Upgrade Carrying Case Compatible with Audeze Maxwell and Popular

In this review of the Upgrade Carrying Case Compatible with Audeze Maxwell and popular gaming headsets, the bottom line is simple: this case is for owners who need serious protection and tidy transport for large, high-end headphones. The reviewer found it best suited to Maxwell, MM-100, LCD-S20 and several Kraken and Corsair models because of its molded EVA shell, plush interior and internal strap that prevent movement. If you travel with your headset or store it between uses, this case offers a clear advantage in rigidity and long-term protection.

Key Features

• Great Compatibility: Designed to fit Maxwell, Aydan Maxwell, MM-100, LCD-S20 and many Kraken and Corsair headsets so users can store different large headphones securely.
• Ultimate Protection: Hardened EVA shell and molded structural design resist crushing forces and can support heavy loads, keeping headphones safe from impacts and pressure.
• Durable Exterior: 1800D Twill nylon outer layer resists water, cuts and scrapes for reliable travel performance in varied conditions.
• Soft Interior: Plush velvet lining reduces friction and surface wear on earcups and headbands while inside the case.
• Accessory Storage: Center storage area plus included carabiner, nylon bag and Velcro cable tie let users keep cables and small accessories organized.
• Robust Hardware: Metal alloy zipper tabs and a water resistant zipper liner increase durability during frequent use.

Who It's For

This case is ideal for listeners who own large over-ear sets like the Maxwell series or popular Kraken and Virtuoso Max models and need a compact, protective solution for commuting, flights or home storage. Audiophiles who prioritize protection against drops, pressure and scuffs will appreciate the molded EVA construction and plush interior.

It is less suited for users who need a very small pouch for in-bag storage of compact earbuds or users requiring rigid, form-fitted inserts for multiple different-sized headphones without adjusting the arms. Also, those who need ultra-lightweight options for minimal carry weight may prefer a softer, slimmer sleeve.
