Our Verdict

SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless [PC, PS, Xbox]

Audeze Maxwell 2

The Audeze Maxwell 2 are better gaming headphones than the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. The Audeze's microphone easily surpasses the performance of the SteelSeries, reproducing your voice accurately, even if you're in a noisy room. The Audeze also have a more balanced sound profile that reproduces voices and instruments alike with accuracy and clarity. That said, the Audeze headphones do have poor frequency-response consistency, meaning their bass response is greatly affected by how they fit. If you wear glasses or have an unusually-sized head, the SteelSeries may be a better pick.
