Just saw this vid, and I just ordered this product to see if it helps with the weight of the Maxwells. Really don’t wanna change headsets again, but I will for comfort.
Any EU option? Absolutely hated my Maxwells but bought them again with a new plus leather band. Now they're not uncomfortable at all. But this band looks nice and sleek.
I agree I can’t use heavy headsets either… but you won’t know till you’ve tried some. Now all mine have to at least emphasize that they are light so wireless is usually out the question. Merry Christmas Techne! 🎄
I do have hair but I havn't had any problems with the maxwells with weight or hot ears since I've gotten them with multiple sessions being several hours. I might grab that headband just to have an extra and for the soft material and wider headband but in all It wouldn't be very necessary for me as they are fine in their stock configuration but I'm also used to a50s which are already quite heavy.
I'm really glad you're sticking to your guns on this. So many reviews list these on the top. I tried to use them for 2 weeks. Unbearable. If I just cared about great sound I would bungy cord speakers to my head. I will take the comfort of steelseries 7x if I want wireless and Bluetooth. Otherwise the pc38x sound better and are comfortable. There is always give and take but you need to be able to wear them.
Oh i definitely agree i have them but i went back to razor black shark v2 pro cause they so much lighter. I can't even use the Maxwell's anymore they so heavy and give me headaches. Now they just sitting here catching dust.
Be interesting to see how they last over time. I love my maxwells and am rather interested in this product. Hopefully shipping to new zealand is an option. Also love you're work techne, was thanks to you're review i got them in the 1st place 👌
i'd love to have a cushion with no freeze. the cold waers off in about 5 mins. this gel foam is really dense and heavy - can't prove it bur i bet it even makes them warmer after some longer time on my head. it is impossible to find cushions with no freeze since EVERY company just copies WC. this is just sad. will absoluty buy the rubber headband. thanks for the video.
I wasn't a fan of the maxwell. I sent it back. I went with the Corsair virtuoso max. It's a heavy headset as well and hurts my head after like an hour, but the build quality, noise canceling, and the sound quality is amazing!! Is this something someone could make for that?
Anyone got recommendations for right ear pain with these? I already the headband and wicked cushions ear pads but my right ear gets sore wearing these for just a few hours
IDK, my Maxwells are WAY more comfortable than my Astro A50 Gen 5s. Not even close. Maxwells are comfier no question. I also had the Arctic Nova Pro Wireless, Maxwells are heavier but nothing major it seems.
nah. it's too heavy stock. let alone with wc pads. 3d printed is fine. Dekoni lambskin are pretty good pads that are decent weight. That said, unfortunately I don't like the seal on maxwells. It's too much for me and I hear my own heartbeat and stuff. I will wait for new version
Omg, I've been watching you for a while now, such an honor that you enjoyed my product!

@@mbarrios386 Same!
Any holiday promo codes? I own the Maxwell, and am interested in trying your product.
Thank u as well. Love what your doing 🤝
Just got mine... I use the maxwell for 6 hours straight last night holly crap what a difference I felt 0 pressure on top of my head .
I appreciate your honest reviews bro, you have very professional and objective feedback on a vast gamma of peripherals. Keep it up!
Bought them now because of you. Thanks for honest review🎉
Haha. You took my advise. Good on ya Techne
Ehhh man, I wanted to give u credit in the video. But didn’t know if you would be down for that.
All in all, thanks for the recommendation! 👊
@ having my comment displayed in Stars Wars into text was thanks enough. Just glad it didn’t disappoint 🤘
I never thought they were heavy but I do agree about the headband issue. That was the only reason why I stopped using them
Any EU option?

They ship internationally!
@@listener-reviews Yeah, you are going to pay more for the shipment+taxes that the product itself, that's why he asked for an EU option.
I really like my Maxwells but you're right they hurt the top of my head after not even an hour of playing and I have hair. Lots of it
I agree I can’t use heavy headsets either… but you won’t know till you’ve tried some. Now all mine have to at least emphasize that they are light so wireless is usually out the question.
Merry Christmas Techne! 🎄
I'll give these a try, I still love the Maxwell's, Just wish they were a bit lighter.
Same here.
As someone who is bald, huge W. need to get this for my maxwells
My big head and the maxwells are too much. Got to give this a try. Thanks for the video.
I personally have absolutely no issue with this headset. No pressure points. Not heavy. Etc

When 2025 comes are you going to do a full re review of the audeze Maxwell (are they worth it in 2025 and how your sound adjusted) video?

Just ordered one!
I'd love it if Wicked made a lighter earpad. They're cozy but man they're so stinkin' heavy!
@@CheezeN7 I spoke with them about that 👍
Now this set or the A50 Gen 5???
I need to know this too, which is better??
No I totally agree, I’ve switched to earbuds because I got sick of wearing headphones all the time
Inzone Buds!

Audeze definitely needs to make a lightweight version of the maxwells, the weight is the only thing stopping me from trying them
💯
I have the Maxwell. They sound incredible but the weight is blah! Just got this Capra Audio band and not really noticing much difference.
Maxwells are goated
I give it about 6 hours before that headband is sold out.... I bought one :D
I believe he 3D prints them, so they shouldn’t sell out.
🤘🏿

Suggest to Audeze Maxwell company, Make a lighter version of your products and start the obsession with lower weight like it happened with mice.
I'm never leaving the atlas air not ever
Chicken neck… 😂😂😂
Just a joke, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Including yourself.
Awesome video as always
First
leatherette nuggets off amazon stick to the silicone quite nicely and have held up well. like 20 bucks for 4 nugz black and brown leather
