    MTV MultiplayerMarch 2010
    There's no question that the A30's are extremely well-designed (assuming you lack a huge head with equally huge glasses) and great sounding. There aren't many high quality headset solutions out there designed with gamers in mind, so Astro is left standing mostly alone in this field, and does an admirable job.
