Review on 🎧 Audio-Technica ATH-PG1 Closed-Back Premium Gaming Headset: Enhanced Gaming Experience with 6" Boom Microphone by Amanda Anderson

Headphones come with two types of mics. External microphone and built-in microphone in the form of headphones. There's an annoying design issue with the wiring of the boom mic that causes audio to bleed from the headphones to the side of the mic, which is annoying as the mic itself is pretty good. When your headphones' built-in volume control is set to either total silence or maximum volume, there is significant crosstalk from the microphone side, causing other participants to hear themselves or what you are hearing. To be clear, it's not that the mic picks up sound from your headphones, it's a wiring issue that causes the headphone sound to bleed to the mic. The problem can be mitigated somewhat by leaving the onboard volume control at exactly 50%; anything less or more will result in crosstalk. The mic mute button also makes a loud pop every time you unmute/unmute, which can be quite annoying for others. I also found the headphones to be a little lacking in detail, but other than that they were fine for the price.
