Audeze's nieuwste headset is zijn beste aanbod voor gamers tot nu toe, met een veel mooier ontwerp en superieur geluid, in combinatie met een geweldige levensduur van de batterij. Hij is prijzig, maar een geweldige keuze als uw budget zo hoog is.

The Audeze Maxwell is a fantastic-sounding detailed gaming headset that has a wide soundstage, accurate imaging, and long battery life. It is, however, marred by preventable flaws. Apart from being big, bulky, and somewhat of a brain-squeezer, there are some bits about the audio that I’m not quite sold on. And for a headset this pricey, I would have expected the limitations to be minimal.
