Premium Headset for Podcasting, Twitch Streaming, and More

If you're working from home and need a capable headset for voice and video calls, e-learning, live streaming, podcasting, or anything else, the Audio-Technica ATH-G1 headset is a smart solution. It offers a great-sounding microphone and an exceptionally comfortable fit, exactly what you need for modern media production. The ATH-G1 headset comes with a standard TRRS connector for tablets, smartphones, and newer laptops, and also includes a splitter cable for older PC-style setups. Whatever your needs are for a headset/microphone combo, Sweetwater is sure you'll be impressed with the Audio-Technica ATH-G1 headset.

Remove the mic for headphone-only use

This versatile headset is equipped with a flexible dynamic microphone, delivering studio-quality sound along with easy positioning. And when you're not using voice functionality, you can detach the microphone to get it out of your way.

Compatible with practically any device

From gaming to podcasting to livestreaming, the ATH-G1 headset is equipped for easy connectivity. It offers TRRS output for PS4, Xbox One, smartphones, tablets, and newer laptops and PCs.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Great for my online tutoring work

I am an online tutor for students with dyslexia. My students need to be able to hear me--and I need to hear them--very well. This headset and microphone combination does the job.

Great headset for gaming!!

Just got these today. I'm still used to my Logitech G35's, with the 7.1 simulated surround sound, so it took a little getting used to. I'm an audiophile, so I pick up on the tiny little nuances, especially concerning gaming and music. The first thing I did was play "Wish You Were Here" live, and got a little worried when the beginning only had the sound coming from the left ear. Then Gilmore came in with his acoustic solo... just right.

The headset is light, yet very sturdy! Most headsets give me a headache from the pressure of the earphones pressing so tightly. Not these! Another concern was the detachable mic. Not even an issue! And I'm PICKY about that kind of thing!

It's Audio Technica. A brand well known in and around the music scene for its functionality and durability, as well as affordability. It's not top shelf, but it's not a clearance bin item either. I definitely got my money's worth on this purchase. I just hope it holds up through my music and gaming like my Logitechs did!

Reviews I read on these as I awaited their arrival at my home, said they were a little "flat" on the sound. I found them to be just right. If you want more clarity, a good USB EQ or USB interface will clear all that right up. To me, however, they are just perfect. The bass response is great. My steps in-game I can hear them "thud", but not so much that they steal away from other ambient noises, which come through beautifully. The only way they could be better is if they were the simulated 7.1 surround I'm used to.

headphone review

Very pleased with the low end bass response,comfort and the option of the quick disconnect of the mic boom. A bit high in price in my opinion though.
