    Hopefully their quality control will be a bit better now...

    I've not had any major problems with my Astro headset just yet, but I've read a worryingly high amount possible issues that I could end up with.

    I had one years ago and the right side suddenly had a small speaker sound effect to it. It lasted a few years though and the mixamp still works.

    The USB cable going into my mixamp is causing me an issue, so I need to get another one of those. Thankfully they're cheap enough.

    The other minor issue is that my mic has developed some kind of feedback issue that can't be fixed. I've tried everything but getting a new mic, something they want $15 for. Reasonable, yes... but the shipping is another $15, which I refuse to pay. Especially when it is with UPS Ground (4-6 days!) :D
