Hello,

Someone can help me ?

The xbox series X don’t recognise the mic of my Astro A50 ... I have Try all it’s possible ( new headstet by Astro, new cable, all updates frome Astro Command Center, Optical cable frome tv who works only 1 time .... )

Anyone have the same issue ?

cordially

I'm in a similar situation...

I use astro a50 gen 2 headset for my audio through optical port, without the optical port on the Series X my £299 astro headset is useless, just had order and spend another £299 for the astro a50 gen 4 to work with the Series X,

I would have rather have paid an extra £5-£10 more for the Series X console for it to have an optical port than having to pay out £299 for a new headset

I use a 4K monitor but it has no speakers, so I'm stuck with no audio at all for the Series X until I get my new headset.

There are many different make, brands and models of headsets out there, its hard to choose one to recommend and it depends on how much your willing to spend,

I'm using the Astro A50 Gen 2 headset ( 2015 ),

This is the Astro A50 Gen 4 headset ( 2019 ), which is much newer than mine and the one i would go for if i had to replace mine,

Best to shop around to see what there is, and what your willing to get or see if one else post any recommended headset,

or you can make a new post to ask for recommendation on Xbox headsets.
