A truly high-end gaming headset

The Audeze Maxwell for PlayStation is a game-changing gaming headset from Californian manufacturer Audeze (pronounced like "odyssey"), with features and performance that no other wireless headset can offer. The Maxwell is equipped with 90mm planar magnet drivers (more on those later), which will amaze listeners with punchy bass and brilliant precision. Thanks to its ultra-low latency wireless technology, the headset provides an essentially lagless connection, with almost three times the range of standard 2.4GHz systems. It's also fitted with BT-5.3 functionality, which supports the LC3plus, LE Audio, and LDAC codecs, and can process high-definition audio at up to 96kHz/24bit, either wirelessly or via USB. But the most exciting feature for truly dedicated gamers is without a doubt the Maxwell's record-breaking battery life of over 80 hours!

Full functionality with the Audeze HQ App

The physical controls for volume and game/chat balance are located on the left earpiece, as is the input for the removable microphone. However, far more detailed configurations - for a personalised audio experience - can be accessed using the Audeze HQ App, which is available for iOS, Android, Windows, and MacOS. The free-to-use app operates a multi-band EQ and six presets designed specifically for gamers - there's one to make opponents' steps more audible when playing competitive shooters, for instance. Users can also save up to four individual sound profiles. To keep players' communication channels crystal clear, the boom mic not only has a focused hypercardioid pickup pattern, but also AI-aided background noise suppression. And to keep gamers fully immersed, the reinforced dual chamber earpieces with passive noise cancelling effectively keep the world outside at bay.

For pro gamers and e-athletes

When a peripheral costs nearly as much as the current-generation consoles themselves, we're clearly dealing with a premium product for e-athletes, or gamers with ambitions to go pro. With sound quality good enough for the strictest audiophiles, ultra-high-end wireless performance, and a battery life that no other headset on the market can match, the Audeze Maxwell wins every round when it comes to truly top-class gaming headphones. Many ordinary wireless headsets still can't help but struggle with slight (but perceptible) delays in transmission latency. This is a dealbreaker for pro gamers, and it's quite simply not an issue with the Maxwell. With a battery life of over three days(!), it also needs to be comfortable to wear, and the Maxwell scores a flawless victory here too, making it easy to get lost in multiplayer battle royales or endless open-world adventures. Of course, the Audeze Maxwell for PlayStation supports Sony's proprietorial Tempest 3D audio technology on the PlayStation 5.

About Audeze

Audeze was founded in 2008 and still has its HQ in California, and has made a real name for itself among hi-fi fans and audio professionals as a manufacturer of high-end headphones. Unlike many other companies, though, Audeze relies primarily on planar magnet technology in its headphones. There are models specially designed for audiophiles, and others that are widely used in professional studios. Audeze also has a number of models that have been specifically created with the needs of gamers in mind: These headsets usually offer functions like virtual surround sound, noise-suppressing microphones, and especially high levels of comfort for long gaming sessions. Audeze headphones are very much part of the premium sector, which is reflected both in their sound quality and their prices.

Not just for the PlayStation 5

Gaming headsets are, for reasons that have to do with both hardware and licencing, usually only compatible with one of the competing consoles – this is also true of the Audeze Maxwell. If it's connected via USB or being used in wireless mode (which requires the dongle included here), the PlayStation version cannot be used with Xbox consoles. Of course, thanks to its 3.5mm headphone jack, the headset is more or less universally compatible and can be used with practically any device with a suitable audio socket. The downside here is that there are likely to be limitations in running the 3D audio technology, and with the device's functionality in general. PlayStation and Xbox fans are thus advised to go for the Maxwell model designed for their favoured platform. One final tip: PC gamers should choose the PlayStation version, which is slightly cheaper as it doesn't include a licence for Dolby Atmos.

In the spotlight: Magnetostatic headphones

Unlike traditional dynamic headphone drivers - which use a fixed magnet coil to move a diaphragm or membrane - magnetostatic headphones, also referred to as planar magnet headphones, employ a very fine, lightweight membrane laid out between two magnetic plates. By way of vacuum evaporation, a razor-thin conductor loop is applied to this foil membrane, allowing an electronic signal to pass through it. The membrane is thus itself a conductor, surrounded by a magnetic field that is distributed evenly over its entire surface, enabling precise and uniform motion, because force is applied to the whole of the membrane at once. Because of this consistent application of force, very low levels of distortion can be achieved, and the membrane is able to react more quickly and precisely to audio impulses. All of this means that magnetostatic headphones frequently deliver impressively authentic sound quality, with a clear mid-range, precise treble, and powerful bass.

Amazing sound, terrible comfort

Hans med H 02.10.2024

I tried really hard to like this headset from Audeze. The build quality feels solid, which is also backed up by the half kilo of material you strap onto your head.

The headband. The leather strap comes with 3 sets of holes on each side, so unless your head is perfectly fitted (out of the 3 options they give you) you will have to deal with an asymmetrical setup. To change the position you will have to pull the strap out from the pegs on the side of the headset and plop it back in again, which you cannot do without mildly harming the leather strap.

Once I found a setting I could live with, I put it on, and I noticed two things. The sound is amazing, and wow is this thing heavy.

It didn't occur to me at first, but I was moving around the headset on top of my head to find spots that weren't sore after wearing the headset. The leather strap is very hard, and it's carrying a lot of weight, which lead to a lot of fatigue from wearing it, rather quickly.

There are many discussions on reddit where people have found various kinds of padding that they have applied to the strap to get more comfortable. I felt like I didn't want to spend more money on a headset that already cost €350.

Lastly the microphone. It seems to be a lottery, some people have no issue with the microphone, others have nothing but issues. Some say it's only for discord, others say it all around. My friends told me that it "sounds like i am talking through a pillow". I guess I was just unlucky with the microphone? Audeze has a guide on how you can change some settings, but since I have multiple headsets, I didn't want to make significant changes to discord because of one headset.

The sound is nothing but amazing, and it's the reason I kept trying to find ways to make the headset work even though my head was hurting from wearing it.

Keep it mind, I was wearing it for 4-8 hours a day. If you are only going to wear it for 2-3 hours sessions every now and again, the fatigue might be less significant.

Seriously, but at your own risk. There are a lot of people out there praising it as the best wireless headset around, I would've wished to be one of those people.

Maxwell ps

Igispeed 15.07.2023

Coming from hyperx cloud i can speak as average home user. Headset is perfect in every single way. Build, comfort and SOUND. Sound is for me another level. In my own words: rich, clear and powerful. Audeze app is simple and eq provided with app is super. But if u wana unlock full potential of headset i recommend 3-party eq with more parametric features. Gaming, music, chatting.. look no further if you wana step up from average headphones. This will blow you away straight out of the box. Thank you seller for fast and professional service. Cheers

Pretty good for the price

HollowKG 22.01.2025

Honestly nothing beats these for 300 eur in the wireless section, Ive tried others close-ish but they dont even stand close. Directional sound is amazing, clarity could be better but good regardless, treble is good, not too bright, bass isnt muddy either. These honestly sound the same as open backs do.

The best wireless headset on the market

Zeto 28.01.2025

Coming from a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X I wanted a wireless headset without compromising on the sound quality and these deliver. The Audeze app lets you configure the sound profile (if you dont have an application already) to really get the most out of the headphones all while having great range and great battery life.
