STOW, OH, January 19, 2022 — Audio-Technica today announced the introduction of its ATH-GL3 and ATH-GDL3 high-fidelity gaming headsets, featuring both an open-back and closed-back design for users’ preferred listening experiences. At less than 230 grams, both headsets are super lightweight and comfortable for long gaming sessions.

Sticking to their roots of a deep heritage of Japanese analogue audio, these gaming headsets’ features were inspired by the elemental power of the earth and the spirit of air. The closed-back design of the ATH-GL3 headset provides excellent sound isolation making you hear and feel every moment of the game, while the open-back design of the ATH-GDL3 headset delivers a spacious, immersive listening experience.

The large-diameter 45 mm drivers deliver high-resolution audio with exquisite detail. A state-of-the-art, flexible and detachable boom microphone, with highly directional pickup, provides crystal-clear in-game voice communication among players. Each left earcup has a built-in volume control dial and a mute switch for convenient control of the microphone.

Both headsets are compatible with PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite, laptops, PCs, and other devices with a standard 3.5 mm TRRS headset connector or with a separate mic input and headphone output. Included are two detachable cables: 3.0 m (9.8') cable with 3.5 mm (1/8") mic and headphone plugs for computers; 1.2 m (3.9') cable with a 3.5 mm (1/8") TRRS plug for PS5, Xbox Series X, and other gaming consoles.

The closed-back ATH-GL3 is available with an MSRP of $99, and the open-back ATH-GDL3 is available with an MSRP of $129.
