Audeze MM-100 Professional Open-Back Headphones, Planar Magentic, Wired

These are OUTSTANDING HEADPHONES! Especially for mixing music. The sound stage is unbelievable accurate. I can highly recommend buying these headphones. And yes very comfortable to wear.

Worst over ear headphones I’ve ever tried. I’ve always wanted an Audeze headphone. I ordered these and they were all I thought about. I got the box, popped it open… not bad. I dislike the headband. You can’t adjust it very much. Headphones that are way cheaper do that much better. It resembles the Maxwell which is a gamer set. Thumbs down. They were a bit heavy, but not in an uncomfortable way, but that circular A grill is incredible. It looks so smooth and modern. It’s definitely an Audeze in terms of looks. That tan/grey finish is unforgettable as well. They seem built well enough to take falls, they worked just fine, and the cord was a decent length for most people. Speaking of, Audeze always has the dual channel cups with that sick wire they ship with their more expensive variants. This one has dual 3.5 mm inputs for the headphones, but you only plug the cable in one side? You mean I can’t use a balanced cable with this one? Who thought that was a good idea? Who hurt you? Just give me my dual inputs man! I like that. Why design it to be plugged in on either side? This really triggered me. So I got over it and plugged it in my dac and boy the sound…I couldn’t wait to try the famous Audeze house bass. It’s not here. What about the crisp airy tonality that planars are known for? Not here. Eq makes it shouty, or dull. There is no in between. It’s very mid forward but in the dullest way possible. It’s the only time I received a pair of cans, and put in to return them the same day. 8 hours was spent getting no tone whatsoever. It was a bad experience from a brand I’d always wanted. I’m hesitant to give them a try again in the future. At this price you have sooooo many better options. I would never even think about thinking of recommending this one. Simply dreadful. I’d rather listen to cheese. The cups look awesome. That’s it. Bad Audeze, bad.

Very strange headphones. First I'll talk about why I returned them. They have a very strange adjustment system with little buttons instead of just being able to adjust perfectly to the size of your head you have to make quarter inch adjustments on either the left or right. The problem is with my particular head even one adjustment took them from too big to too small making them rub either the top or bottom of my ear making them very uncomfortable. I was able to put a little padding under my head to get them to go up a little bit which made them fit perfectly but I don't feel like I should have to have a paper towel on top of my head when I listen to music to make my headphones fit properly. Moving on to the sound I thought they were pretty awesome. Very crisp and clear. The only real complaint is that they were very kind of flat sounding and not very Dynamic and fun to listen with. Super super analytical. The Sound Stage was incredibly disappointing as well it was very three point sound coming from left Center and right and all very much in your head and doesn't seem to expand much Beyond. This was incredibly disappointing just from reading how realistic and huge Audeze headphones usually sound. I may have to upgrade to LCD3x with better adjustments to see how those sounds but for now I think my sundara's were a little more what I was looking for sound wise with a little more playfulness with all that detail still there and a little more holographic sound so to speak.

Ok let me start by saying I’m listening to music as I write this review.. These are studio tuned so out of the box they sound very good but with EQ sound incredible for music listening and not just for mixing/ mastering. I have owned LCD3’s in the past but eventually sold them because of their darker upper treble. I loved the soundstage and bass but to my ears they lacked life. Enter the much lower priced MM100. I did a lot of research about their strengths and weaknesses and studied their frequency response graph. What I saw were several easy fixes. These now go head to head with my Sennheiser HD 800 cans. Super fast and resolving, no distortion after EQ with deep articulate bass and smooth highs. The midrange was always good but now even better. In my opinion outside of soundstage size I prefer them to the much pricier LCD3. Yes the only caveat is a very average sized soundstage compared to over $1000.00 open backs however the sound signature punches WAY ABOVE their price. They can sound great with almost all music genres. I think you can tell I highly recommend the MM100 with EQ.. would still consider them without given their technical merits.Anyone interested in my settings just ask.

These headphones does it all very well balanced , good bass have the lcd x and for 400 better definition and plenty of it flat set no eq Audeze ea well , the rest is perfect , the fit is comfort love the carry bag … best. Value sound grate float my boat . Use mojo 2 qedlx ,

I really enjoy the reference style sound, came from HD6XX and AKG K712 Pro's. My first planar magnetic. Being driven by a Schiit Hel+ sounds incredible for music, movies and almost a cheat code for FPS games. I am able to hear people much further away than before and with more accuracy.

Love the sound the bass is so big and tight .I got a great mix just hsing this and the app reveal

I have received a defective headphones. No sound at all.
