    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    Volume limiter in the Audeze HQ PC application is what I turned off to reach max sidetone volume. For reference, I have overall volume set around 60% in Windows. That's plenty loud for me, I suspect any higher and I could possibly get hearing damage. I used to have absolutely zero concern...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    I've been using this headset (Xbox version) for a couple of days now and this is one of those rare times where my own internal hype and excitement was matched by the performance of the product. I absolutely LOVE getting new headphones/earphones and this was my first experience with planar...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    I think it's safe to say I'll never preorder something from Audeze again with how poor the communication has been about the Maxwell X. At minimum, they could announce a date of when they'll provide a progress update - even if no progress was made at all with Microsoft. If they get shipped...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    I feel dumb asking this question, but how strong is the sidetone compared to the GSP 670s? Already, it sounds (from reviews) objectively better from an audio standpoint. The mic noise cancelling as well sounds amazing. I would love to see an A/B test vs. Nvidia Broadcast. Not going to ask when...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    Agreed, and this is why I'm not really that upset. I've worked with product launches before (admittedly, not headphones) and you get ONE chance to make a good impression with the consumer. If the final product actually lives up to the hype/marketing, these delays will be quickly forgotten.

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    If the Xbox certification takes months, why was that not communicated when pre-orders were first announced? I'm honestly not worried about the delay (I have GSP 670's which still work great), but I'm curious.

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    @xsankar - do you work for Audeze or something? If so I'm curious - will there be adjustable sidetone for the Maxwell? I have a speech impediment (I stutter), and I can usually control my stutter well if I hear my voice clearly in real time. Usually it's the opposite for people who stutter, but...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    I preordered these headphones the day they came out. I've never experienced planar headphones, but I'm extremely curious about the sound quality. My EPOS GSP 670s no longer hold a charge, and they need to be replaced. I will readily admit I'm a basshead but I also prize detail and accuracy in...

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    When am I going to get this amp? It shipped on the 15th and I haven't heard anything since. 12 business days (per the website) hits tomorrow. I have a trip coming up, and I was really hoping I'd have the amp by now.

    I did a bit more reading, and it looks like the new version of the BoomPro Mic will be improved over the VTF version.   I wonder what changes will have been made.

    V-MODA M-100: Discussion/Feedback, Reviews, Pics, etc.

    Just got my V-MODA M-100 from Amazon, and for the once, the hype actually lived up. The sound is AMAZING. The first song I played through them was A Perfect Circle's The Package, and I can't really describe just how good the song sounded. Every other headphone I've tried always chokes up on the...
