We won’t lie, £400 for a gaming headset is pretty extortionate. But, if you can afford it, the Audeze Mobius more than justifies its upfront cost. The Mobius features a wealth of custom hardware you won’t find on any other gaming headset.
The Mobius makes fantastic use of the detailed planar magnetic drivers to produce game audio that is up there with anything on the market today. Forget the dubious 3D audio and head tracking gimmicks, the actual aural experience is what makes these cans great.
The best audiophile headphones are operate on the open-back principle. That makes for a less fatiguing experience and delivers the best sound as it’s not bouncing around inside a closed ear-cup creating strange reverberations. It also means you get broad, expansive soundscapes perfect for open-world gaming.
If what you care about most of all is audio quality and you don't mind paying for it, the Audeze Mobius headphones are the top of the pile. Their price tag is extreme and there are more comfortable headsets out there. Build quality could be a little better too, but for the absolute best in audio quality, whether it's in-game action or your own personal music collection, this is the headset to get.
Buying headphones is similar to buying a pair of shoes. You wonder how? It's because both of them come in all shapes and sizes but eventually, you end up buying the ones that fit you comfortably.
"I was extremely impressed with the Audeze LCD-GX’s comfort and fit. The combination of the lighter earcups with its improved, better fitting headband makes them more comfortable than ever before."
Xbox Addict says: If you can afford it and want a premium headset that sounds better than any other you’ve heard, then look into the Audeze Mobius and Gaming, mostly on Xbox One, was equally impressive.
Unique ... not just great but brilliant, surround sound virtualizing headphones are easy to recommend to any player who is ready to invest in their audio. Mobius scores 9/10.Â
