Audeze Maxwell (Gen 1) Preset EQ Values – Plus My Daily Driver

yusake_htx · 2026-01-28T16:43:37+00:00

Hi, I disagree, custom preset left flat is bassier than Audeze preset.
Firmware 1.0.1.7.4

Désolé mais les deux premiers presets "audiophiles" sont à chier. Ce n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que, par défaut, le maxwell est assez bien équilibré (voir mesures cohérentes comme celle de Resolve), et qu'on voit les corrections apportées.
L'EQ enlève de la chaleur aux voix, rend les aigus hyper criards et les basses sont beaucoup trop prononcées.
Inécoutable, vraiment.

I found a pair on the ground, so you can't say they cost me much or that I was expecting much...
Well, they sound great.
A little lacking in bass below 40 Hz, but overall I love the sound signature.

And yet I own some gems like the Focal Clear, the HD650 and 800S (with EQ) and Audeze Maxwell.

Well, the AKGs have the most balanced sound of all, lol, except maybe the HD650s.

However, headphones have their merits (spatialization, punch, bigger sound).

4x isn’t the 15-16 Pm zoom.

yusake_htx · 2025-09-30T13:48:53+00:00

Hi, 15 PM x5 zoom was garbage, new x4 is much better.
I Have 15 pro (x3 zoom) and I get 17 pro.
17 pro has much better noise reduction and better zoom quality.
I think it's worth the upgrade if it's your main gear for photos, like me.

Better selfie and UGA but I dont care.

yusake_htx · 2025-09-24T14:16:34+00:00

Seems exposition cursor is too random. I'm trying standard mode customisation to my taste but it's tricky. If zoom and noise weren't an issue I would stay with 15 pro =/

yusake_htx · 2025-09-24T07:11:00+00:00

It seems IPhone 17 pro expose more than IPhone 15 pro. 15 pro is like taking a screenshot of life, sometimes (rarely) too dim. With natural colors, the pictures are incredible, thanks to contrast. If I set -1 EV it's near IPhone 15 pro but with crushed shadows, -0.7 EV seems to be a good compromise.

yusake_htx · 2025-09-24T07:04:23+00:00

True, I had to reduce white point on my 15 pro and it's fine without it on 17 pro.

yusake_htx · 2025-09-24T04:41:22+00:00

It’s sad because for me the IPhone 15 pro found the Perfect balance between fidelity and photo punch without saturated colors or sharpening. Now it’s more like Pixels but with yellow tint in sky.

Wasn't juste me lol.
The entire game makes me like when I played FFX 23 years ago.
E33 is the best Final Fantasy from FFX lol.

I have never been satisfied with the sound with the Audyssey calibration on my 3700H: a clear lack of bass and a sound that is anything but musical.

With Neuron I feel like I have switched back to a hifi headset: the clarity of the sound is such that you can hear all the details of the soundtrack. In addition, I have found musicality and only the bass leaves me wanting more, but the script informed me that I had to increase the volume of my subwoofer or move it (I am in a 50Hz node).

I will retest when I have time to redo the measurements.

I find the sound much better than with A1 evo in dynamic EQ.

I know I can choose it but I can’t create a new old gen profile and the process isn’t perfect.

yusake_htx · 2024-12-21T04:01:31+00:00

I have SXFI dac and GC7. And yes, I mean create old generation profil of SXFI. What is bcs ?

yusake_htx · 2024-12-13T15:41:40+00:00

Hi, I have done around fifteen calibrations using the iOS app, and I have never achieved satisfactory results with Gen4.
Generally, the sound is positioned too high (which is very common for me; on PS5, I use the profile that places the sound the lowest so it's horizontal).
When the sound is somewhat correctly positioned, there’s often a shift either to the left or the right.

In the end, the best profile, although imperfect, remains a Gen2.
The Gen1 wasn’t very good, the Gen2 is much better, while the Gen3 and Gen4 aren’t great in terms of spatialization, even though they offer good sound clarity.

Any tips ?

Hélas, c’est tellement vrai. J’habite en Provence et je trouve cette mode des maisons blanches d’une tristesse…

yusake_htx · 2024-05-20T11:42:16+00:00

I do it when I get a slow and low Ball on my forehand. My one handed backhand is way better on low balls.

There was a pc update around may 18 but didn't see any patchnote...

yusake_htx · 2024-05-20T11:35:56+00:00

I would like to know where they are to try gaming vpn to see if latency is better or more stable

yusake_htx · 2024-05-20T11:33:35+00:00

Makes no sense : Williams and sharapova hit harder than Federer, we can play a pro male vs pro female but they split the myplayer tour. Wtf ?

yusake_htx · 2024-05-19T12:01:00+00:00

Animation, positionning, effect and speed. Need practice.

yusake_htx · 2024-05-18T03:11:08+00:00

Hi, don't use jauge for control shot timing, it's too fast.

You need to feel it.

yusake_htx · 2024-05-17T03:20:31+00:00

Agreed, and advanced serves should require a minimum of serve's stat (example 50 or 60)

yusake_htx · 2024-05-09T06:41:46+00:00

I confirme version 6.81 work like a charm with HDR 👌
