I've been gaming with the Audeze Maxwell solidly for over a year and there is no better-sounding gaming headset deal I could recommend

There's no getting away from it, $269 is still an awful lot of money to spend on a PC gaming headset, but the Maxwell delivers audiophile planar magnetic drivers, and that means you're getting wireless sound that standard PC gaming headsets cannot match.
