Audeze Maxwell Wireless Gaming Headset for Xbox, Dolby Atmos, Ultra-Low Latency Wireless, A.I. Noise Filtering Microphones.

10/10 audio, 10/10 build quality, 10/10 functionality. The headset is a little on the heavy side.

This headset is very good both for gaming and music. I wish they include a carrying case with it.

after it ran out of charge now it only works if connecting the charge wire.

Really isint as good as people say it is, the overall volume is really low for a headphone that is this "premium", the build quality is good but you can't adjust height, found the sound really lacking without using Dolby atmos.

The most uncomfortable head-strap. It’s basically a stiff piece of pleather that is meant to support 500g directly on top of your head. Plus the max volume on this premium headset is pretty weak. Definitely not worth the price nor the hype.

Son los mejores audífonos que he tenido. La batería es excelente, literalmente solo los cargo cuando me acuerdo de que son de bateria. Aunque cuando estaban nuevos notaba que ciertas frecuencias se distorsionaban y molestaban mucho, con el tiempo dejo de hacerlo (lo deje con música a todo volumen algunos días) Recomiendo calibrarlos con el ecualizador de audeze, utiliza el preset que más se adapte a ti o puedes usar que hice 7dB 5dB 3Db 2dB -2dB -2dB -1dB 0db 3dB 2Db

These are incredible headphones. They are heavy, but you soon get used to it. I bought these in February 2024 for the Xbox to play Call of Duty and they are so good. Install the Dolby Atmos app from Xbox and pair the app with these headphones. Now play Nuketown, Stakeout, Pit, Gala or any of the other maps and experience a whole new level of detailed sound. The number of times I’ve turned and shot someone at a close range due to hearing their footsteps behind me or coming around a corner. The battery life is fantastic, too - I grinded three levels of Prestige over Christmas, all on one charge. No negatives as yet, so I hope they last!

Ho solo 2 giorni di utilizzo con queste cuffie epiche, ma posso già dire che è il MIGLIOR headset (da gioco e non) che abbia mai provato (prima usavo le cuffie microsoft wireless, ottime per il prezzo che hanno ma qua siamo su un altro livello). La versione xbox che ho preso ha connettività a ogni dispositivo pensabile, con aux, usb c, usb dongle, bluetooth hai tutte le scelte. Funziona anche su PS5 con audio 3D spostando il pulsante sul dongle su PC, ma il mix audio/chat non funziona. Appena arrivate ho aggiornato sia cuffie che dongle all ultimo firmware senza problemi. Il volume delle cuffie era inferiore a quello che mi aspettavo ma grazie all equalizzatore puoi personalizzare l audio come vuoi tu e ora suonano magnifiche alzando il volume che arriva a livelli veramente alti senza mai distorcere i suoni e mantenendo chiarezza su tutte le frequenze, qualità assoluta. UNICO aspetto leggermente negativo, quando collegate a una console con il dongle insieme a un dispositivo bluetooth, il dongle avra sempre priorità e per poter ascoltare di nuovo il bluetooth bisogna fisicamente disconnettere il dongle dalla console. Quando il dongle è collegato al PC invece si ha l audio in simultanea che arriva sia dal dongle che dal BT e si puo variare il mix audio con l apposita rotellina sulla cuffia. Su Xbox molte volte appena collegate le cuffie il monitoraggio del microfono viene messo a 0 di default e quindi non viene registrato nessun suono dal microfono, per risolvere basta premere 1 volta la rotella del mix audio sulla cuffia e variare il valore del monitoraggio audio. Detto questo le cuffie suonano epiche e hanno un botto di tecnologia all interno. Fatta la mano con l equalizzatore si adattano a ogni tipo ascolto da musica a fps. C è chi dice che sono pesantissime (pesano 500g), ma appena le mettete dimenticate di averle, super comode. I Pad sono in pelle ultra comoda ma creano un po di calore sulle orecchie dopo un po’ ma niente di estremo, in vendita ci sono ottimi cuscini in pelle ma traspiranti cosi che la qualità audio non ne risente. Ah, la batteria dura almeno 60 ore e si ricarica in 2, vedete voi. Ho conosciuto Audeze con queste cuffie e sono sicuro che in futuro farò la stessa scelta a occhi chiusi.

Audio quality is amazing but I do recommend you get the capra x audio headstrap, normal headstrap is quite stiff and does cause some discomfort after some time. Also recommend getting Wicked Cushion or Deafen earpads, makes the heavy weight of the headset much more comfortable.

