I use the KOSS SB45, it has the same electret element as in the Yamaha. In fact it is almost identical to the Yamaha, but uses silver ear cups. I understand some of the components used in the Yamaha are made by Koss…perhaps the CM500 is made in the Koss factory, but labeled Yamaha ? Terrific RX and TX audio with my KX3 and Flex rigs using my Koss SB45 - make sure you get the SB45 (electret) and not the SB40 (dynamic)

Any experience out there? My much used CM500 are starting to shed the leatherette covering and the foam inside the cavities is wearing away. CM500 can be rather difficult to source.
