Pros

Very easy to use, The sound is spectacular, Made by a company that takes satisfaction seriously.
The Astro A30 keeps out a surprising amount of background noise.
Balanced sound for music, games or VoIP.

Cons

High price point for average gamers, Mics are highly sensitive, Could be a longevity issue to the boom mic jack
This PC gaming headset does not have goldplated connectors.
Inline controls are limited in utility and confusing to use. No inline volume control. Headset is on the bulky side, especially for street wear. Can be tiring to wear for more than an hour.
