ASTRO A40 Audio System powers not only the tournament, but also the top teams

Despite being officially shipped since just this May, ASTRO Gaming and the A40 Audio System had a fantastic showing at the San Diego tour stop of the Major League Gaming Pro Circuit. ASTRO Gear is already worn by members of three of the top four Rainbow Six Vegas teams, and five of the top eight Halo 3 squads -- as well as many, many other Open and Championship Bracket players.

With ASTRO Pro Racks at each and every station, Pro Circuit contestants found it breathtakingly simple to connect and communicate through the already daisy-chained MixAmps. Combined with Dolby Digital and Dolby Headphone, the A40 Audio System proved a lethal combination for serious tournament players -- especially Triggers Down, who employed A40’s to eliminate perennial favorite Final Boss from the tournament. This was a shockingly early exit -- their lowest finish ever at an MLG event.

Although every single A40 Audio System sold out at the show, they can still be purchased online for immediate shipment here at www.astrogaming.com, in plenty of time for MLG Orlando -- just a few short weeks away.

Congratulations especially to our longtime friend Tom ‘T Squared’ Taylor of Str8 Rippin’ -- whose long-awaited victory was not only well deserved, but also a blast to watch.

Thanks to all of the players, event organizers, and especially everyone who visited the new ASTRO Gaming booth and all of the crew. See everyone in Florida!
