Angry rant about why the Maxwell has the best audio but is unusable
Never had a single one of these issues in the 2 years I've owned them. Incredible budget headphones and I wear them 5 hours a day, no issue. Hilarious you thinking they're expensive. They're not. These are extremely budget for Audeze. Also, not even the best gaming headphones from Audeze. That would

If you had unlimited money and were tasked to buy the best PC gaming headset, what would you get?
The Audeze LCD-GX is currently the best gaming headset you can get, at least as far as I'm aware. A great and much more budget friendly option is Beyerdynamic MMX-300 Pro.

Maxwell appreciation
Great post. I have two Maxwells. One for Xbox and one for PS5. Both work of course on PC. Also have the Penrose which I still use all the time. Absolutely the best “Sounding” headset on the market. The Penrose and Maxwells were a stepping stone also for me. I have delved heavily into gaming audio an

Maxwell vs LCD
I have the LCD-GX; my understanding is that it's one of the few Audeze headphones that doesn't need EQ to sound normal. I add a little bass shelf but otherwise that's it. They are great for games and music and relatively easy to drive. Plus they're lighter than the other LCD headphones.

Maxwell vs LCD
I have an LCD-GX hooked up to a PC via an Audeze Deckard Amp/DAC and they are very good for gaming and excellent for music. But you also have to deal with them being wired. If I place my phone near the cable it can create some buzz. I prefer a closed back like the Maxwell or Maxwell 2 for gaming, bu

[Tech Support] Help with open back headset whilst gaming
i've used open backs for gaming for a while and yeah, you'll definitely hear your pc fans when there's quiet moments in games. the thing is, during intense action with loud audio, game sounds usually mask it pretty well. between your two picks, the Audeze LCD-GX has fantastic imaging for competitive

[Tech Support] Help with open back headset whilst gaming
i actually swapped to open-backs last year and worried about this too. with the Audeze LCD-GX i can hear my PC fans if the room is dead silent and nothing is playing, but once a game starts the fans disappear completely. the soundstage is worth the tiny bit of ambient bleed. you get way better spati

looking for the best gaming headset 2026. what are you all using?
Because they don't come anywhere near Audeze Maxwell or the Beyerdynamic MMX 330 Pro in terms of sound accuracy, imaging and build quality. The HyperX uses virtual surround sound (DTS) to attempt to mimic the soundstage the proper, open back or planar magnetic drivers provide. If your budget is even

Gunnr still worth it?
Not had a chance to use my Gunnr all that much with my PS5 Pro, but paired up with the Audeze LCD-GX, Battlefield 6 sounded fantastic, you’re in for a treat!
