Best Quality ... but PC or Mixamp required.

Verified Purchase:Yes
The "Game Zero" is a multi-platform headset ... unlike the "Game One" designed for PC. My Game Zero" review is based on use with my XBox One and compared with my "Astro A40 with M80 Mixamp", and "Astro A40 TR with Mixamp Pro".
Pros:
- Best quality and feel of all my headsets ... most comfortable.
- Best customer support ... easy and timely access. Whereas Astro has "NO" phone support ... and response time is a few days which is unacceptable and just plain horrible.

Cons:
Even though the ohms to drive the headset has been reduced to 50 ohms (use to be 150 ohms). The controller is unable to provide adequate power ... thus the sound is weak even at full volume.
(Attempts to use my Astro M80 Mixamp with it failed due to Astro's proprietory TSSSR plug).
Connected it to my Astro Pro Mixamp and the sound is on par with my "Astro A40 TR" headset ... and this is the way I use it. (Only when I hook them directly to TV for additional power do the headphones shine over all the others (but no mic when hooked up this way).

When will these be available in store?
While not yet carried in store ... they are available from Best Buy online. (I was in Best Buy ... and had them order them for me).

What impedance rating does your G4me Zero have?
According to Sennheiser, they changed the Zero up to where it is now 50 ohms instead of the 150 that Best Buy and most other retailers say the rating is.
That is correct ... this headset ohm requirement has been reduced from 150 to 50 ohms (see my review).
