That mic sounded really good

[@maxchronicler]

Thanks you Keith for keeping us informed with your videos. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@OfficialGamesky]

Thanks so much, man!!!

[@rosamariagarciatorres1961]

Thank you very much!

[@KayBearYT]

I ordered mine last month and they will finally be here tomorrow morning. I'm so excited

[@codyhernandez1738]

Love my pair best headset ever Dolby atmos works amazing on these

[@GoombahGoombahGoombah]

Have you noticed any issues yet?

[@KayBearYT]

@@GoombahGoombahGoombah Nope mine are working well however the default sound profile was kinda underwhelming so I got 2 eq settings from gadgetry tech for games and 2 from reddit for music and now im really enjoying it however i wouldnt recommend them if u mainly want them for footsteps my ears do get warm but i dont want to get accessory for it since it will alter sound a bit. i have it set between 22 and 23 mm wish there was a 22.5 mm setting for headband because 22 mm (both straps in middle) is too tight for me and 23 mm ( one in middle one on bottom) seems a bit loose

[@proxyhx2075]

I was interested in these.. this video is the nail in the coffin! I gotta grab myself a pair :]

[@jamesstevens968]

I wouldn't buy these you will be sorry I've had mine since day one there too too too heavy for every day usage they gave me a severe neck pain and headache I play 5 to 7 hours every day I haven't used mine for 5 months they might be good if you play 1 hour a day casual gaming 3 times a month if you want the best best sound go wired I'm waiting for the meze 109 pro wired headphones suppose to be in today and get you a decent dac amp I have the fiio k9 and the nova pro dac sound will not get any better than that stay safe and happy gaming to all

[@proxyhx2075]

@@jamesstevens968 Thank you for your concerns, but I think I will be fine with this choice. I've had some pretty hefty headphones above 400 grams in the past years. I usually wore them all day long and I've never had any fatigue due to the weight on my neck. I already have a great audio setup focused on a natural sound signature. So having a gaming focused pair of Bluetooth headphones would be a great addition to the setup. The only Bluetooth headphones I own right now are my 4 year old Skullcandy Crusher Evo's. They're a really fun kit for bass heads like me but they kind of lack in terms of audio quality and basic functions. I need a serious upgrade and I think the Audeze Maxwell's fit my criteria perfectly. They would replace my old and worn out Skullcandy headphones, and the Sennheiser PC38X pair I use for gaming. A 2-in-1, two birds with one stone kind of purchase in my opinion. No more dealing with wires when I'm gaming. Also experiencing a "fun" and unique sound signature that isn't really killing the sound quality overall. The reason why they also replace my Skullcandy headphones is because of how unique and lively planar drivers sound. They aren't as boring as conventional dynamic drivers in my humble opinion.

​​@@jamesstevens968you might need to check your posture, brother. I wear these for about 2-3 hours a day, listening to music and gaming with the occasional 8 hours every now and then when the crew is online and never had a noticeable problem

Nice sir.... When you do your sound test when you did your you're saying it's got a AI technology, is it any chance that you can do it with the second part of it so what's your typing and see if the the mic cancel that keyboard sounds please .. 😊

Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.

[@keithb5434]

I have had these for about 90 days. If you are on the fence do yourself a favor and buy them, it really brings the game to another level. I can never go back to another headset. I literally tried the Steel series, Razr, Turtle beach, and microsoft headsets. I sent them all back for one reason or another. The Maxwell's blows them all out of the water. They are not even in the same world.

[@mr.richard3715]

price is more than 2x - ofc it should be better than!

[@keithb5434]

@@mr.richard3715 true but most of the time the more expensive hardly lives up to the hype.

[@alsius9162]

In what way mate? Genuine question. I've never known any wireless headsets sound particularly better than any other wireless

[@keithb5434]

@@alsius9162 when you get the maxwells turn off the volume limiter and hone in the EQs. The headset is sublime. I also use it to listen to music because of its fantastic sound. 90 MM planar drivers offer up to 50,000 hz. Also battery life is 80 hours. I’ve only charged my headset a hand full of times since getting them. The flaws I have are that they are a little bulky and the ear pads can be a little hot. I thought the weight was gonna be an issue but once I put them on I don’t even notice it. I got ear pads that make it cooler so that issue is solved. Totally happy with my purchase. Unlike the other headsets I’ve used the Maxwell’s are more versatile and just better in every aspect. I use them as a headset for pc, Xbox, and music.

