Astro A50: Volume Wheel: Inconsistency in Volume Control

Wed, 03 Jul 2024 00:54:33 -0700

Can't consistently get the right amount a volume due to a problem with the volume wheel on the a50. Quarter of a revolution upward, and the volume goes to the max. 5-10 revolutions downward to get the volume lowered. What to do to get it working properly again? it's annoying.

Astro A50: New USB breakout wiring?

Thu, 08 Apr 2021 08:33:00 -0700

So the USB port on this pair of Astro A50s is totally botched, can't find a replacement part for it. I decided to try a breakout board, but I don't know what the yellow wire is for, on the original USB board is says it's "Wire 1" I got the unit charging by hooking up the USB+ to VCC and USB- to Ground.

I don't think it's related to the unit not syncing to the base station, but id like to know what the purpose of it is.
