Maxwell 2 ANC User Guide - Microphones – Audeze Customer Service Center

Maxwell 2 ANC features two separate microphones for user input to offer additional flexibility.

Boom Mic

The detachable Shure boom microphone is designed to offer maximum voice quality and clarity on Maxwel 2 ANC. It features a max SPL of more than 140dB and built-in noise filters that reduce up to an additional 20dB of background sound.

For optimal results, position the boom mic capsule 2 inches from the speaker's face.

The boom mic comes with a foam pop filter preinstalled on the end of the mic capsule which can be easily removed or replaced.

Internal Mic

When the boom mic is unplugged, Maxwell 2 ANC will automatically switch to the internal microphone for communications. This can be used for on-the-go conversations or for users who prefer a lower-profile look to their headset.

Beamforming Array

Maxwell 2 ANC features a multi-mic beamforming array built into the ear cups. These mics help triangulate and narrow down the area of mic pickup to a narrow cone in front of the speaker’s face. This helps eliminate unwanted pickup from external sources.

Disabling the Microphone

Both Maxwell 2 ANC microphones can be disabled by switching the mute switch on the right ear cup to the UP (Mute) position at any time.
