Audio Technica launches new premium gaming headsets designed for immersion

The sonic gurus over at Audio Technica have designed two new premium gaming headsets: the wired ATH-G1 (£159) and the wireless ATH-G1WL (£229). Both take design inspiration from the Japanese company’s gorgeous ATH-M50X professional studio headphones, and pack specifically tuned large-diameter 45mm drivers that deliver a precise, clear, and fully immersive audio experience. Each headset also features a tailor-made detachable microphone, which should allow for distraction-free chatter no matter where you’re playing. The wireless ATH-G1WL’s also come with added virtual surround sound, and can hold enough juice for 15 hours of non-stop gaming. We suppose the only thing left to do is decide which one you’ll be picking up.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
