Hey thank you for posting this, would you be able to tell me why the speed was an issue? Did it seem like frames or voice speed issue? I would like to correct this going forward.
@_TeaRex_Gaming The info of the video was really good. The delivery was okay. The tone and sentence structure was sound, but the speed of which everything was given was slow. Remember that headsets aren't exactly exciting. We're all excited to get a new headset, but to watch a review on them isn't. We want the info but don't want to watch the video forever to get it. Just speak quicker. (:
I returned the Maxwell. Doesn’t stay connected, and had a crackling noise every once in a while. Sometimes wouldn’t connect right away. They do sound great, but these issues made me return them. Got the A50x, no issues with disconnects, turns on right away, and they sound pretty good. Not Maxwell good. But I couldn’t be happier.
Sorry to hear that about the issues with the Audeze Maxwell. Unfortunately it happens sometimes even with good quality control. Good to hear the A50x aren't giving you trouble.
Im considering purchasing the wasabi green maxwells with the wicked cushions and a headset case so my kids wont break them. Its quite expensive but they seem to be the best built bc i hate plastics at a 300 price point. I hope there are good for such an expensive purchase
@@user-bf1um1tp5t Personally they are a great headset to buy at that price point and the wicked cushion ear cups make them more comfortable and enhance the audio experience. I’ve owned Maxwell’s for a while and definitely recommend trying them out to anyone considering them, Audeze offers a 30 day return period from delivery in the States. Get a really good case for them especially if you’re able to get the wasabi green edition, they’ll last a while.
Thank you sir I have finally retired my A50’s after like 4-5 years of use I believe my base station has gave up on me….. my audio Output doesn’t light up on the base and I can’t hear the voice chat I only hear the game ……. I think ima go with the Maxwells …….
@@merkshotit3305 They served you well and that’s great to hear they lasted for that timeframe. Hope you love the maxwells for your gaming, the wait for Audeze to ship is hard but they are worth it!
These new A50X just came out in January. They are much better than the old ones as they use normal wall outlet power and HDMI for game audio coming from consoles.
I have both and the Audeze is better for overall sound quality. You hear every footstep as well as good separation. The A50’s are more comfortable though.
@@renardfields2975 I do agree with this Audeze you get used to the weight and fit but A50 is more comfortable (in my case using the wicked cushion ear cups)
@@htl4life1 any games in particular? Personally Maxwell would be my choice for most games. Astro might have specific tunes available for certain games that may make it better in certain circumstances.
@_TeaRex_Gaming just warzone I liked the a50 but I noticed you said maxwell was better for that I have both but I need to return 1. Idk if I had some settings off
@@htl4life1 personally I’ve enjoyed the Maxwell better for that game. Ensure your headset and dongle are updated and try some of the eq settings here for warzone specifically. www.audeze.com/pages/maxwell-eq-presets
Yes Audeze has one specific for the Xbox/PC and then another for PS5/PC. For Astro A50x I did not do a custom EQ with my own settings, I used the ones on the app and the community ones for Astro as well, quite a wide variety there to try out.
@@_TeaRex_Gaming I purchased mine yesterday. I’m enjoying the sound as much better if you have a link so I can get some good EQ settings for FPS game. I’ll be very happy.
@@hp1799 the only ones I tried before are at Audeze’s website and GadgetryTech helped make them, try the Warzone one. www.audeze.com/pages/maxwell-eq-presets
Maxwell has better noise isolation from background noises than A50x. This can drown out speech quality on the A50x causing some speech to not get captured and have small breaks during recording at times. That's my experience with it through usage of both headphones.
@@_TeaRex_Gaming i get what you are saying but the base sound quality with no sort of noise gate imo is best with the astros they just sound so real and with all other wireless headsets its not as good. And for the noise isolation yes the ones in the Logitech software are garbage but you can use krisp or other softwares for the noise isolation. Im saying all this from videos i saw, but im still doing more research as i would be upgrading from the black shark v2 pro which i bought for the mic alone.
@@xcasder7885 Thank you for the detailed insight, I will keep those softwares and the noise gate comment In mind for a future video when testing other headsets with the A50x and Audeze regarding the mic quality and the features associated.
@robrahb5283 as someone that travels a lot i dont want to have two things to carry around, and since im getting value with great audio and microphone its good enough for me. 380$ headset is better than having a 200 $ mic and a 180$ headset imo.
@_TeaRex_Gaming the problem is I can't buy the audeze maxwell here in Aus. Would have to buy from America and ship. I think the astro a50x will be a good choice for me anyway.
Play at 1.25 playback speed. Your welcome.
Good video!

@@capablanc Appreciate your comment! It's no worries, I can try to have more concise main points but also continue the pace.
Thanks for the video that's exactly what I was looking for. A quick honest comparison between the two devices their sound, mic and buildquality
