I recently spent some time with the Audeze Maxwell, and I have to say the sound from the planar magnetic drivers is truly something you need to experience to believe. The clarity, detail, and depth of the audio are unlike anything I’ve heard in a conventional headphone — every note feels precise, with a spacious soundstage and incredibly natural tone. Music comes alive in a way that makes listening immersive and utterly engaging. That said, the headset is quite heavy, and over longer sessions it can become fatiguing. Because of that, I don’t use it as much as I’d like, despite how phenomenal it sounds. The build is excellent and feels premium, but the weight ultimately limits how practical it is for everyday listening. In short, the Audeze Maxwell delivers an extraordinary audio experience, and for anyone who wants to hear planar magnetic drivers at their best, it’s worth trying — just be aware that it’s not the most comfortable option for extended use.

Heavy headset. Sounds way better than the nova pros but i ended up giving these away. I rather deal with lesser audio quality than uncomfortability. These are really heavy and had to return wicked cushions bc it made it worse, which is a first. If Audeze/ sony makes a lighter pair with similar audio quality, ill be ordering but for now i cant. Also cant ignore the widespread quality control across users with those delicate planar drivers

Everything was working great when I got it. After a week of use I decided to update the dongle and headset. It worked good that same day. The following day however the dongle wouldn't connect to the headset. I tried to hook it up to 2 other pc and none would connect to the usb dongle. The dongle did respond with lights to go into pairing but would not connect to headset. The bluetooth still worked but if I am gonna spend this much money I would like everything to work. I decided to return this item.
