Unplug and listen to music, binge watch Netflix, or re-watch Game of Thrones. Connect to your PCs, game consoles, and mobile devices by USB-C, Bluetooth, or analog (cables included).

“The Audeze Mobius is one of the most exciting headphones we’ve come across and nothing short of a game-changer. It has phenomenal sound - that much is expected - but what I didn’t expect was just how fantastic its built-in surround sound could be. Even calling it that is reductive. This is more than just surround sound. Mobius is VR for your ears.” Review from MMORPG.org:
“I tried the Audeze Mobius headphones with "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. Mobius quickly proved their worth once enemies started intruding into my comfort zone. I found myself inside a building when I heard the unmistakable hum of a car getting closer and closer behind me. I turned back and I pointed at the source of the sound that was coming from outside the house. Then I tracked the sound as it moved. The real test for the Mobius was whether I was tracking that sound accurately. I followed the sound of the car through the building walls when it crossed a window and I could finally see the car. It was proof that I was hearing exactly where the car was located from the moment I first heard it.” Review from Business Insider
"If you can get past the cost, the Audeze Mobius are superb gaming headphones. Sound quality is some of the best you’ll find in gaming headphones and the Mobius are incredibly versatile thanks to the multitude of connection options. The Audeze Mobius are more than just gaming headphones to keep at your desk. They’re everything headphones to bring with you into the world too." Review from IGN.

High-End PC Gaming. Discord certified!Mobius gives you the most realistic listening experience due to our Planar Magnetic drivers and the 3D surround sound – you’ll easily hear characters before you can see them! For PCs & PS4 you’ll use the USB connection, and for Xbox, you’ll use the analog cable (with some feature limitations). Control keyboard commands with your head movements via our key-binding features. For example, you could program a “head-up” move to peek around a corner or bring up the map in PUBG. |
Watch movies in 5.1 from your laptop or tabletUsing the USB cable, watch movies in 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound. You can turn the head-tracking feature on/off to your preference and, using our app (PC & Mac) set your very own HTRFs for the best sound, specifically for your ears. |
Home office ZOOM & Skype video calls using the boom mic. And High Resolution audio via Bluetooth - with LDAC, you get 3x the data rate! Perhaps more importantly, LDAC does not change the sample rate before compression like all other systems. This means your 96kHz or 192kHz files are not down-sampled to 44.1kHz. And LDAC is available on virtually all Android phones/tablets. |
Customize the audio to your own ears and have your head movements control your games!
With Audeze’s HQ application (Windows or Mac) you can input your specific head measurements to get the most exact audio. Measure your own intra-aural and head circumference distances and add the room ambience. Additionally, you can use key-binding to allow your head movements with Mobius control some aspects of your games (depending upon the game, of course). For example, while playing PUBG, you can tilt your head up to see the game map. Or move your head to the left to peek around corners or bring up a barrier.
Our Planar Magnetic technology
Acoustically engineered for accuracy Audeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers clear and accurate sound that reveals everything on the recording.
Diaphragms thinner than a human hair We use space-age materials in an ultra thin diaphragm four times larger than typical headphones for fast response times, dramatically reduced distortion, higher resolution and improved imaging.
Near zero distortion Double-sided magnet arrays delivers a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm for near zero distortion.
Internal waveguide Patented Fazor Elements guide internal headphone soundwaves to avoid resonances for a more accurate waveform.
WAVES Nx surround sound technology with Mobius

About Audeze
Audeze started in 2008 in a garage (of course!) when its founders came across a revolutionary flexible circuit material developed for NASA. Realizing this could be a great advance in planar magnetic technology, they first started to make pro audio PA speakers, but switched direction and started making headphones - officially launching Audeze.

