A question regarding pads: are they velour, hybrid, real leather or plastic (or as some like to call them "synthetic leather").

How pissed off must an importer be to put the "Available in several months" notice next to the price 🤣

it certainly denotes a high level of annoyance

Was gonna pull the trigger on the HD600s soon, but I think I’ll wait and give these a try. Curious if they’ll pair well with the DX3 Pro+.
Wait is right.

The wait is almost over! I just got an email from Audeze that begins like this:

Ordered a Ananda Nano the same time I ordered the MM100 just noticed it's been over a month now and still no news on mm100 shipping yet lol was hoping to compare them and keep one but at this rate might have to cancel my order and just keep the nano

I doubt MM100 would sound as bright as Ananda Nano (based on how Audeze tune MM500). I think they would complement each other well.

Oof, the weight really did go up by 100g compared to teaser specs - what a shame. That was my big selling point, personally.
Why would the wait, I mean ‘weight’ suddenly go up?

Another form of, uh, inflation? Or, perhaps after getting some early feedback, the consensus was that the sound need a little more heft? "Sounds a little thin," they said?

I'm looking forwarding to hearing them soon. :L3000: ... despite the added wait and added weight. I've added at least 100g myself, perhaps it was to accommodate these?

I don't think audeze realize weight is important part of headphone spec...

I was very interested in buying mm100 when the leak said it was going to be 375g

but @ 475g? I'll pass unless it sounds fking good

imo every 100g added weight, headphone should sound at least 2x better than the equivalently priced headphone

if mm100 had 375g, my expectation would have been lower but at 475g I just don't think mm100 will sound good enough to justify the heavy weight for me

imo at 375g, my expectation for mm100 would have been sundara competitor but at 475g my expectation is he6se v2 competitor (which I doubt it)
