Developed in collaboration with Grammy-winning mix engineer Manny Marroquin, the MM-500 delivers the precision, balance, and translation professionals need when making critical mix decisions. With stunning clarity, fast transient response, and exceptional detail retrieval, the MM-500 allows engineers to hear every nuance of a production with confidence.

The MM-500 is carefully tuned for a neutral and revealing frequency response that translates reliably across different playback systems. Built for the demands of professional environments, the headphones feature a lightweight yet rugged chassis with a comfortable suspension headband and premium ear pads for long studio sessions.
