The Audeze Maxwell is the best-sounding PS5 headset we’ve reviewed. But even though it has a pleasing selection of EQ presets to choose from, creating a custom equalizer can deliver an even better experience.

  • 🔊 Edifier M60 best EQ settings: these desktop speakers pack a punch with the right equalizer

  • 🎧 Astro A50 best EQ settings: get the most out of Logitech G’s high-end headset

  • 🎧 Astro A20 X best EQ settings: fine-tune your headset for gaming and comms with these equalizers

  • 🤫 Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones Gen 2 best EQ settings

Most will be happy with how even the ‘Immersive’ or ‘Audeze’ presets sound, but both settings can be tweaked ever so slightly to create a more engaging EQ that makes the headset more “fun” in terms of its sound stage.
