I had the open and loved it. The closed is only same in name and headband and that is intentional to compliment and contrast and not be redundant. They gave us the bass we asked for in Sundara. The driver is modeled after the R10P. It is however not the same driver. I compared my Sundara Closed with my T60RP. The T60 has slightly better detail and image separation and is warmer. The Sundara is more neutral and balanced. Timbre is better on the T60. Both have good bass extension but the T60 bass holds more weight in the notes. I prefer the T60, but like the Sundara. I think it came out overpriced and sits so much better at $249 now. The open and closed would make a great first good start for someone entering the hobby. The Zen DAC/Can pairs very well with them. Great video. Thanks!

Thanks so much! Yeah the Sundara closed had the issue of also competing against the Meze 99 Classic which is also bass heavy, but has better resolution in the mid range and treble area.

@@GadgetryTech I sold my 99 Classic. I found them to lack detail and imaging. They are warm and fun but missing that exciting wow factor with great recordings. After running the Sun Closed over time the imaging seems more precise compared to when I first got them. The only thing I don't like is the hollow resonance in these lightweight cups. Wish they were a heartier wood grain. The T60 wood is heartier sounding when tapped upon.

The T60RP has better sound isolation than many closed back headphones. I love my Sundara Closed, but my T60 sounds a bit better (detail, imaging, richer, smoother bass), is built better (much nicer wood and stronger frame), and isolates sound a little better as the SC cups are very microphonic. @@roberta949

Nice review. Could you do a video with some nice custom Eq for the maxwell? That would be amazing. I tried to do by myself but I still prefer the emersive mode from Audeze. I want an eq for open world games or linear games like God of war or horizon forbidden west.

Nice review. I'd love to see you review the Focal Bathys. Not especially for gaming though.

Are you able to try and review the meze empyreans and or the elites? Don’t know how possible it is, but curious to hear your thoughts!

These are on sale for $149.99 right now on Amazon so are they worth it for gaming at that price??? Just curious???

Just bought one, I think at that price, it will justify for the differences

🔝 Hey GadgetryTech many gamers on the hunt for the best Headsets ends discovering the Headphones Worlds and touching the Audiophile Galaxy 🤯, what about you make that Bridge for us? Like review some MID tiers Headphones and show how they compete agains the Best Headsets around? and why they can be a better option in some cases. I am lookin for the best sound/confort for music and movies, but also something that work good for gamming. I want to go with the Epos H6PRO closed back but also checking some headphones like: AKG K371, ATH M50X, DT770pro, DT990pro, HD560s, HD600, Anker Q30, Anker Q45, Sundara, HE400...
