For years, the A40 has been the “gold standard” in gaming headphones. We now have a headset specifically for those who prefer the click of a mouse rather than squeeze of a controller trigger.
Capture all sounds the developers intended while speaking clearly through our precision mic. Tuned with Astro Audio, the “gold standard” in gaming headphones is now available in a PC specific version.
