Hi! I have an Audeze Maxwell. My wireless USB adapter broke. I tried bluetooth, but it only works well with my phone. I tried both a PCI-E bluetooth/wifi adapter and a USB bluetooth/wifi adapter on my desktop, and neither give a good connection. It’s ok for listening to music, but like they share on Audeze’s website – although it may kind of work, the quality will be unpleasant.

I’m trying to instead plug a USB cable from my headphones to my computer, and I’m not sure how to get my ARCH LINUX install to recognize the USB.

When I plug in the computer, I got a couple popups. One saying

“USB Device Connected MediaTek Inc. MT6227 phone has been plugged in.”

Then another notification that says

“USB Device Removed MediaTek Inc. MT6227 phone has been unplugged.”

    Oh sorry I was in a rush reading your post the first time and fully missed that your wireless adapter was broken lol. Do you have a 3.5mm audio cable to use? I honestly don’t even know if the USB port supports audio but my gut feeling would be charging only (can’t imagine why they’d bother putting a DAC in the headphones). I won’t have my headphones or my pc for a couple days but I can poke around with this after that if you want anything tested on another similar setup, by then.
