Edit:
I'm sure MM-500 sounds better than MM-100 considering the price.
FR is different, cable is different, headband looks different in the pictures.
And the price difference is huge in comparison with MM-500
In my first reply I was trying to make a joke, unsuccessful apparently. There's a wink after my answer.
I guess you'll have to wait for reviews.
