Wired gaming headset with 45 mm drivers
The Audio-Technica ATH-G1 is a wired over-ear headset built for gamers who prioritise studio-quality audio and clear communication. Large 45 mm drivers deliver a wide frequency response from 5 to 40,000 Hz. A flexible boom microphone with highly directional pickup ensures crystal-clear voice chat. Detachable earpads and headband allow easy replacement for long-term use.
3.5 mm analogue connection limits
The headset connects via a 3.5 mm gold-plated stereo mini-plug with a 2.0 m attached cable. Audio quality and microphone performance depend entirely on the host device's onboard audio codec or sound card. No digital signal processing, surround sound virtualisation or software EQ is built into the headset itself. Inline volume control and a locking mute switch provide basic one-hand adjustment without software.
High 1,300 mW input capacity headroom
With a maximum input capacity of 1,300 mW and 45 ohm impedance, the drivers handle loud, dynamic game audio without distortion. The lightweight 0.64 kg construction reduces fatigue during extended sessions. The wired design eliminates battery life concerns and wireless latency. Buyers needing wireless freedom, active noise cancellation or USB digital audio features should consider other form factors.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 45 mm driver version or the 46 mm driver version?
The headset uses 45 mm drivers; the 46 mm figure appears only in the feature list and refers to the same driver size.
What does the 5 – 40,000 Hz frequency response mean when I’m gaming?
It means the headset can reproduce deep bass down to 5 Hz and detail up to 40,000 Hz, so explosions and subtle footsteps both come through clearly.
How does the 3.5 mm jack limit audio quality on my PC or console?
The 3.5 mm analogue connection caps the signal to stereo PCM; you won’t get surround decoding or high-resolution digital audio unless your device provides its own DAC.
