Resolve had his impressions posted a while back, sounds like proceed with caution to me.

Resolve says it "Places squarely in between the X and 5" which I do not interpret as "proceed with caution".Resolve had his impressions posted a while back, sounds like proceed with caution to me.
Impressions from CanJam London 2022 Impressions Thread don't sound overly excited either.Still midrangey, still chilled out in the treble, and very much in line with Audeze’s ‘new’ sound signature, where they’re a lot more clarity-focused than the previous models. If you’re expecting it to be a smaller and lighter LCD-X, I think the tonality is different enough that you may even be disappointed. But for those wanting more clarity - where the LCD-X is a bit withdrawn, the MM500 delivers. Make no mistake though, the X has the more forward upper treble, so there’s a sense in which the mm500 is less ‘exciting’.
Why the quotation marks around "review". I may be naïve to context. Does this site / reviewer have a bias or conflict of interest?And another "review"

The review from majorhifi went into pretty good depth about the sound of the mm-500, so not sure what else you are looking for in a review. This seems like a pretty descriptive review to me.Reviewer could say "it's headphones", could be just as useful.
It's not a proper in depth quality review, same junk as the one from majorhifi.
I'm still waiting for graphs and a review from one of the eight or nine reviewers that I trust for having good ears. Major retailers are already selling and shipping units so I'm shocked that we still don't have reviews and graphs. Not sure if that's a red flag or if Audeze just didn't send out any review units for some reason. I'm still excited and some of the early CanJam and NAMM impressions have me curious. My local shop won't be getting any units for a demo until much later in the year so it'll have to be a blind buy for me.
