Buying call

Maxwell 2 keeps Audeze's 90mm planar magnetic drivers, which give wireless gaming audio unusual detail and low distortion, and tightens the comfort, mic and app. It's a serious headset for players who also care about music. It's still heavy, and it doesn't stream 2.4GHz and Bluetooth audio at the same time.
