Hear every detail with powerful planar drivers
Accurate sound can make a real difference when you're gaming. The Maxwell 2 ANC features large 90mm planar magnetic drivers that reproduce fine details across your favourite soundtracks and gaming environments. You'll hear subtle footsteps, weapon reloads, and distant effects with greater definition, helping you identify important audio cues during competitive play.
These drivers also deliver deep, controlled bass without overwhelming other frequencies, keeping explosions impactful and dialogue intelligible. Dual dedicated 1.4W amplifiers operate in balanced mode, supporting detailed reproduction and effective noise reduction. The result is a balanced listening experience that handles both fast-paced gameplay and immersive single-player adventures.
Stay focused with advanced noise cancellation
Background noise can quickly become distracting, particularly when you're trying to concentrate on important in-game sounds. The Maxwell 2 ANC uses aviation-grade active noise cancellation to reduce unwanted environmental noise by up to 35dB. This helps you stay engaged with your game, even when your surroundings aren't particularly quiet.
Importantly, the headset is engineered to maintain a consistent frequency response with noise cancellation enabled or disabled. You can switch between listening modes without substantially changing the intended sound balance. Memory foam earpads provide additional comfort and support noise reduction, while the ventilated head strap distributes pressure during longer sessions.
Experience accurate positioning and responsive wireless audio
Knowing where sounds originate can help you react more confidently during gameplay. Integrated, self-calibrating head tracking supports realistic spatial audio in compatible applications, adjusting the listening experience as you move your head. Support includes Embody Immerse Gaming Hive for personalised PC gaming audio and Dolby Atmos Renderer for professional content creation.
For wireless gaming, the supplied USB-C dongle provides ultra-low latency transmission with audio resolutions up to 24-bit/96kHz. This helps keep sound closely synchronised with on-screen action. Wired USB-C connectivity offers another high-resolution option, while Bluetooth supports LDAC, AAC, Auracast, and LE Audio for additional listening flexibility across compatible devices.
Communicate clearly and play in comfort
Clear communication matters when coordinating with teammates or speaking to your audience. The Maxwell 2 ANC features FILTER AI microphone noise removal, designed to reduce distracting background sounds while preserving natural vocal clarity. You can activate noise removal with a button press, making it convenient to manage unwanted sounds during conversations or live streams.
The detachable boom microphone includes a pop filter, helping you maintain clear speech during longer sessions. A wide, ventilated head strap and memory foam earpads support comfortable listening. You'll also receive a USB-C wireless dongle, USB-C cables, a USB-A adapter cable, and a 3.5mm analog cable for flexible connections.