I don’t buy anything expensive without a deep dive. Hours of research, endless comparisons, maybe even a spreadsheet. But after scrolling through reviews, now that I actually have it I’ve realized a lot of the important details get lost between the hype and the half-baked opinions. So, for my fellow overthinkers, buckle in, and prepare yourself for my ADHD powered review I wish had been here before I bought these. No fluff (mostly), no buyer’s remorse rant, just what actually matters. Let me preface... If you are trying to find a pair of headphones you can unbox and be blown away immediately, these headphones are not it, at all. Why did I rate them 5 stars then? It's quite difficult actually. Right off the bat this is what I will be covering. (Locate the corresponding emoji for specific information and try not to judge how long I spent on this): ❓-What are these headphones meant for? What would they not be for? Are they for you? ⚠️-How is the sound quality? (actually) •Not the: oMg bEsT heAdphOnes evErrr!! •Or the: these suck don't not sound good at ⠀⠀all not. *insert more lovely grammar here* 🚫-How is the noise cancellation? Is it active, passive? How's the "transparency" mode? 🎮-What's the difference between the X-box and the PlayStation version? 🤓-Annnd what should your decision be? The biggest pro, the biggest con, and my personal suggestions and reasoning. ❓What are these for?❓ These headphones strike a solid balance between gaming and music. For gaming, they’re decent, maybe not as pinpoint-accurate as dedicated high-end gaming only headsets, but still impressive. In some games, I swear I heard in-game voices in an entirely different way, it was scarily good and weird. That said, they lean more toward music than gaming. They’re well-built, not cheap-feeling, and deliver great directional audio. But if you’re looking for a lightweight, on-the-go pair, these aren’t it. They’re heavy (well-balenced and comfortable), but definitely more of a “wear at home” situation. ⚠️The sound quality.(Most important part)⚠️ Here we go, the elephant in the room. If I had to sum up the sound quality in 3 words it would be "jaw-dropping beautiful" but if I had to sum it up in 1 word it would be "ugh". What does that mean you ask? They have the POTENTIAL to sound amazing. But when you first put them on, start playing your favorite song, get ready to be underwhelmed. My airpod pro 2's sounded better, no joke. Why? 1) These headphones require immense amount of EQ work. I'm a bass lover, and if you are too, get ready to cry with disappointment when you first try them. Then after being sad, open the Audeze EQ and put in the preset I attached in my pictures. That's my bass preset. Gives you an idea of the potential these have, get ready to cry again, and in the best way possible this time. 2) Dolby Atmos on PC. Let me save you some time, when you download "Audeze HQ" go ahead and just download "Dolby Access" along with it. It entirely changes the game with these, makes them worth the money. Without it they sound pretty dull and there's less separation of sound profiles. ⠀3) Ear pads. This one may be opinion, but the default ear pads do not give your ears much room. Your ears are RIGHT by the drivers, and it can be intense especially for the highs. I bought the Wicked Cushions cooling pads, and it made it more comfortable AND more importantly changed the sound profile entirely. It gave the frequencies room to work their magic, especially with bass. Mess around with this because it could make or break you keeping this headset. That was a long one, but if you're going to take anything away from this review: These have some SERIOUS POTENTIAL, you just have to work with them. It WILL take hours upon hours of messing with EQS, to find or make one that works for you. If you are a music enthusiast this is a phenomenal next step in leveling up your music. Once you get everything situated, it's a beautiful experience, truly. The 90mm planar magnetic drivers are other-worldly when configured right. Good things are never easy am I right? 🚫Noise cancellation.🚫This is actually pretty simple. No, it does not have active noise cancellation, yes it has passive noise cancellation. This was a hard one for me to swallow before purchasing. Airpods pro 2 changed my idea of what I require a headset to have (Noise cancellation is close to the top) I'm a pretty little princess now, great. Before these I thought of passive noise cancellation as a joke, but it actually does what you would think passive noise cancellation should do. I'm satisfied which is saying something since I'm so picky. They additionally have "side-tone" which is good for hearing things around you, but it's not amazing at higher volumes (gets too harsh), I prefer it off, or really low. 🎮The difference between the Xbox and PlayStation versions?🎮 A LOT. Yet no one talks about it. The Xbox version is the only real choice for PC users, especially if you want Dolby Atmos (which I wouldn’t recommend these without). The PlayStation version can connect via Bluetooth or wired, but you’ll need to buy a Dolby Atmos license and use it wired to get decent sound quality. Bluetooth sounds great but has a noticeable drop in volume and quality. If you’re mostly on PlayStation and occasionally on your phone, the PlayStation version works. But if you’re planning to use these on PC, do NOT buy the PlayStation version just because it’s cheaper, you’ll regret it. 🤓Annnd what should your decision be?🤓 I want you to ask yourself these three questions. 1. Are you okay and willing to spend a considerable amount of time setting these headphones up and messing with custom EQS? 2. Are you looking at these more for music than competitive gaming? 3. Are you looking for portable headphones you can use anytime, on the go? If you answered: 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. No I would rate these headphones a 9.5/10, for anything else I would honestly only give these headphones a 6/10. These are for a very specific person, if you're willing to learn, or you knew these answers right away; these will be the absolute best headphones you've ever used. That's a guarantee. (Biggest pro is superb sound quality) If you're not sure this is you, I still think they are really good, I'm truly just trying to help set your expectations. These aren't the most intuitive or easy to set up (biggest con), but I think they are worth learning. Just be careful! Hope this was helpful.
