Audeze Maxwell 2 Wireless Gaming Headset, Black

The Audeze Maxwell 2 Wireless Gaming Headset for PlayStation – Black is a closed-back, over-ear wireless headset for competitive gaming, music, streaming, and voice communication. Its 90 mm planar magnetic drivers use neodymium N50 magnets rather than a conventional dynamic-driver design. The rated headphone response spans 10 Hz to 50,000 Hz. Stereo reproduction handles game audio alongside music and spoken content. For gaming, the included USB-C dongle provides a low-latency 2.4 GHz RF link. This wireless route avoids relying on Bluetooth for the primary console connection.

The 560 g headband format is substantial, which is relevant when considering extended sessions. Its detachable hypercardioid boom microphone uses AI-based noise cancellation to reduce unwanted background sound during chat and calls. A control on the headset mutes the microphone, while buttons and a wheel manage volume and other functions. Mobile operating system support covers iOS and Android devices. PlayStation, PC, and Mac compatibility covers the main gaming and desktop platforms listed for the headset. USB-C audio and a 3.5 mm analogue connection provide wired listening options.
