A few changes to mine now:- HD660s2 when at home stationery Grado GW100x when I need to be mobile and leaking sound isn't an issue Airpods Pro 2 when mobile and sound leaking is an issue Astro A50x when wanting gaming convenience Tygr 300r or HD560s when I'm gaming and don;t mind being wired up...

I like my Maxwells but don't think they excel at FPS games - find other headphones I have (mainly open backed) better for that (actually preferred an Eq'd Turtle beach Stealth Pro for FPS games). When I do use these, I find the Competition and Footstep eqs to affect the overall sound quality too...

lol - I'm spending the weekend making absolutely sure they aren't for me haha. I don't think they are particularly fragile - same with the Penrose before. But then I'm not in the habit of throwing my stuff around like some gamers ;) Mine are the Ultra Violet ones so I may just keep them to...

I'm just not going to use them - I really just don't like closed back headphones it seems. Having used the Tygr, Hd560 and now Hd660s2 with fps games, I just can't go back to the less spacious sound of the Maxwell. Plus, no matter how much I eq them, I can't get them how I want to sound for...

HD660s2 received today. First impressions are pleasing! Audeze Maxwell and likely HD560s to be sold now. Find the HD660s2 decent for gaming alongside my Tygr 300r also so no need for tow many sets :p

Be interested to hear how you find them :)

Using them for PS5 gaming via a Schiit Hel+ now :)

Hard to say really as I'm not sure I had the equipment to get the best from the T1.2. The Tygr beat out the 560s and my Maxwell for FPS by some margin to my ears. Much better soundstage and I find the directional audio much clearer to follow with the Tygr, even in hectic FPS moments. I'd like...

Now gone back to using Tygr 300r on PS5 with the addition of the Schiit Hel+. Seems to brig the Tygr to a different level. So much so, I'm now selling my 560s and DT990 :)

Audeze Maxwell (just got the Ultraviolet version) is a great all rounder (for music as well as gaming). Also have the Beyer MMX200 which have impressed me (not as good as the Maxwell for music but enjoy them for fps gaming while the Maxwell win for SP/immersive gaming). :)

You won't need to work very hard with the PS5 - switch the Maxwell dongle to PC mode, plug in using the adapter in the Maxwell box - then enjoy. My Xbox Maxwell had no issues whatsoever with PS5 - max Volume was still far beyond my tolerance. Of course, something could change but for now at...

Hard to be 100% sure on Volume but I'll take back my earlier thoughts - the 5k gets to ear bleeding volume levels on the PS5 - I'm not sure there's anything in it between the 5k and the G6. Quick switch back to PC and I really don't hear any difference in max volume between that and PS5 - I...

Thanks - fortunately I have one of those adapters here from when I had a set of AKG K702 and a Vmoda Boom mic.

Yea - I missed the override option to start with and was about to box it back up lol I'll have a closer listen/look later but if I was to position it, I'd say it has far, far more headroom than the Fosi K5 I had but perhaps not quite the same amount as the G6. That's assuming I'm just using...

Have picked up a Qudelix 5k for use with the PS5 now (comes in handy on the PC and S23 Ultra also). Fasntastic little device - plenty of volume on PS5 with my HD560s and a far, far better mic input than the G6 I was using before. :) Still wondering what might be the next step up in open backed...

Yea - I already had the 560s so I just couldn't justify the extra expense for my usage despite how good the T1 were for gaming.

@Timber @michty_me - hi both. The Fosi K5 Pro was of interest when I purchased it as I wanted to try something that was PS5 friendly but which had a better mic input than the G6. In reality, while the K5 does have a far better mic input, it just doesn't have the sound or sufficient volume...

Using HD560s with Creative G6 or Fosi K5 Pro no PS5 or when I want convenience, Audeze Maxwell wireless headset :)

Had my set a day now after previously having the Penrose (until a few month's ago when I went wired using HD560s and Beyer T1.2). The Maxwell just feel many steps above the Penrose as soon as they come out of the box, far better materials, more comfortable despite the extra weight and a much...

Only wireless headset I have kept (after trying Nova Pro, A50, Corsair options (and more) were the Audeze Penrose. Still not perfect but when I don't the cable with my HD560s and G6 on the Ps5, I reach for the Penrose knowing the audio will still be fantastic. Nova Pro sounded pretty decent to...
