    Hey Frank, I am about to embark on the process of a complete rebuild of my setup. While I have most things figured out, there's a couple things that I have yet to decide on the direction of and would love to see a Room Tour Project geared towards audiophiles and audiophile setups, ie, headphones/cans, amps and dacs as well as studio monitors.

    My biggest personal disappointment was the lack of an inline chat/game mixer (except for maybe the last headset...I couldnt tell). This is a requirement for any headset I own. With how inconsistent teammate's mic volumes can be, this feature is by far my favorite. It's annoying having to change it in game every couple matches to get the mix I want.

    I love my Virtuoso Pros. The sound is great and definitely has that extra bass which I like. My only complaints are I wish the padding on the ear cups was more comfortable (hoping for aftermarket options) and if they were more over ear than on ear. Also the braided cable can make noise with friction. Other than that I love everything about them.

    Odds on doing a strictly "Top value for price" series as well where you go over products that might not be the best but offer outstanding quality for their price segment. For some products, you would have mentioned options in the "best" videos already (the Hyper X Cloud III in this one, for example), but I don't mind them being repeated. I think it would be interesting for a lot of people who are looking for decent quality without being willing to go the step into the "pro-level" segment due to price and are basically looking for stuff that offers "upper class performance for a middle class price". Great output today, I dig it.

    @@M8YonXBL Although I'm not the original commenter I did just get them in today and I'll give you my first thoughts on them. I will first say that I am not a gamer. I don't play games and I didn't buy the Maxwells because I wanted a gaming headset, I bought them because they're planar magnetics, were 100 USD cheaper than the Edifiers, and were bluetooth (although I could've gotten the MM100s which were also planar magnetics but they're not bluetooth so I decided not to). And Jesus Christ these are really some of the best headphones in the world right now. I thought I'd be at least a little disappointed because I knew I definitely overhyped myself but even after doing that I still found them to have exceeded my expectations on what a headphone could sound like. They are crystal clear audio-wise and have some of the greatest sound-staging and imaging I've ever seen. I had decided to compare them with all of my other headphones which includes things like a beater pair of turtle beaches, Sony XM4s, and even a beater Beyerdynamic. The only way I can describe the result was that it was like seeing Hulk Hogan curbstomp a 5 year old girl. It was just ridiculous how good these things sounded. In fact, the only thing I found that offered any kind of fair comparison to the Maxwells were my Vinyl-Record set up which includes a 600 USD monitor, 400 USD amp, and 500 USD player. The fact that the only thing that beat the Maxwells in my household was a 1500 USD audio set up should be a testament to the sheer quality that these things provide. The only, ONLY, thing that I dislike about these is how annoying they can be to deal with sometimes. They'll have a tendency to create audio artifacts when out of your ear and will also sometimes just stop playing audio if you connect multiple bluetooth devices to them which is really easy to do so. But as long as you use the wireless dongle thingy or you double check your devices to make sure that they aren't connected to them no problems will be found. If you're thinking of buying these I strongly advise you do so. These are probably one of the easiest and cheapest way to get into proper audiophile grade stuff without overly breaking the bank

When it comes to connecting, the cloud 3 connection is insane out of the 7 wireless headsets iv tried, it's instant even if you reboot your PC.

    i have the razer kraken ultimate headset and after the update my headset is completely screwed. My audio comes and goes. For some games it’ll say “No sound driver” and for others if i switch in and out of tabs the headset just breaks and takes away my audio. Reinstalling razer, my pc, and troubleshooting don’t do anything. I’m bummed bc the headset was pretty pricey at the time i bought it. The mic quality used to be good as well and now it sucks. I don’t recommend purchasing razer headsets… atleast now. Razer won’t address the issue and they keep blaming their buyers by saying it’s our pcs problem and saying “make sure it’s set as your audio device.” They are 0 help and investing in any razer product is a waste of money.

    Wish there was mentioning on soundstage performance which is very important in competitive games or any audiophile headphones gamers like, such as Sennheiser 58x or the new 660s2. Open back is king here, and almost none of the mentioned here had this. Just bad mics to make them “gaming” headphones. And a good chunk of people paying a few hundred on headphones will likely buy a quality standalone mic for $50-100.

The mic is brilliant though, on par with the razer i would say so might try to salvage it.

    I have the hyperx cloud alpha wireless and it's one of the best sounding headsets I've used. I'm a stickler for good sound though so I've been looking for a more premium wireless option and I think I'm gonna go with the maxwell. I'd have it already if it went on sale at all during black Friday but it seems like audeze is having supply issues since the maxwell is on backorder until January.

    Maxwell owner here. the drawback? It is a risky headset. Its driver is very sensitive that has a relatively higher chance to break if you messed up some "pressure" on the earcups. The foil can wrinkle and it most likely would affect the audio. Mine had some wrinkle and stopped working on 1 side after 3 months, replaced with warranty. The new one does not have any wrinkle at start.. but now has very small ones. I can hear some crackling sound (with or without audios playing in the headset) when moving my head. Hopefully it does not break like my first one. Some says that one of the cause of the wrinkle is when the earcup is pressed in your head, creating changes in pressure. or even when removing the headset using one hand which causes some pressure on the other side. something like that. Another one, is that for gaming, footsteps or sound stage is not the best. it is great, but not on top unlike other gaming headsets. Sound quality is the best though
