Valve’s latest Steam VR beta update includes a firmware update to address the poor audio quality of the Vive Pro headphones. We tried the update, but we’re still not impressed with the sound that the Vive Pro produces.

True enough. I think I'm going to disconnect the headphones that came with the Vive Pro and just use my Astro A50s instead. The sound quality is very noticeably different.

As an "$800 upgrade" only for existing Vive users, they damn well better fix the issue. I would consider it unacceptable, as it seems most people do. This reminds me of, "Just get the [buggy] game released and we'll patch it once people have bought in...and release DLCs we go."

I agree with Evolution2001. If they really wanted to be lazy, all they had to do was not claim that they were high quality headphones and charge a little less for the headset. Instead, they do the opposite and give themselves bad publicity.
