Audeze Replacement Earpads for MM-500
Earpad replacements for the MM-500 headphones.
Comes in a pair.
-Are the ear openings as large as on the LCD-5, or has there been a sacrifice of ear space to make way for a more traditionally shaped pad?
The earpads of the MM-500 are similar in design to our reference series earpads. The MM-500 earpads do not feature the sloped design of the LCD-5, which was a choice to achieve our desired goals for frequency response and comfort on this product. The actual dimensions of the ear opening are very similar to our standard LCD earpads, 67mm x 49mm at their widest points, and 26-34mm deep.
-Is there a benefit to using the LCD-5 ear pads vs MM500 pad outside of comfort and shape difference?
Earpads can have a remarkable impact on perceived sound. When designing the MM-500, we felt that having full sized earpads was a more appropriate method than the sloped earpads found in the LCD-5, and the headphones were tuned with these types of earpads in mind. Changing out the earpads with the sloped LCD-5 earpads will change the feel and comfort of the headphones, but more importantly, it will alter how they sound and their tuning and is not recommended.
