Audeze announce the MM-520

Manny Marroquin signature cans upgraded with SLAM Technology

The flagship model in Audeze's Manny Marroquin Signature Series has just been treated to an upgrade that promises to improve their already impressive performance. The new MM-520 build on the award-winning MM-500, with the introduction of the company's SLAM (Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator) technology promising to arm the new arrival with unprecedented bass accuracy and spatial detail.

As with its siblings, the MM-520 has been developed in close collaboration with the 18-time Grammy-winning engineer, and has been built from the ground up to deliver mixes that translate perfectly across any playback system. The inclusion of the SLAM technology helps to optimise air pressure within the earcup, which helps to enhance low-frequency impact and soundstage transparency without sacrificing the midrange neutrality for which the MM-500 are praised.

Key Features

Audeze's Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator (SLAM) enhances bass performance and spatial imaging, providing a more visceral yet accurate low-end response.

Refined by one of the industrys top engineers to ensure mastering-grade reliability and emotional engagement.

Features 90mm planar magnetic drivers with Ultra-Thin Uniforce diaphragms and Fazor phase management for ultra-low distortion and clinical precision.

High sensitivity and low impedance allow the MM-520 to be driven easily by consoles, interfaces or laptops, both inside and outside the studio.

Upgraded memory-foam earpads designed for comfort during marathon mixing sessions, with magnetic attachment for easy replacement

The MM-520 represents the latest entry in our mission to provide creators and professionals with the ultimate monitoring tool. By adding SLAM technology to Mannys signature series, weve created a headphone that delivers even more truth in the low end while maintaining the signature clarity Audeze is known for. - Sankar Thiagasamudram, CEO, Audeze

Pricing & Availability The MM-520 will be available soon, priced at $1699.
