Product Description
Arising from a deep heritage of Japanese analogue audio, Audio-Technica high-fidelity gaming headsets continue to deliver a purity of sound that’s all too rare in the gaming world. The elemental power of earth inspires the grounded, closed-back design of the ATH-GL3 headset, making you hear and feel every moment – of a game, a song, a conversation – for a truly immersive experience. But don’t mistake grounded for heavy. At less than 230 grams, the ATH-GL3 is extremely lightweight, allowing you to game for hours in comfort. Inside the closed-back housings are large 45 mm drivers that provide high-resolution audio with exquisite detail. The left earcup has a built-in volume control dial and a mute switch for convenient control of the professional-quality boom microphone. The mic is detachable, as are the two included cables: a 3.0 m (9.8') cable with 3.5 mm (1/8") mic and headphone plugs for connecting to computers, and a 1.2 m (3.9') cable with a 3.5 mm (1/8") TRRS plug for connecting to PS5, Xbox Series X, and other gaming consoles. Compatible with PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, laptops, PCs, and other devices with a standard 3.5 mm TRRS headset connector or with a separate mic input and headphone output.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2024Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseAt first I legit thought they were broken or defects. Turns out it was the long cable the whole time. Ended up using the small cable it came with. bought a longer cord to fight this issue. I have a $140 pair of headphones that can match this one. Only downside to it. it doesn't support my large ears compared to this one. My friend recommended me it. It doesn't pick up my fan when gaming. The voice quality is good but you need to boost the mic sound to the max. At least for me, not for you? Bought it when it still in the $60. seem like I got a good deal at this point. I would highly recommend these gaming headphones. I don't believe, I'll ever find a replacement good as Technica, headphones anytime soon.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2023Color: BlackVerified PurchaseThese headphones are light, comfortable, sound incredible, and the mic is top quality but the cable isn't available for purchase so I'm making a new cable tonight and that's a huge bummer for this price.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2023Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseFirst off the sound is very good for the price. I came from a headset that was almost 70 dollars more and these by far sound better. Super light l. Mic is a little on the low side but that can be adjusted in windows settings and adjust how far mic is from mouth. Mic and cable are removable only downside is the mic slider for on and off is a little confusing. You have to turn it towards off to turn it on and towards on to turn it off. And the volume wheel is small and not easy to locate or turn. But worth the trade off to me for the sound quality and how they feel while gaming for hours at a time.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2023Color: BlackVerified PurchaseThey sound great, if you can get past the rickety squeaking of the moving parts. This headset makes more noise just from its moving parts than any other headphones i've ever worn. my ears hurt while wearing this as the drivers are shallow and the padding thin. i was going to get Wicked Cushion earpads to try and negate this but i don't know if i can handle one more day with the squeaking sounds. i might bite the bullet and return both the headset and the incoming wicked cushions package. i want to like these cause i enjoy the sound profile, but from a name like audio technica, i wish these had more consideration of the wearer... now i don't know what headset to replace these. the cheaper razer v2s felt like clouds on my ears but the microphone just didnt function as well. the mic did sound the best just plugging in than the razer barracudas and the blackshark v2s... ugh. i hate having to return things.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2024Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseEdit - Now the 3.5mm jack has flat out quit on me for no reason do not buy this crap.
Audio is easily one of the best I've ever had but the microphone died out of nowhere
Now the audio is crackling and popping only after 3 months, questionable if I'll buy a replacement or not.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2022Color: BlackVerified Purchasesound quality is pretty good at this price (<$100). Some may complain the cheap plastic looking but overall it is pretty light weight design. I always set volume control and mic to loudest and on, control the volume directly on computer instead.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2024Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseI switched from the ATH AD700X expecting a similar result. These headphones are no where as diverse/well tuned. Play games solo or with my friends is not enjoyable, everything feels bass boosted and I cannot hear people speak clearly during team fights. I went for these because people stated these would be better balanced for gaming but I find that laughable. I don't use the mic, as I have a separate boom arm mic, so I cannot speak on that. I will just be ordering another AD700X and get back the quality I expect from Audio Technica. I should have relied on my gut feeling when I saw the designs of these... :\
- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2022Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseAmazing sound quality along with very light weight and comfortable headset. Only gripe is that it feels a bit cheap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sounding headset for office work
Color: BlackVerified PurchaseI used to use Philips H9505 ANC headphones in the office. Loved them but headband broke and I couldn't find replacement for a long time... I'm very picky about sound quality so numerous popular Sony, Bose, JBL ANC headphones just didn't sound good to me especially for the price... Finally totally accidentally I bumped into the Audio-Technica ATH-GL3 review and decided to give them a try. Love them so far:
Pros:
- Great sound - clean and airy - great for all kinds of music. IMO these sound better than most ANC headphones which are 3 times more expensive...
- Good ergonomics - headset is very light and fits perfectly on my (large) head.
- Closed design - isolates well in the office environment, once I turn on the music I cannot hear anything else. Doesn't leak sound.
- Microphone doesn't pick other conversations going on in the same office (...I have some very loud coworkers...)
- Two cables included - long one with 2 connectors and a short one with single connector. Cables have flat surface (not braided) so they don't produce a sound when touching clothing/table.
- Wired - don't need to charge anything/anytime, reliable connection.
Cons:
- Microphone is not foldable into the headset (to hide it when you don't need it)
- Connector on the headphones looks wider than standard 3.5mm - not sure how easy to find replacement
Notes:
- The headphones have high sensitivity/low impedance so they don't require a headphone amp - you can plug them directly into PC/Notebook using the supplied cables and they sound loud and great...
- I actually ended up buying a small/cheap headphone DAC/amp (Fosi) and plugging the headset into it. The amp has analog Bass/Treble tone control knobs which allows me to tune sound quality to my taste for different records. And yep those simple analog tone control blocks are IMO by far better than any software equalizers... Total cost of the headset with the amp is still about 1.5-2 times less than most popular Sony/Bose headphones and the sound is better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Supero mis expectativas
Color: BlackVerified PurchasePara el precio tiene una excelente calidad de sonido, algo plano pero con un equalizador o amp, esta perfecto. calidad buena a pesar de que se sienten ligeros, muy muy comodos y el microfono excepcional realmente, tomo clases, hago streams y llamadas.. Algo infravalorado en amazon para lo que da
- Deividas ZbarauskasReviewed in the United Kingdom on June 4, 2023
3.0 out of 5 stars is an ok headset
Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseGaming wise is ok, in fps games this will be average headset, if you want something with competitive edge for footsteps in games there is something better in the market. Music wise, even using EQ doesn't help this headset, so if you are looking for something to enjoy music too, this is a hard "no". From what i already tried in the last 10 years of collecting headets and headphones some open back headphones + external microphone combos for similar price or a little bit more would be times better than this headset from ATH. Other headsets tried, that i think are better than GL3 gaming wise: Audio-Technica ATH-AG1X, Sennheiser Game One, Arctis Nova Pro Wireless (even better for music than GL3)

4.0 out of 5 stars Supi bis auf das Mikrophon
Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseMit dem Sound bin ich sehr zufrieden. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt aufjedenfall.
Zwei weitere Pluspunkte:
- Es ist leicht und drückt nicht
- Das Kabel kann ausgetauscht werden(war mir besonders wichtig)
Lediglich in Bezug auf das Mikrophon muss ich eine Negative Anmerkung machen. Die Qualität ist gut genug um verstanden zu werden, ich selbst bevorzuge aber ein klareres Stimmbild.
Ich benutze sie dennoch täglich und ansonsten auch gerne.
