Manny Marroquin Signature Series

The Audeze MM-520 is the next evolution in the Manny Marroquin Signature Series, engineered alongside the 18-time Grammy-winning mix engineer for flawless studio translation. Building on the acclaimed MM-500, this open-back headphone introduces Audeze’s revolutionary SLAM™ (Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator) technology. By optimizing internal earcup air pressure, SLAM™ delivers unprecedented low-end impact and soundstage transparency while preserving critical midrange neutrality.

90mm planar magnetic drivers

At its core, the MM-520 utilizes 90mm planar magnetic drivers featuring Ultra-Thin Uniforce™ diaphragms and Fazor™ phase management. This advanced architecture ensures mastering-grade precision, pinpoint spatial imaging, and ultra-low distortion (under 0.1% THD) across an expansive 5Hz to 50kHz range. The result is a clinical monitoring tool that eliminates low-end guesswork in any environment.

The SLAM™ Technology Advantage

The defining breakthrough of the MM-520 is the integrated Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator (SLAM™). This system optimizes internal air pressure within the open-back earcups to maximize driver linearity. The result is a visceral yet highly accurate low-frequency impact and enhanced soundstage transparency, all without muddying the critical mid-range.

Massive 90mm Planar Magnetic Drivers

At the core of its clinical performance are large 90mm planar magnetic drivers utilizing Ultra-Thin Uniforce™ diaphragms and a Fluxor™ Neodymium N50 magnet array. These drivers respond instantaneously to complex transients. Paired with Fazor™ phase management, the MM-520 achieves an ultra-low distortion rating (<0.1% THD), ensuring uncoloured, precise sound reproduction.

Premium Comfort for Marathon Sessions

Built to fade into the background during grueling sessions, the MM-520 features upgraded memory foam earpads that distribute weight evenly and minimize fatigue. Additionally, a new magnetic attachment system allows for effortless earpad replacement and cleaning, extending the longevity of your headset through years of daily commercial use.

Versatile Driveability for Modern Workflows

With a low impedance of 18 ohms and high sensitivity, the MM-520 fluidly adapts to any modern workflow. Whether you are plugged into a high-end studio console, a portable audio interface, or directly into a laptop while on the move, these headphones deliver consistent, full-scale performance without the need for a dedicated amplifier.

Engineered Alongside Manny Marroquin

Developed in partnership with 18-time Grammy-winning mix engineer Manny Marroquin, the MM-520 is built for demanding studio environments. Meticulously voiced for flawless mix translation, it ensures your work sounds consistent on car stereos, club PAs, and consumer headphones alike—eliminating low-end guesswork so you can deliver final bounces with absolute confidence.
