Are these headsets worth it?
Hey guys, I noticed that the Astro brand is pretty popular among the public and youtubers. I was wondering if it was all talk or if they really are just that good. I was looking into logitech g930 and g430 but apparently those are considered mid range gaming headsets. (What is wrong with review websites?) Anyway, I didn't really want to look at any other brand because these are the most well known and as far as I know, used. I am open to use Razer though. I just don't want to have super deep bass which I experienced with the Electras.
So are the brands all talk or do they actually function in ways that outshine the competition.
The headsets are:
Astro A40's and 50's
Logitech G930/430
Wireless Razer Headsets.
I'm open to other brands but I'm sort of close minded to Razer, Logitech, and Astro.
Any suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks.
Edit: I'd prefer wireless headsets but it doesn't matter much.
Edit 2: I'm not focusing on Razer. I made this thread so I could move away from them.

Hi. <3[/quote]
People do say that they are overpiced though. And I am leaning toward them being overpriced. But they are compatible with pc and 360
@1RedWhip Hm, okay.
[quote=1RedWhip]Astros or Turtle Beaches. Also wired is so much better than wireless. I hate having to charge them[/quote]
Is the quality good on astros? Like is it really worth $250
[quote=thallforms]I was about to help you but then you said you were close minded to Razer... Cheap ass brand. Cheaper than Beats...[/quote]
Honestly, I realized they were pretty cheap, but they got the job done. So it was more of a "I know this one works and is almost decent."
And why would my opinion affect you helping me? I thought I made it clear that I was moving on, but oh well.

[quote=marauder21]I don't know that much about gaming headsets, but I would recommend for you to look into any potential sponsorships for the youtubers. If they are sponsored by Astro, it is far more likely for them to use the headset despite it being lower quality.[/quote]
I don't think they are all sponsored but the smaller youtubers, (>150k) seem to really like them. And reviewers seem to praise them despite their price.
