To recap
This is a lightweight and comfortable headset that’s easy to wear for hours and hours. As you’d expect from an Audio-Technica headset it’s great sounding and has a rich audio range. It blocks out more background noise than the ATH-GDL3 open back, though the earcups are unfortunately shallow.
