One of the things that I enjoy about CES is being able to take a look at all of the upcoming gear at one single place to get a feel for the trends and product types coming out. At the 2016 CES, the folks at Audio-Technica will be bringing two new gaming headphones with them as well as a several new hi-fidelity headsets.
Expected to make their debut will be the ATH-AG1X (closed-back) and ATH-ADG1X (open-back) gaming headsets. They are compatible with PS4, PC, iPad, iPhone, laptops, cell phones, tablets and the Xbox One with the Xbox One stereo adapter. Both have an expected MSRP of $299.99 and appear to have excellent specs, however I will take a look at them in a couple of weeks at CES and be able to give some impressions and details at that time.
