Too expensive and bulky

- Reviewed in Canada on January 12, 2024Verified PurchaseI came from the senhieser momentum 3s. These guys I’d say are 3-5 times better sounding. They are 200 grams heavier than my old headset but are comfier to wear. I do feel the additional weight after ~6 hours of use. But I’m sure will go away as I use this daily and my neck gets used to it. I love the features. The range is GREAT I go anywhere in my house with perfect connectivity. I did have to move the dongle to a port on a less restricted port ( back to from port ). I haven’t had to charge them yet so I guess the battery is great !! Music sounds incredible, I take the microphone off when I listen in bed but put on for gaming. I paid 450$ cad all in all for this. I believe this product is extremely fairly priced for what you get. They take a little bit to get used to but once you do they are quite a pleasure. I have no issue believing these will last for a long time. There are also many updates to software which is nice to see. There was a French review that when I translated it called headsets “helmets” but I can’t help but think of these as my helmet hetset. There huge. But comfortable, they really hide it in the design. I’m impressed and am happy audeze made a high quality headset with a fair price. I believe this is the new gold standard for wireless music/gaming headsets
- Reviewed in Canada on August 4, 2023Verified PurchaseI love this headset! Audio quality their wireless blows me away everytime I use it. Battery life is incredible (I've only had to charge it once since my purchase in early June). Though heavy I can wear this for hours without any issues (very well engineered). Microphone feedback from friends was a notable positive. Side tone function is great for certain scenarios and can be quite useful. Update to the headset and dongle was easy through my PC. Use between PC and PS5 is excellent with no compatibility issues. I use it for gaming, music, movies, and the occasional live concert viewing and exceeds at everything above and beyond in my opinion.
The only slight negative is the software could use some updates but it is certainly not a deal breaker and does what it needs to.
Hands down the best wireless headset I've used and now own. Very happy with it and highly recommend!
- Reviewed in Canada on October 21, 2023Verified Purchaseaudio was awesome made of aluminum felt strong and reliable.... made it 4 months before the sound cut out in the right ear... now I begin the RMA process... trash dont waste your money
- Reviewed in Canada on May 31, 2025Verified PurchaseAfter some time using this Headset....here is what I found on the new Audeze Maxwell.
1: Sound Output is too low ONLY if you use the Audeze HQ pre-set Sound Profiles.
The Fix is to run Audeze HQ set to Audeze.... and run Dolby Atmos on Custom Preset 1, Sound Virtualizer = On, Volume Leveler = On. In the Custom 1 Mixer Setting you raise each of the 10 Sliders up 1 or 2 ticks only. Then you WILL finally get some real Volume from this Headset. For me the Audeze Maxwell came Alive! I keep mine pinned Equal across all 10. Don`t over do it fyi. ;p A Db or 2 increase for all 10 Sliders goes a long way.
2: Definately swap in a Quality Mic for Voice Com!
My Fix was to swap the included Maxwell Mic out with the Mic from my old HyperX Cloud Orbit S, resulting in an immediate improvement in sound quality.
3: Wireless Quality is very nice.
4: The Battery Usage on the Maxwell seems Outstanding at 1st! But so far I am getting nowhere near 80 hours of usage on 1 full Charge. I think maybe I am getting 50 Hours or so on a charge.
5: Build Quality seems VERY robust This Headset still looks brand new out of the Box after a fair amount of use.
I have given the Audeze Maxwell a Score of 5 Stars........ based upon my using the Dolby Atmos App along WITH Audeze HQ. Build Quality wise, I can`t see how the Headset could fail mechanically. The Material used still feels and looks near bullet proof.
If this Headset ever needs replacing, I buy another in a Heart beat. ;p
- Reviewed in Canada on May 28, 2024Verified PurchaseI love the sound signature! It's an amazing headphone for gaming. It's got it's foot in the door for Audiophile level sound. I own the Audeze LCD-X .. so I am aware of how heavy Audeze likes to make their headphones. Lets skip the pros.. straight to the Cons. BTW all firmware were updated, for dongle and headphone.
Cons:
1. Too heavy for long gaming sessions. I tend to game roughly 2-8hrs.. and just 2hrs in and it's too much.
2. It gets hot! Even got some after market pads that are supposed to be cooling from Wicked Cushions.. but that made the headset even heavier!! and it still heated up anyways..
3. At times the sound will pop when using. Just a loud POP.. feels like something may break in the driver.
4. Other times the sound does this weird electronic warble.. ruins the experience while listening to music.. or watching streams / Youtube. I know it's the headphone, because it's easily verifiable by replaying the specific part of the song or movie.
5. When on the USB dongle in wireless mode, there is a 1-2 second delay when the next song plays.. so you miss 1-2 seconds of the beginning of the song. It does that when skipping through music / streams / beginning of Youtube videos.. etc. Once again.. easily verifiable.
6. When on the USB dongle.. there are some days it will just act up.. and the dongle will keep reconnecting.. like in the middle of playback.. the bluetooth will just drop.. and reconnect "USB dongle connected" over and over. Very frustrating.
I love the closed wireless part of it, the long battery life.. the amazing sound quality.. however.. my return window was closing, and sadly there are way too many cons, and they cost a decent amount. So I have to return them.. and yes.. I miss them already. Would definitely buy again if there is a 2nd version of these headphones.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ağır ama detay seviyesi çok yüksek
Verified PurchaseBoyun fıtığı garantili, ağırlık merkezi de kulaklar olduğundan kafanızı sallama hatta öne fazla ve hızlıca eğme ihtimaliniz pek yok. Buna karşılık kablosuz olup bu kadar hızlı tepki süresi ve mikro detay verebilen bir kulaklık yok. Müzikte ve oyunda farkı ciddi, Logitech, Steelseries, Asus, Razer filan bunun yanında çocuk oyuncağı kalıyor(abartmıyorum, bununla dinledikten sonra başka oyun kulaklığına dönemezsiniz). Yine de hafif bir kulaklık alternatifi de şart, belki kablolu, bununla bir gün geçirirseniz ölürsünüz çünkü.
- PurchaserReviewed in Australia on June 5, 2025
2.0 out of 5 stars Audio crackling and popping.
Verified PurchaseConstant popping and crackling when listening to quiet audio, or if the audio oscillates between sound and no sound (for example, sound effects in any application).
Otherwise the audio battery life, construction, ergonomics etc are great.

5.0 out of 5 stars As someone who was a gamer but was more interested in the the 'pure sound design'
Verified PurchaseAs someone who was a gamer but was more interested in the the 'pure sound design' as an ex audio producer, please just buy them. Don't buy these if you're looking to git gud on COD, they cost a lot for that (although I assume they sound great doing that). As someone who mixes down mixes it's imperative to have as flat or natural sound design from your headphones as possible and these provide that. On the flipside, if you want to get your boogy on these are amazing just to listen to music with, they react very well to EQ so you can customise how deep you want your bass, mids and highs.
