Audeze MM-520

The Audeze MM-520 is an open-back professional headphone designed for critical recording and mixing sessions. Developed in collaboration with 18-time Grammy-winning engineer Manny Marroquin, it serves as a dependable studio reference tool. As a result, it delivers the precision and balance of world-class studio monitors directly to your ears.

In addition, the open-back acoustic design creates a spacious and natural soundstage with clear depth. Therefore, audio professionals can make confident mixing decisions that translate reliably to any playback system.

Refined planar drivers with SLAM technology

The MM-520 features planar magnetic drivers refined in Audeze’s Southern California workshop. Furthermore, the headphones use patent-pending SLAM technology to deliver deeper, tighter bass alongside an exceptionally accurate midrange. Because of this, you hear every subtle nuance and mix adjustment with total clarity.

Built for studio life and reliable translation

Engineered and tested for everyday studio work, this headset delivers consistent performance whether you work in a treated control room or on the go. Moreover, the focused frequency response ensures that your level and EQ choices remain balanced across external listening setups.

Upgraded comfort and magnetic earpads

For long recording and mixing sessions, the MM-520 includes soft memory foam earpads that provide plush, fatigue-free comfort. In addition, the earpads use a magnetic attachment system. As a result, cleaning, swapping, or maintaining the ear cushions is fast and effortless.
