Audeze MM-500 review: A $1,699 masterpiece

 

With the MM-500, Audeze offers one of the best packages you'll get in the sub-$2,000 segment. These headphones offer the best features from the flagship LCD-5 at a third of the price.

Review: Audeze MM-500 | Audeze's Most Successful?

 

The MM-500 has been developed by and for studio engineers, to reveal the full substance of a recording. Something that also provides pure enjoyment for

Detail level and transients are in a class of their own! The sound character is neutral for studio use, but otherwise fantastically engaging to listen to! The heavy weight is nicely distributed.

Not super-easy to drive; you don't buy these without having a high-quality amplifier as well. And they can be a little too tight around the ears.

The Audeze MM-500 are the manufacturer’s first pure studio headphones. But if you thought that meant you shouldn’t use them just to enjoy good music at home, think again. Just because they sound neutral doesn’t mean they sound boring. Quite the contrary.

Highly engaging tuning ; Beautifully designed ; Easy enough to drive
