The OneOdio Studio Max 2 is a wireless set of headphones for all comers. It doesn’t matter if you’re a gamer, an artist, or if you just enjoy high-fidelity audio with ultra-low latency; the OneOdio Studio Max 2 is the one for you. This multi-faceted device might have a pretty high price point, but it backs up the tag with a capable array of technical specs and an attractive aesthetic.
I should stress that the OneOdio Studio Max 2 is marketed first for DJs and audio professionals, but I tested it in a gaming capacity and had absolutely no issues.
Read on to check out my full OneOdio Studio Max 2 review.
Does The OneOdio Studio Max 2 Compare to Prolific Brands?
As a gamer, there are many headphones you’d pick before stumbling across the OneOdio set. The likes of Logitech, Razer, SteelSeries, HyperX, and Turtle Beach would all come before OneOdio, but that doesn’t mean you should discredit the brand entirely.
The OneOdio Studio Max 2 packs a punch under the hood, even if the outer shell isn’t really much to write home about. It’s a clean, neat device that offers no frills in the visual department, but it’s attractive enough to represent its price point fairly well.
Under that aforementioned hood, you’ve got an ultra-low-latency operating model with a 400 kbps wireless bitrate for the highest audio quality possible. The open-ended device has four connectivity modes, including a 6.35 mm jack, which goes some way towards indicating the studio designation of the headphones.
What’s most impressive is the battery on the OneOdio Studio Max 2, which lasts up to 120 hours. For the best audio specification possible, you’ll want to use the M2 transmitter that comes in the box, which will knock the battery down to 50 hours but offers incredible clarity and depth.
In the cups, you’ve got 45 mm dynamic drivers with studio-grade hardware, all sitting alongside that massive 1000 mAh battery.
Out of the box, the OneOdio Studio Max 2 just works. It comes with a nice carry case to keep it safe, and all the cables you need to plug and play with the device are included.
When I was gaming with the OneOdio Studio Max 2, I had no concerns, as I’ve said. The directional audio was as good as you’d want, the range was clean, and the comfort level was pretty high, even after a couple of hours of consistent wear.
At the time of writing, the OneOdio Studio Max 2 carried a price tag of $189.99, which might seem a bit sharp and puts it up there with some of the biggest brand names in the business. That’s one of the drawbacks, as OneOdio isn’t a very well-known brand, which might make some question the cost.
Ultimately, I could recommend the OneOdio Studio Max 2, but perhaps not for just gaming. If you’re also into music production or have an audiophile streak, then maybe you’ll enjoy and appreciate them much more.
