Between the two, i prefer the Elite, but i honestly wouldn't recommend either in your case. Maxwell is not comfortable for long hours and the Nova Elite would only be worth it if you play on multiple platforms. I would get either the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro 2 or the Steelseries Nova Pro Omni

I tried the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro 2 after using the Maxwell Gen 1 for a long time, and I have to say the Stealth Pro 2 are lighter and more comfortable overall. However, at the software level, Turtle Beach is still refining some features in the app. In terms of sound alone, the Maxwell Gen 1 prob

Considering its the best wireless headset on fhe market given how feature rich and good it's audio is, theres nothing to worry about. The only other headset that shares any similar bass to it is the Maxwell 2, the Stealth pro 2 pushes out bass like a MF, every one says a headset cant rumble your hea

Depends on your budget. The current top 3 wireless ones are probably Audeze Maxwell 2, SteelSeries Arctic Nova Elite (if want cheaper can go for the Omni) and Turtle Beach Stealth Pro 2

These come close to a perfect score for a wireless gaming headset. It has perfect “consumer grade” sound with a good amount of bass — great for gaming, movies and music. Signature sound is perfect out of the box — no need for eq. It’s not quite audiophile, but that’s not what I want in my wireless h

Yep, when talking about the $250 more I meant the Elite. The Astro A50’s for me I could never really find a sound that I really liked and found immersive. I tried so many different EQ’s with different pad swaps and just thought they sound good. Definitely sounded better than the Omnis. To me even af

That totally depends on your ears. You have to try yourself to see if it sounds different to you. The Maxwells are hard to beat in music, but the Stealth Pro is head and shoulders above the A50 for games. Better to me personally than the Maxwell 2. Maxwell is incredible crisp and detailed, but the T

Try end task on any additional software you might have running in the back ground. I recently had a similar issue and come to find out it was the Swarm 2 software from turtle beach that was completely crippling the game. I’m now returning the Stealth Pro 2s because of this.

I own both and love them. This is assuming you didn't actually mean to say "Maxwell 2". Note Im on Xbox/Ps5. Both sound excellent. The xbox version of both also works on all platforms, including ps5. The Maxwell 1 likely has an edge for music, while the Stealth Pro 2 certainly has a substantial edge

The new Turtle Beach stealth pro 2 is very good
