Audeze Designs Limited Edition Ultraviolet Gaming Headset for Microsoft

July 11 2023, 14:10
Audeze announced the release of a limited edition gaming headset developed in partnership with Microsoft, for their Designed for Xbox Summer product collection. This limited edition "Ultraviolet" version of the Audeze Maxwell gaming headset features a new finish that adds a head-turning and unique look to one of the best gaming headsets on the market - launched in an understated matte grey finish. The Ultraviolet edition of the Maxwell headphone is available on the Audeze website for pre-order in limited quantities.
The partnership between Audeze and Microsoft began in 2021 with the Microsoft certification of Audeze’s Penrose gaming headset, and continued recently with Microsoft’s certification of the company's latest Maxwell gaming headset. This partnership has made Audeze’s planar magnetic headsets accessible to Microsoft’s vast audience of console users, exposing them to the improved audio quality and advantages for gaming. Now with the Ultraviolet limited edition of Maxwell, they can use their sonic advantage less discreetly.

Microsoft's "Designed for Xbox" program premiered its first collection with a variety of gaming accessories in playful pastel tones last spring. But this year, the second collection of "Designed for Xbox, which is set to feature a headset for the first time, is betting on sparkle and shine. To elevate the grey vintage look of the original Maxwell headset for the collection, a color-shifting finish was painstakingly applied to the aluminum and steel earcups and headband using an electroplating process, resulting in a stunningly one-of-a-kind look. 
And Audeze’s Maxwell Ultraviolet Edition wireless headset features low-latency Bluetooth 5.3 with LE Audio, LC3plus, and LDAC, combined with Dolby Atmos, and Audeze's FILTER A.I. noise-reducing microphone technology. Impressive considering that these are headphones that use massive 90mm planar drivers and still manage to deliver 80-hours of battery life.
 
The Audeze Maxwell Ultraviolet Edition Wireless Gaming Headset is available for pre-order today through xbox.com and Audeze for $329.00 USD ERP and will officially launch on August 15, 2023. Visit xbox.com
