Audeze MM-500 Planar Magnetic Headphone

Audeze MM-500 Professional Reference Planar Magnetic Headphones

Audeze MM-500 Professional Reference Planar Magnetic Headphones are designed in collaboration with award-winning producer and mixer Manny Marroquin, created specifically for audio professionals who require consistent mix translation across all playback systems. These headphones are built for mixing, mastering, and high-resolution reference listening, delivering an accurate, neutral, and highly detailed sound signature.

The MM-500 utilizes advanced neodymium planar magnetic drivers that provide exceptional transient response and extremely low distortion. With a frequency response ranging from 5 Hz to 50 kHz, the headphones reproduce deep low-end extension, precise midrange clarity, and smooth high-frequency detail, ensuring that every element in a mix is clearly defined.

The open-back circumaural design allows sound to expand naturally, creating a realistic stereo field that closely resembles high-end studio monitor performance. This helps engineers remove room influence from the listening experience and make accurate mixing decisions in any environment.

Built with machined aluminum and spring steel, the MM-500 offers a durable yet lightweight structure designed for long-term professional use. The extra-plush premium leather earpads provide superior comfort during extended sessions, while the adjustable headband ensures balanced weight distribution.

The headphone is engineered for efficiency with low impedance and high sensitivity, making it compatible with a wide range of audio interfaces, consoles, and portable devices. It maintains consistent performance even in varied monitoring setups.

Planar magnetic technology, combined with neodymium magnet arrays and Fazor waveguides, enhances sound accuracy, reduces distortion, and improves spatial imaging. These innovations ensure reliable tonal balance and precise detail reproduction critical for professional audio work.

Each unit is handcrafted in the USA and includes a detachable braided cable system along with a standard professional travel case for protection and portability.
