Founded by Brett Lovelady and Jordan Reiss to create an authentic gaming brand to answer the rising popularity of the gaming lifestyle, Astro Gaming values design as much as any other component of their business such as finance, marketing, and engineering. This plus the fact that they sell their products directly to the consumer translates to a lower price point and a design that is directed specifically at the consumer. In 2008, the Astro Gaming A40 Audio System became the official licensed headset of Major League Gaming. Since then, they have launched a myriad of other headsets and accessories including the A30 Audio System, the A*Stars, and the new A50 Wireless System. Astro Gaming was acquired by Skullcandy in April 2011 and placed #13 on Inc. 500’s list of the America’s Fastest Growing Companies in 2011. Astro Studios has been recognized with accolades from a wide range of design and business organizations, including Red Dot awards, the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA) 365 Awards,the Chicago Athenaeum Good Design Award, and the ID Magazine Design Annual awards.".
