First Maxwell 2 Reviews are coming out

No reduced weight or simultaneous BT! Audeze your so out of touch. This doesn't feel much like a maxwell upgrade more like a refresh.

The first second of audio gets cut off in Windows 11 after a short of silence on Maxwell (PS5 version) in dongle mode.

My experience with HyperX Cloud III S Wireless

Yeah I was also eyeing Maxwells when I was first doing research but Audeze products are waaay too expensive here. Maxwell 2 is still not available, and 1 costs over $470 on biggest discount, with regular price being $1160.

What gaming headphones are the best for pc.

Don’t buy gaming headsets. Go with a good pair of audiophile headphones or IEM’s. If you NEED to go gaming headset, go Hyperxcloud III S, Audeze Maxwell/Maxwell 2, or Fractal Scape.

Is there anyway currently to revert the Maxwell 1 firmware to v1.0.1.56?

Really triggered by the word “Buddy”, huh? Something tells me that even if you were to realize that the conversation was about the Maxwell 1 and not the Maxwell 2(which currently allows rollbacks) you wouldn’t admit to making a mistake.

Is the Maxwell 2 hissing fixable by a software update?

Ive the Arcts Pro wired version and the sidetone is perfect. I still use that headset for Apex Legends as the DAC eq is dialled in perfectly for it. I just this week went and bought a Beyerdynamic MMX 330 pro and dac ( all in about 400 bucks) and they blow the Maxwells out of the water on the main f

Maxwell 2 longevity

I havent had any Audeze myself, but I read a lot about them as I am considering the Maxwell 2.The built quality apparently is solid, just dont drop them because if you do, they will break. But otherwise, they are kinda fragile and I read a lot of people's Maxwell 1 + 2 breaking and or having defects
