This guy plagiarized engadgets review word for word. Go check for yourself. It's exactly the same. Pitiful

[MLGSteggy]

@Steven0sborne I don't believe Engadget has a review of this headset. So..yea..

[MLGSteggy]

By the way guys, check out the written reviews that are discussed in the info pane. The written reviews have some information about the A*Star's microphone and even links to a sound clip of the mic's quality!

[ExtinctSlayer]

@ExtinctSlayer @WARSfate

Thanks guys!

Great review as always. I'm not much of an IEM guy, but these seemed pretty solid. Definitely wouldn't replace my PC360.

Speaking of, are you planning on reviewing the PC360? Certain places have it for $180 or so. They are absolutely phenomenal for gaming.

[MLGSteggy]

@ShinCZ I've been attempting to review the PC360's for quite a while now, but there keeps on being delays. Hopefully I'll be getting it soon.

The iBeats are WAY too expensive for what they're doing. I've used both, and unless you're a particularly bass heavy music enthusiast, the Astro A* Stars (in my OPINION) have a much nicer, cleaner sound. Again, this is OPINION.

[Sh4DowRider46]

Lol there's no distortion, just that it goes an extra metre then other earphones in terms of volume.

[TheElitePoop]

does it block out sound good?

[menacer26]

One of the best review videos on youtube. Thanks!

@MLGsteggy hey can u use any mix amp with these and how much would it be in total for these and the cheapest mix amp???

[xXefizzlle18Xx]

Yea you need a mixamp

[thedotiskewl75]

Can anyone tell me which is better in sound quality? these or iBeats?

[GabeTelevision]

So you need a mixamp to use these for xbox 360 for game audio and communication?

[macneil5401]

You need to get some a40 lol they are the best headset I have ever owned

[NamidaSuprise]

I loved your review on the PC300's. They were very good even with low powered sources, unfortunately mine suffered from the cable issues you mentioned in this review. What is the impedance for the A*Star?
