The best sound in gaming — just got better. The Audeze Maxwell 2 is an upgraded wireless gaming headset featuring even better audio quality, improved comfort, and exciting new features built around patent-pending SLAM™ technology and advanced microphone processing.
Hear Beyond
Lose yourself in the intricately crafted sonic worlds of your favorite games when you experience Maxwell 2's vividly lifelike audio. Powered by 90mm planar magnetic drivers — 3x larger than typical gaming headsets — for the most powerful, immersive sound available.
Comfort, Reimagined
Built for marathon gaming sessions with a new wide, ventilated head strap and upgraded earpad design with more space to accommodate a wide range of users.
Tactical Precision
Hear every footstep and reload with surgical accuracy from Audeze's most advanced 90mm planar drivers to date. Experience heightened spatial positioning and studio-grade clarity. Supports Dolby Atmos® on Xbox and Tempest 3D on PlayStation.
Great Bass Without Compromise
Powerfully dynamic bass that hits hard, goes low, and never gets muddy — thanks to the Fluxor™ magnet array, Fazor™ phase management, and SLAM™ acoustic management working together.
AI-Powered Microphones
Sound even clearer on chat and stream with new high-bandwidth FILTER™ AI noise removal. Any distracting background noise is silenced instantly at the push of a button. The detachable hypercardioid boom mic pairs with an internal mic for chat, with both physical and AI-based noise reduction.
