Audeze Maxwell | 90mm planar magnetic drivers | 10 Hz to 50,000 Hz | Wireless | $299.99$269.99 at Amazon (save $30) Well, here it is.
The ultimate in wireless audiophile gaming headsets, the Audeze Maxwell makes use of a set of planar magnetic drivers to deliver audio quality that makes reviewers gush the world over.
It's a bit heavy, and the software isn't great, but otherwise this is a symphony of gaming headset luxury—as we found in our 93% review. Price check: Best Buy $299.99 Before I joined the team at PC Gamer, I had my own little hardware blog.
Being a small fish in a big pond, it was difficult for me to get hardware samples to review, so I used to borrow (steal) recent hardware purchases off of friends for a few days to review—before reluctantly handing them back.
And never was I more reluctant to give back an object than this set of gaming cans. The Audeze Maxwell is quite simply the best-sounding wireless gaming headset I've ever heard, and every time I see one on offer, something deep in my heart leaps in response.
