Astro has made available a new headset engineered specially for gamers. Their product is targeted toward professional gamers, those who spend serious money building total-experience gaming rigs that don’t miss a detail. The Astro A30 headphones are designed for these gamers who want a set of cans that’ll do everything at home or on-the-go. The A30’s feature two microphones, one a removable boom mic and the other an in-line microphone for mobile talk on an iPhone or other smartphone. A30 also features a swappable cable system, one for PC gaming, another for console machines and a third for mobile use.
The Astro A30 gaming headphones are shipping now for $149.95, with a Dolby 5.1-enabled MixAmp bundle for $229.95. These are likely far out of the price range of casual gamers, but serious gamers with a need for modular, mobile audio options may want to keep them in mind.