@@alsius9162 astro a40's are hard too beat most of the time. these are good though, they're a game changing to some games.

[@mote790]

the Dolby license is about 15$ so you save money either way buying the PS version if you are on PC

[@casneon5216]

Literally 10 dollars rn so that’s what I did too

[@da_dude_grubb73]

I have the PlayStation Maxwell and love them. I put the freeze cooling pads from wicked cushions on mine and they're great. I play COD warzone mostly. Only issue I have is having to update the dongle with a PC when the app just will only update the headset qhich to me is odd but it is what it is. I really like that i can chew gum, eat chips and no one in my chat knows that im doing so. Wven if my girl is vacuuming in the background they don't hear it. Overall I always recommend these to everyone I've talked to about gaming headsets.

[@jamesstevens968]

Hi I've had my audeze maxwell since day one and I regret buying them there too too too too heavy for every day usage they gave me a severe neck pain and headache I play 6 to 8 hours every day they might be good if you play one hour a day or casual gaming I've tried evey earpads and headbands still a no go and ther not comfy and there too too bulky gaming headphones or headsets are garbage either they don't sound good or there too heavy not comfy if you want the best go wired I've ordered the meze 109 pro wired headphones suppose to be in today and get you a nice decent dac amp I have the fiio k9 and the nova pro dac and the mayflower arc amp all those will work for ps5 sound will not get better than that stay safe and happy gaming to all

[@da_dude_grubb73]

@@jamesstevens968 I've personally not experienced any headaches or anything from the weight of the headset. I do know that they're heavier than most. I game for hours on end myself and don't even think about the weight of them at all . I believe everyone's mileage will very based on our own weight and body type as I can see maybe a skinny person having more of an issue with the weight of the Maxwells than say a heavier person. Hope you enjoy your new headset and I would sell the Maxwells on eBay or something as I feel you wouldn't have a problem selling those at all.

[@YouTube_changed_my_username]

Can you connect Bluetooth at the same time as connecting to the Xbox? My current one allows that so I can listen to my phone while still hearing my Xbox audio.

[@gekkiman1227]

It cant, but i know that before purchasing. I feature I didn't needed. It can be connected at the same time but only one sound from each source at the time

[@anthonytaylor4720]

I'm surprised you haven't reviewed the CMF BUDS.

[@ProjectPewgf]

Unfortunately fastest claimed usb dongle for wireless headset is 15ms input lag (Razer bercuda usb c dongles) which is far too noticeable in fighting games tekken etc so wired forever it is unless another company claims even lower input lag around 5-7ms.

[@skrymebruh1401]

Great headset BUT they are pretty heavy i had to refund mine cause i got headaches from the uncomfy headband and the weight pressing down on my head

[@aus1046]

I wish thy would make a lightweight pair. I sit on my computer for way too long and it's just more comfortable having less weight on my head for extended use.

[@Medsas]

audeze doesnt make anything lightweight 😂

Did you change any settings when you did the mic test? I only ask, because you have one of the best sounding mic tests for this headset review, it almost sounds like you didn't even switch between your production mic and the headset mic.

it looks like you almost maxxed out the headstrap height when you put it on. doenst look like it would be good for anyone with a bigger head

[@OfficialGamesky]

You can adjust the head strap even more because of where it's screwed into the headband. It has 2 other places you can screw it in to

[@Matt-fd9hc]

Night these a few months ago. Super uncomfortable. I like to start headphones for multiple hours at a time. These were never ones that I could wear for any length of time. The wheel isn't good for quickly making adjustments. I'm not a gamer and only bought these for Audio and watching TV and movies. Took them back and after buying the Bose Ultras know I made the right decision to return the Audeze

It's true that the mic doesn't do much for the price, but I don't play online games at all and don't much care about it. However, a mic-less, cheaper alternative would be better for my specific use.

That mic might add a dollar or five to the cost.... It would cost the company more in alternative packaging, branding, and manufacturing flow to offer a micless version

I don't know. I just got these and I've been messing with the EQ, but all of the presets out of the box sound super bad. I was able to fix it to a degree with a custom preset which helped to a degree. Another thing is they're a little too quiet. Don't get me wrong the audio is crisp as hell. But I honestly have to say the astro a50 gen 4s are a lot easier to set up, come with better presets, and are slightly louder granted the audio isn't as clear and the battery life sucks but at least you can plug it in and use it for anything with out really using the software
