@The_Privateer Жыл бұрын
A little late comment, but I have to echo the majority opinion - these things exceed the hype - it's real. Musical sound quality, Gaming sound quality, voice sound quality, General sound quality, convenience. All of it. The microphone tends to compliment my voice timbre and others have noted how good my mic audio was - it tends to be a tiny bit on the warmer side, but certainly not muddy or muffled. Sure, it isn't 'the best' mic quality, but aside from a dedicated 'podcast' or 'broadcast' mic setup - it's perfectly solid. Plosives and sibilance are alleviated with mic placement - just position the mic boom a little off tot he side and you're golden. I don't really use the noise suppression since I'm usually in a mostly quiet environment. The sentiment in the video of these being "one of the very best tuned closed back headphones on the market available today" is spot on. My 'other headphones' are the Hifiman Ananda Stealth and a Burson Playmate 2 DAC/Amp - and these Maxwells are close enough in sound quality that most of the time, I just don't care and it just doesn't matter which 'phone I'm listening to. Yes, the Hifiman/Burson combo is 'better' and you can tell a difference (which becomes un-noticable after 10 minutes because of accommodation), but man - if you want something with a built in mic, these Maxwells are the ticket. I just wish they would get their PC app fully functional and sorted. "Way too good for the price" perfectly sums up these 'phones - actually even 'way too good for double the price' is probably more accurate.

what a fantastic review. really glad i found someone who not only understands what these headsets are made for, but also knows audiophile expectations. im so happy i saw this before i pulled the trigger on the Nova, i didnt even know this was coming out! im also coming from the Arctis Pro Wireless and they recently broke (time for an upgrade). I have a good collection of audiophile cans but no audeze. was really struggling between the two, but with my preference to audio quality to bells and whistles, this review was a godsend.

How have they been? I'm seriously wanting a quality wireless headset. I've tried 3 or 4 different wireless and 2 or 3 wired headsets and returned them all because they just didn't get quite loud enough or beat the sound in my $40 wired Hyper X headsets. However I never spent $300+ for the top tier lines and have always heards its a waste to buy the Nove Pros for consoles since you can't utilize Sonar. So I stumble across these after learning about Sony's acquisition of Audeze. I think these would suit me better as they are just over-all finer tuned. I only game on ps5 and sometimes on my ps4 pro. But that base station on the Nova Pros seems to still be an advantage over everybody.

It's obvious how much time and care goes into them and your ability to confidently discuss almost all aspects without getting too far into the weeds makes every video an easy watch. Glad to see the wireless headset game is really taking a step up! I remember trying one a few years ago and being heavily turned off by all the compromises just to ditch a wire (when I basically just play at my desk anyway) - happily that appears to be far less of an issue, at least with these more premium offerings.

15:42 - Yeah pretty much. Personally I dont play any games at any notable level so I really want something that sounds good and immerse me in the game. Back when I actually played a couple of games in competitions and such though, I absolutely did not want sound stage at all. The narrower, the better spesifically because you already know every single map so damn well that you just know where they are regardless. All I wanted from the headset is to force feed into my ear that someone is actually there. Im very tempted to get these after hearing this praise, it sounds like everything im after in a gaming headset tbh. Theres only a couple of things I still wonder about though: 1 - Can they charge while being used over USB-C, and do they have charge protection? B - Is this user servicable? Can you actually access / replace batteries, pads or other consumable parts? 3 - Is this compatible with any other 3.5mm boom mics or is there some arbitrary limitation that only the one they provide works? IV - If I get this, will the rest of my headset collection not receive any love anymore? :(

I tried the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless for a week while I waited for my Maxwell to arrive. Immediately after plugging in the Maxwell and listening to a song, I started packing the Steelseries headset back up in the box to give away to a friend. The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is a good gaming headset, but a far cry from enjoyable headphones. I found myself comparing the Maxwell to my workhorse HD 6XX, which should be enough of an indicator on its own. The 6XX edges out the Maxwell in clarity and soundstage, but the planar magnetic drivers in the Maxwell give a much warmer response. I find myself reaching for my Maxwell headset even just for listening to music while walking around the house to do chores. The Maxwell kicks ass. It has a few growing pains to get through with software, but it’s the first time a wireless headset has impressed me enough to cut the cord between my DAC and my head.

Nice review. Since my Virtuoso is literally falling apart after 3 years and has a lot of problems i guess my new headset is the Maxwell.

Have you tried out the Beyer Dynamic DT770(250ohm)'s paired with a DAC, Vs the Audeze Maxwells. Would love to ditch the Wire, Dac & Cables, but I'm not willing to sacrifice sound quality. I previously had the Penrose, but i felt like the DT770's edged them out.

You had me sold on them until I heard the mic quality. They make you sound like you work for dispatch. They built in one sounds like it has permanent feedback. My personal opinion aside, this review is utterly amazing and I am definitely subscribing.

Hell yeah to the Joe callout! His channel is pretty rad and he does a damn good job in his reviews! Currently rocking these as my main wireless headset. These are endgame, on that front. They blow my wired main, the VZR Model One, out the water for pure sound but the VZR does beat it on soundstage and imaging. That headset can be a cheat code, sometimes, but man it's just so warm in tone. Getting an ATH-R70X soon, so looking forward to what the world of open backs introduces me to! Great review and great callout!

Appreciate the review and look forward to your thoughts on the Stealth Pro. I am curious though; has the Nova Pro comfort started to bother you at all? I know the anc nub started to bother Joe from Gadgetry and Dimitri from Kanucks, so curious if you have experienced any discomfort at all over time. Thanks I’m advance for any input.
