Audeze Maxwell 2 ANC Wireless Gaming Headset for Xbox

The Audeze Maxwell 2 ANC for Xbox brings Audeze's high-end planar magnetic headphone technology directly into the Xbox gaming experience.

Massive 90mm planar magnetic drivers combine with Audeze's Fluxor magnets, Uniforce diaphragms, Fazor phase management and SLAM acoustic technology to deliver exceptional clarity, deep controlled bass and the spatial precision competitive and immersive gaming demand.

Add up to 35dB active noise cancellation, ultra-low-latency wireless, 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution audio, advanced head tracking, FILTER AI microphone processing and Dolby Atmos, and Maxwell 2 ANC becomes a serious audio system you happen to wear on your head.

Built for Xbox

The Xbox edition of Maxwell 2 ANC is specifically designed for the Xbox ecosystem and includes a Dolby Access license for Dolby Atmos on compatible Xbox and Windows systems.

Dolby Atmos adds height and three-dimensional spatial information to supported games, helping create a more convincing sense of the environment around you.

Combined with Audeze's planar magnetic drivers, that spatial information can make everything from footsteps and movement to environmental effects easier to locate.

Dolby Atmos Included

The included Dolby Access license is an important advantage of the Xbox version.

Dolby Atmos for Headphones creates a three-dimensional sound field from compatible games and content, allowing effects to appear beside, behind and above the listener.

For cinematic games, it adds immersion.

For competitive gaming, better spatial information can actually be useful.

90mm Audeze Planar Magnetic Drivers

Maxwell 2 ANC uses enormous 90mm planar magnetic transducers instead of the conventional dynamic drivers found in most gaming headsets.

The large surface area and ultra-light diaphragm provide excellent transient response, low distortion and extremely controlled bass.

Explosions hit hard without burying dialogue.

Soundtracks have real scale.

And small positional cues remain easier to identify when the action becomes chaotic.

Fluxor, Uniforce, Fazor & SLAM

This is real Audeze driver technology.

Fluxor Magnet Array precisely controls the planar diaphragm.

Uniforce Diaphragm Technology distributes driving force evenly to reduce distortion.

Fazor Technology manages acoustic wave behavior to improve clarity and imaging.

SLAM Technology improves bass extension and physical impact without sacrificing definition.

These aren't technologies developed specifically to put more features on a gaming headset box.

They're derived from Audeze's experience building high-performance planar magnetic headphones.

Up to 35dB Active Noise Cancellation

Maxwell 2 ANC can reduce surrounding noise by up to:

35dB

That lets you stay focused even when the room around you isn't quiet.

When you need to hear your surroundings, Transparency Mode allows outside sound back into the headset.

Audeze also designed the system to maintain consistent tonal balance whether ANC is engaged or disabled.

24-Bit / 96kHz Wireless Audio

The ultra-low-latency USB-C wireless connection supports high-resolution audio up to:

24-bit / 96kHz

That means wireless gaming doesn't automatically mean compromising audio quality.

USB-C digital and 3.5mm analog connections are also available for additional flexibility.

Advanced Head Tracking

Maxwell 2 ANC incorporates self-calibrating head tracking for supported spatial-audio applications.

The system tracks movement and can help maintain the perceived position of virtual sound sources around the listener.

Combined with Dolby Atmos and the imaging precision of Audeze's planar magnetic drivers, it creates a remarkably sophisticated spatial-audio platform.

FILTER AI Microphone Technology

The detachable hypercardioid boom microphone uses Audeze's FILTER AI-powered noise-removal technology.

Physical microphone design and AI processing work together to reduce unwanted environmental noise while keeping your voice clear.

An internal microphone is also available when you don't want to use the boom.

Bluetooth 5.3

Outside of Xbox, Maxwell 2 ANC functions as a serious premium wireless headphone.

Bluetooth 5.3 supports:

• LDAC
• LE Audio
• LC3
• LC3plus
• Auracast
• AAC
• SBC
• Multipoint

That gives Maxwell 2 ANC excellent flexibility with phones, tablets, computers and other Bluetooth devices.

Dual 1.4-Watt Balanced Amplifiers

Audeze builds serious amplification directly into Maxwell 2 ANC.

The headset uses dual 1.4-watt amplifiers operating in balanced mode, giving the 90mm planar drivers the power and control required for demanding gaming, music and movie playback.

More Than an Xbox Headset

Maxwell 2 ANC makes just as much sense when you're listening to music or watching a movie as it does when you're playing Xbox.

The same planar drivers responsible for positional accuracy in games provide detail, dynamics and low-frequency control with music.

Bluetooth 5.3, LDAC, ANC and USB-C digital audio make it practical as an everyday premium wireless headphone as well.

That's what separates Maxwell 2 ANC from most gaming headsets.
