Audeze announces the Maxwell 2 gaming headset, an overhaul of its predecessor, that is targeted firmly at audiophile gamers — and you can buy it now

Audiophile brand Audeze has announced its new Audeze Maxwell 2 wireless gaming headset, and it's out now.

Firmly aimed at the high-end premium-grade audio part of the gaming headset market, this follow-up to the much-lauded original Audeze Maxwell is an "inside-and-out upgrade" according to Audeze, so "serious competitors and immersion-seeking enthusiasts alike" will benefit and enjoy top-class audio.

Audeze states that powering the Maxwell 2 and its improved audio performance under the hood is the brand's patent-pending "SLAM technology". This tech "produces heightened spatial immersion and precision along with punchier bass response" - though the proof will be in the pudding when we get our hands on one to test, of course.
