Audeze’s Maxwell Gaming Headset Shines in Limited Edition “Wasabi” Green
Sleek and stylish, Audeze introduces an eye-catching addition to their Maxwell gaming headset line with the limited-edition “Wasabi” variant, priced at $329. Designed primarily for Xbox and PC, this new colorway is hard to miss with its stunning iridescent green hue.
Regarded as one of the top-tier gaming headsets available today, the Audeze Maxwell wireless headset series is lauded for its exceptional sound quality, derived from the use of 90mm planar magnetic drivers—a technology frequently favored by audiophiles. The original Maxwell model received five-star accolades, cementing its status in the gaming world towards the end of 2023.
The limited-edition Wasabi variant not only captivates with its visual appeal but also maintains the high-performance standards set by its predecessors. This model is compatible with Xbox and PC, and comes equipped with a Dolby Atmos headphones license, seamlessly enhancing the gaming audio experience on Xbox Series X/S and Windows platforms. Furthermore, it features Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, allowing users to pair the headset with other devices, like mobile phones, for versatile use.
As with other models in the range, this high-end, premium over-ear headset delivers impeccable wireless audio quality. Thanks to LDAC support, users can enjoy near lossless playback for an immersive experience. The advanced proprietary planar magnetic drivers, boasting various patented technologies, ensure the headset supports 24-bit / 96kHz high-resolution audio.
Communication during gaming sessions is facilitated by a detachable boom microphone that meets professional standards. Equipped with Filter AI noise-reducing technology, it guarantees that your voice is transmitted with clarity and precision. Meanwhile, gamers will appreciate the extensive battery life offered—over 80 hours of uninterrupted play on a single charge. Just 20 minutes of charging will grant you enough power for a full day of gaming.
The limited-edition Audeze Maxwell Wasabi wireless gaming headset is available from October 22, 2024, in restricted quantities via Audeze’s official website. While the US pricing is set at $329, UK pricing remains unconfirmed, although it’s safe to anticipate it will be comparable to the standard Xbox-compatible version, currently retailing at £349.
PlayStation 5 users are not left out either, as they can enjoy the premium audio features of the Maxwell range with their dedicated version, priced around £319 in the UK.
This release underscores Audeze’s commitment to blending exceptional acoustics with striking design, offering gamers a headset that does more than just deliver sound—it makes a statement.
