Not really, headset's are usually just bad headphones with bad mics attached. sorry man :/ I guess you could try and compare with other people's recording with astros online. If it seems a lot worse he could have a defective unit so u could RMA or return it.

Not really, since a number of headsets do come with good mics attached to them (Though that is a very specific subset of gaming headsets and a good chunk of aviation and broadcast headsets.)

Get it checked or RMA'd if it is a hardware issue.

Friends just got astro a40's got in my teamspeak server ( Codec quality 10) and his mic sounded like shit. Any fixes? for a $200 i expect much better mic quality

No fixes, the mic on the A40s is one of the worst headset mics on the market, same with the a50. Sorry
