Wearing style

Description

The Audeze Maxwell 2 takes everything that made the original Maxwell a standout and pushes it further. With upgraded planar magnetic drivers, improved comfort, smarter microphone processing, and new customization options, Maxwell 2 delivers reference-level audio performance in a wireless gaming headset built for serious play.

Gaming, Uncompromised

Maxwell 2 is designed for players who want top-tier audio without sacrificing wireless convenience. The new 90mm planar magnetic drivers deliver massive scale, pinpoint imaging, and studio-grade clarity that makes footsteps, reloads, and environmental cues feel lifelike and precise.

Planar Magnetic Power

At the heart of Maxwell 2 are Audeze’s largest gaming planar drivers ever. The 90mm transducers use Fluxor magnet arrays, Fazor phase management, Uniforce diaphragms, and SLAM acoustic tuning to produce deep, controlled bass, clean mids, and extended treble without distortion or fatigue.

Ultra Low Latency Wireless

Maxwell 2 delivers lag-free, high resolution wireless audio up to 24-bit/96kHz using its USB-C wireless dongle. Whether you are gaming competitively or streaming media, audio stays perfectly in sync with what you see on screen.

Comfort, Reimagined

Built for long sessions, Maxwell 2 features a redesigned wide ventilated head strap and upgraded ear pads with more internal space. The result is better weight distribution, improved airflow, and all-day comfort for a wider range of head shapes and sizes.

AI Powered Microphones

Advanced FILTER AI noise removal ensures your voice stays clear and natural on chat and stream. Background noise is intelligently removed at the push of a button, while the detachable hypercardioid boom mic delivers focused voice pickup when precision matters most.

Versatile Connectivity

Maxwell 2 works seamlessly across platforms with USB-C wireless, USB-C wired audio, Bluetooth, and 3.5mm analog support. Bluetooth includes support for Auracast, LE Audio, LDAC, AAC, and multipoint, making it easy to switch between gaming, music, and calls.

The New Audeze App

A completely redesigned Audeze app gives you fast access to EQ, mic controls, sidetone, and device settings. Available on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, the app offers a clean, modern interface built for quick adjustments.

ReSkin Customization

Maxwell 2 introduces the new ReSkin system, allowing you to swap magnetic side plates to customize the look of your headset. Limited edition designs and collaborations are planned, with more options coming soon.
