Our take on the Audeze Maxwell 2 ANC Wireless Gaming Headset

The Audeze Maxwell 2 ANC is a wireless gaming headset built around planar magnetic drivers, with active noise cancelling and USB-C connectivity, aimed at PS5 players who want high-fidelity sound. It follows the original Maxwell, adding ANC and a refined design. Its planar drivers give it detail and bass control that typical dynamic-driver gaming headsets struggle to match, but it is heavier and bulkier than most rivals. It suits players who care more about audio quality than about a light, low-profile fit.

Questions and answers

Is the Maxwell 2 ANC worth it over the original Maxwell?
If you play in a noisy room or share space, the ANC is the main reason to choose it. Otherwise the original Maxwell offers the same planar sound for less weight and complexity.
How does it compare with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless?
The Maxwell 2 ANC leans on planar drivers for richer music and game audio, while the Nova Pro Wireless offers a hot-swappable battery system and a lighter fit. Choose the Audeze for sound, the SteelSeries for convenience.
Does the noise cancelling work in party chat?
ANC reduces background noise around you, and the microphone is tuned to keep your voice clear. It does not remove your own voice from what teammates hear.
Can I use it with PC and PS5?
Yes. It connects wirelessly over USB-C and works with PS5 and PC, and the USB-C connection also covers charging.
Is the battery replaceable?
The Maxwell line uses a replaceable battery design, so you can swap it rather than retire the headset when it wears out.
What is in the box?
Expect the headset, a USB-C wireless dongle, a USB-C charging cable and a carry pouch. Check the listing for the exact bundle.
