- The Audeze Maxwell is a high-tier gaming headset that is available in two varieties for Xbox and PlayStation. In this review, I am checking out the Xbox edition of the Audeze Maxwell. Despite its claims to be an Xbox-focused headset, it still works wonderfully on any platform you could hope for including the PS5 and its Tempest 3D audio system!

I researched for 2 months for my brother and I. I was looking for the best high end gaming for my PS5 and for my brother who games on a Xbox Series X. The easy winner was the Maxwell PS version for myself and the Maxwell Xbox version for my brother. The hard part is finding or waiting after you purchase. Audeze uses select dealers for their products. I noticed ONE of Each came in at a Microcenter and I got them when they hit the floor. WOW. These are truly incredible. The PS version really brings out Sony's 3D Tempest Audio and the Xbox version uses Dolby Atmos due to MS. I would've paid 500 each. Thats how impressive they are. It's not only the best for gaming but stands alone for audiophiles. They are worth it.
To bad you didn't get both xbox version since they work for ps5 too
I thought same thing but why ps version? You cheated yourself knowing what you did. Anyways I was waiting for a new Astro a 50 and now the x came. I love audeze and I have mobius and penrose x. But I think for games I play that are fps and want to hear footsteps I’m happy I waited for the Astro 50 x.
@@Cyb3rRust only as a side note but not officially. Audeze themselves stated that they would not recommend it and various problems can arise. I can only guess why but I could think of the Xbox version not using native protocols and behaves like a PC headsets (which is the case as you need to set it to PC on the dongle. With the PS version you could also use the PC setting but you get a dedicated PS setting too. So various limitations in sound and features may arise up to incompatibility. Audeze will surely know why they do not recommend getting the Xbox version for the PS.
Really appreciate your clear and to the point review of this headset, subbed.
Thanks for the support!
Thanks for the great review!🥂
Thanks for watching!
This is the most honest review of this headset on youtube do not believe those other reviewers who make it seem like its close to other gaming headsets its not the Maxwell is in a league of its own i tried them all
I'm still quite happy with my Steelseries Arctis, but I will definitely keep this in mind when I need a new upgrade.
For sure!
Great review!!! Such a pity in Spain the Xbox version costs 450€ (or 400€ the cheapest) and is very limited to purchase. I've been months researching this headsets vs the Stealth Pro and others similar and the Maxwell are the best for me
Dang, does that come from import fees like I hear from people in Brazil?
@@ArchadesGames literally the only stores that sell it are very local and niche that haven't heard in all my life (not supermarkets or famous online stores, even on Amazon the sellers are small audio stores, not Amazon shipment or selling at all). BTW the only store I found for 400€ just told me that was discontinued for a long time because they don't work with Audeze anymore. And the very very few stores that still sell it, it costs 460€. I don't understand. The headsets came to Spain latter in this year so it's not an old product. And, although on TH-cam there are reviews since last december, the majority or reviews (even on websites) are pretty recent. I read than in France is the same, not stock at all in Europe. I wonder if it's because Sony acquisition or what.
@@ArchadesGames for what I could research from these stores that have this headset discontinued, the original price was the oficial: 350€. But then the price higher got higher. I wonder if that's because very less sales and stock or if it was Audeze decision (because the price is the same everywhere). Chat GPT told me that was in January when it came to Spain, but I don't understand then why everyone is talking about this headset now, in october, and not then. Also, taking that as true, not being available in less than a year SUCKS A LOT.
Yeah, that's mind boggling... It has definitely been out for a bit but they just did another review wave which I got to take part in.
Could you use Razer Blackshark V2’s mic with these?
C&C Red Alert intro nice xD
Wow I need that
You won't be disappointed!
Pretty cool I really love my turtle Beach 700 GEN 2 💫✊
Nice!
How many months you’ve been using the maxwell?They say you need to baby them because of its fragile driver…does yours have wrinkle on the drivers?still thinking if i should buy them…some used for two months have a crackle sound already
3-4 months. No problems on mine.
2 weeks on mine and my driver's got crinkle. It sounds terrible. Why buy a headset you have to baby? If so I suggest not turning them up any higher than 50. How ever I hear it sa compression issue in the ear cups. You might go to readjust yiur headset and it crinkle the diaphram.
could this by any chance work with a PS3? for game audio
A ps3? Brother, use the 500 and get a new console.
For now xbox version can use wireless on ps5 via usb dongle right ?
Correct
@@ArchadesGames Bought these based on your review. Definitely not working with PS5. When set to PC, they do not connect. Change to Xbox, they connect and no audio. Can you please share your firmware versions for headset and dongle? If these are not going to work with PS5, going to send back and likely go with Astro A50 X instead.

1.
Toggle the dongle to usb switch
2.
U need to connect the dongle to usb A port. Not usb C. Using the extension usb cable that includes with it.
.
@@muhammadfirdaus5458 Salam bro. Thanks a million. That worked :)
Since they are licensed for xbox they wont kill the headphones
2nd comment woo-hoo !
Ahh yeah
Nice channel thank you very much. In Fps games you available to hear steps well?
Yeah it's been great for Apex!
@@ArchadesGames Would you say it's the best or could it be better in terms of its audio being well balanced? Does the USB have lower latency?
Can I use it wired and get xbox sound amd then get Bluetooth audio from my PC for music and PC audio? I have the steel series nova pro wireless but I just don't feel they are good. I'm on Xbox
