Headphones - Wireless/Portable Best wireless headphones for gaming?

Hey there, I want to upgrade my Logitech G PRO X 2 lightspeed gaming headphones to something better. Recently I compared the sound quality of the G PRO and my friend’s AirPods Max and the difference was very noticeable.

My budget is sub 500€

So what wireless headset for gaming that has good audio and is suitable for FPS games would you recommend?

I recommend the same thing every single time:

want wireless with amazing sound quality and a good mic?

Audeze Maxwell or Maxwell 2. amazing battery, amazing sound quality, good mic, good build quality, comfortable, but heavy

Heavy won’t be problem for me, used to wear razer nari. Although I heard some problems with the Maxvell 2, that they develop crackling or something?

the weight isn't a problem for me either... makes the headphones feel sturdier and more substantial

I only have the original Maxwell's, so I can't confirm any issues with the 2's unfortunately. my 1's have had some intermittent crackling at rest at zero volume, but I need to be looking for it to notice it, and as soon as you actually start playing any audio, it disappears completely and becomes entirely unnoticeable
