Astro A20 Wireless Headset Usb Replacement

This headset was purchased to replace an entry level Logitech set from about 10-12 years ago. I wanted a comfortable headset for video conferencing that supported usb-c, since both my Pixelbook Go and MacBook Air only have usb-c ports. The fact that this headset can also easily convert into a standard stereo jack was also very appealing. I'm not ready for a wireless headset since I dislike charging too many devices and the mics on Bluetooth wireless headsets usually rate poorly (nearly always, the complaint is that they are underpowered and too quiet). I've used this headset now for numerous many hour long calls. It is lightweight and comfortable, my ears do not get hot, and it does an amazingly good job at blocking out background noise without any active noise canceling technology. The ear pad material was softer than I was expecting and it appears to sink around my ears for a close fit. Sound quality has been very good, and when I asked the people on the other side of my calls how I sounded, they all confirmed that I was clear and easily understood. The cord is very long, and the usb-c connector makes a tight fit. Setup was the same as any other usb headset.

At a certain point a few years back, I decided to make the switch to Astro A40s. And since then, I’ve never used another headset. Going forward, I will only buy future generations of the A40s. The ratio of comfort to sound quality is second to none in my opinion. Incredibly lightweight. I can wear them for hours with no soreness issues.

amazing product, you won't find a better wireless headset.

Paired it up with my Plantronics wireless headset and everything works great

So glad this headset is now wireless! Comfortable with awesome graphics!

Best wireless headset ever… great for biking, running and driving!

I've been looking for a wireless remote for awhile, but once I started astro photography I really needed one. Works perfectly, a very nice tool. Should have gotten this years ago. Will be trying some remote photography for wildlife shots. Highly recommend.

I purchased this lens as I was looking for a replacement astro lens for Rokinon 14 mm F2.8. Without bad mouthing the Rokinon too much, it just wasn't sharp enough. I came across the IRIX lens while reading a review on this site. I'll keep it short and sweet - the lens is tack sharp shooting wide open from end to end with very minimal if any detectable distortion and the locking into infinity mechanism is a nice touch. Between that and the fact that infinity focus was spot on, I give this lens as high a rating & recommendation as I can!

The new headset works great with my wireless mic package. Highly recommended.

I just bought a Cut 1 for my Schoeps Colette system so I needed a heavier duty shock mount than the A20. I wish I had seen this product earlier, it is $40 cheaper than the A20 or A20s and does a better job.
