I use Audeze's MM-500 daily, and I think it is the ideal planar headset if you want fantastic sound quality. But what if you're a gamer? That's where the Maxwell comes into the equation; the headset also has a planar driver, but it has a few additional features that make it a better choice as a gaming headset.
And now, Audeze is launching the Maxwell 2, bringing better audio quality, flexible connectivity, and a few tweaks to the design that make it comfortable to wear. I've used the headset for a few days now, but I'm not ready to do a full review just yet (that's coming next week), but the broad strokes is that the Maxwell 2 does all the same things as its predecessor, while integrating a few oft-requested features, including tighter bass, Bluetooth 5.3 LE connectivity, much better mic, and AuraCast integration.
