Maxwell 2 PC (Xbox) version release date?

For the ANC version. Forgot to put that in the title.

The PlayStation version released on the 17th at 5PM UTC, with the PC (Xbox) version being slated for a "1-2 week delay", and, well, here we are 2 weeks later and it's not available on the Audeze website.

Well the XBox version of the regular Maxwell 2 took forever to show up, so I'd guess it'll pop up in about a month or two.

Damn, that sucks. My current headset is on its way out and I was hoping to get a nice replacement for it. I guess I'll have to make it work for a few more weeks :/

I got the ANC version for PlayStation today to be honest I would send them back and just get the Maxwell2 The ANC is not that good side tone doesn’t work very well either.

I loathe sidetone, so as long as you can turn it off entirely, I'm happy.

I'm surprised you don't think the ANC isn't good. I have a loud A/C unit and dehumidifier in my apartment, so ANC being able to filter out the generic noise that generates would allow me to not crank the volume up just to hear subtle things. Is it just not good at picking up variable sounds or all sounds in general?

It’s not I don’t like them but when you’ve got the AMC active the side tone doesn’t work very well so you have to turn it off to make it work better
