Audeze Maxwell for PlayStation

Opinie w internecie tym razem są ok, dźwięk niesamowity - czysty, wyraźny, dynamiczny - po prostu magia, najwyraźniej poprawiono software/firmware bo w moich nie ma żadnego hiss'u, software działa nawet stabilnie, połączenia radio/BT raczej stabilne z dobrym zasięgiem i bez zauważalnego lagu. Wykonanie super, fizyczne przyciski, i baterie kosmos. Teraz koszty tych zalet czyli wady : ciężkie, toporna regulacja (jak to w audiofilach), ogólnie duże, swój pazur pokazują w stereo, emulacja przestrzenna - mocno średnia ALE ich dynamika pozwala w grach 3d bezbłędnie namierzyć dźwięk bez sztuczek z EQ. Podsumowując - z ceną na Thomann - brać bo to zupełnie inne doświadczenie - kupiłbym po raz kolejny choćby i ważyły 1kg a nie 490g.

After all those positive reviews and recommendations, Maxwells turned out to be a huge disappointment for me.
The sound quality is good, tho for me it wasn't anything spectacular when compared to currently owned headphones.

Overall build quality is good, however "power" button has tactile "plastic click" that makes it feel like it's very cheap.

The app for iOS is terrible, with constant connectivity issues, massive lag after applying the EQ settings (c.a 5 seconds), and at some moments keet randomly changing the settings (turning on/off side tone for example).

USB Dongle for PS had constant pops/clicks in audio transmission, dual connection did not work as expected - app prompted to unplug USB in order to be able to change settings...

Comfort-wise, I was not able to adjust the head strap - there were either too low or too high. They grip the head not too tight, so paired with soft pads you have a feeling that they might fall off one a moment (compared to Beyerdynamics that cuts off blood flow around your ear).

For me, they were intended for primary use as a gaming headset, but the overall issues with the comfort and usability were not justifying the purchase, since audio quality was similar to currently owned ones.

The sound is fantastic, to be honest one of the best I've ever heard. Also the battery is magnificent, you can go for like a week without recharing it. Problem is, that's the end of pros... Here's the list for easier reading:

Pros:
- Fantastic sound
- Great battery life (easy a week of playing)
- Bulky build if you like that

Cons:
- Crackling after 20-30 minutes of playing
- Headset started disconnecting after few months of using it (with PS5 it was disconnecting like every 2 minutes sometimes)
- Left earpad started playing quieter out of nowehere (no physical damage)

Be careful with those. For that price, it problems like that shouldn't even be happening.