I game on PS4 and up until now have only ever used Sony’s Playstation Gold headset which was very reliable until one of the hinges recently broke. Initially, I replaced that headset with the newer Gold model, which as it turns out are much less comfortable than their previous design. In comes the Audeze Mobius… I had no idea what I had been missing using the Sony headset. The sound of the Mobius headset is so much crisper. They’re comfortable and extremely well-built.
I primarily play first person shooters (FPS) like Destiny 2 and Apex Legends. I expect that the 3D audio of the Mobius headset is a major advantage in these types of games. My initial impressions have been extremely positive. Additionally, my friends have commented on how much better my voice sounds in party chat. Apparently, the boom mic provided with the headset is quite good! The one thing I wish Audeze could address in future iterations of the Mobius headset would be for it to be Bluetooth compatible with the PS4. Being totally wireless would be nice; however, that being said, the connection to the console via usb works well and keeps the headset charged at all times so that’s cool.
After gaming with my new headset for a bit, I laid back on the couch and listened to some tunes. First, I threw on some hip hop and was immediately impressed by how detailed and clear the sound was. It had a real nice low end but wasn’t overly bassy! Then, I listened to some indie rock music I’ve written and recorded over the years. It had honestly never sounded better, even through high-end studio monitors.
I’m looking forward to using this headset for many years to come and have already recommended it to my friends. For a console gamer, the price is a bit steep but considering how versatile the headset is, I see myself getting a ton of use out of it in every facet of my daily life: gaming, teaching, recording, listening, etc.
Audio quality is great and i likely can never go back from this style of audio; though even the general use has some issues.
Microphone quality is generally poor, but i didn't really buy these for that so i'm fine with this.
The audio quality is great for wired, though wireless is going to be worse due to limitations of bluetooth. The downside is this has a battery that can cause some woes with use.
Firstly if you turn off your computer and don't turn off the headphones they don't seem to have a sleep mod and regularly i found they would just simply drain their battery overnight.
The dials on the side of the left ear also function as buttons; one of which has a somewhat baffling feature of turning off the headphone's ability to charge, worst of all it seems this is a one-way change that will not reset until the headphones have been turned off/back on.
The 3D audio feature is pointless, as it simply adjusts audio as if you were turning your head away from it. It defaults to "Auto" and i found myself needing to re-disable this constantly because auto simply just means on, and it would regularly turn itself back on if the headphones turn off. The issue is this just sounds bad and means if you're someone like me with multiple monitors you just end up getting worse audio for turning your head to look at something.
The audio defaults to surround, which in itself is a bit annoying as many applications don't handle this well, some voice applications tend to simply give you bad high reverb audio; while others will correctly report stereo-only and give you correct audio. This is mostly a problem because this is the default and applications tend to not default support this and thus I found myself needing to also re-toggle this setting anytime the headphones needed to be turned back on.
All of these are mild annoyances that feel so much worse when having to deal with the plastic of the headphones breaking so quickly. I'm not even particularly rough with these, this simply was basic wear-and-tear of opening them up slightly to put on/off my ears.
Edit: Putting this down to a 1-star review. This headset hasn't made it 6 months and one of the ears has completely fallen off, the plastic simply keeps breaking, as a continue to tape/glue/repair each seciton another simply fails instead. The cost simply cannot justify how poor of quality this plastic is.

Le suivi sonore est fascinant!
Reviewed in Spain on August 31, 2021
Aber ich möchte nicht lange um den heißen Brei reden:
Das Headset von Audeze ist für mich leider völlig unbrauchbar. Es ist ein sehr lautes Hintergrundgeräusch zu hören (white noise, hissing). Immer. Und wenn man lauter dreht wird das Geräusch ebenfalls lauter (egal auf welchem Kanal, also Bluetooth, AUX oder USB). Auch wenn nichts angeschlossen ist, ist das Geräusch ständig da, sofern es eingeschalten ist. Ich habe alle Settings, welche in der App einstellbar sind ausprobiert. In jeder erdenklichen Kombination. Ohne Erfolg.
Da ich mein Headset eigentlich immer aufhabe wenn ich vor dem PC sitze, egal ob Musik oder YouTube oder sonstiges läuft, ist das einfach unerträglich. Es ist so laut, dass auch wenn Ton abgespielt wird, es immer noch hörbar ist. Also natürlich dann nicht mehr so laut und man muss sich darauf konzentrieren, aber es ist hörbar und störend, wenn man weiß, dass es da ist.
Wirklich eine sehr große Enttäuschung (egal welche Preisklasse, auch wenn das Headset 10€ gekostet hätte, hätte ich es zurück geschickt).
Internet Foren beschreiben hier, dass man beim Modell Penrose wohl die Möglichkeit hat hier etwas in der App zu ändern, wenn man aber das Mobius gekauft hat, gibt es keine Lösung!
Es bleibt noch zu sagen, dass dieses Geräusch (ebenfalls laut Foren) nicht jeder hört, ob dass an der individuellen Hörleistung oder an fehlerhaften Geräten liegt kann ich natürlich nicht beurteilen. Ich werde mir nach dieser Enttäuschung allerdings nicht noch ein Gerät schicken lassen in der Hoffnung das ich ein "Sonntags Gerät" erwischt habe.
Schade, und ich wünsche jedem, der dieses Geräusch nicht hört viel vergnügen mit einem ansonsten tollen Headset.
Acquistato su Amazzon Prime unico pezzo modello Top Premium, introvabile al prezzo pagato,non credo ci siano Cuffie per il Games e l'ascolto in genere tv film e Musica con Cavo o Bluetooth con un realismo tale da lasciarti stupito😲.
Provare per Credere.
また国内未発売ですが機能を削減し安価で無線能力を強化した後継機が発売されています
このヘッドセットは音を出せば気にはなりませんがホワイトノイズが若干大きいです
バッテリーは連続10時間で充電には3時間かかります、ややスタミナ不足ですがUSBにて充電しながらの利用は可能です
ボタンと機能が多いためなれるまでは混乱するかもしれません
側圧はやや強いもののクッション性がよく長時間付けていても痛みません
デメリットばかり強調してしまいましたが総合的には良いヘッドセットだと思います
音質が良く個々の音が分離し特に高音はきらびやかに聞こえます、また定位がとても良いため足音等の音が何処で鳴っているのかはっきりと分かります
ゲーミングヘッドセットにありがちな音の歪んだ感じもしませんので映画や音楽も楽しめるでしょう
最大の特徴の3Dオーディオヘッドトラッキングを使えばスピーカーが配置された部屋の中にいるように感じられます、流石に真後ろからの音はわかり辛いですが…
またDACを内蔵しているためUSB等でPCと繋ぐだけで煩わしい接続をしなくて良いので手軽です
デメリットを許容できればゲームを楽しむためとして本機は最適だと思いました
