Which One Of These Headsets Would You Recommend?

I like the Pulse Elite a lot. Had mine since October or November and love how light they are, the sound quality and of course being a Sony product ease of use. People complain the flemsy but to me so far so good. It took a while to get use to the button layout but it’s good with bluetooth playing a

Maxwell 2 vs Maxwell 1; A/B testing impressions

The only other closed back, planar magnetic, wireless headphone is the Sony Pulse Elite. They're also made by Audeze (which is now a division of Sony, since 2023) but reviews all say they're inferior in sound and build quality to the Maxwells.

I’d re

PS5 pro owner, I'm in need of a headset. Any advice?

Agreed!! I have had a white pair for just over a year and they still look brand new. I know some people can be unfortunate but that does happen across all the brands. I initially got the Sony Pulse Elite and had connection issues straight out of the box and they snapped in just 2 months even with ca
