Meze 99 Classics Walnut Silver Headphones (Silver & Black)

Product Information

I liked that they are dual entry cables (one each to the left and right earcups), as I feel this gives a better balance and overall aesthetic look.

I have owned two high-end, audio salons, I’ve written for Positive Feedback as an Associate Editor, and I’ve written over 50 reviews for AudioKeyReviews. The original and subsequent replacement earpads have rotted and fallen apart because of the use of pleather in their construction. Imaging and placement is well done and it makes for a relaxed sound that is easy to dissect what is going onstage. Kandoo is a Trading Style of Switcha Limited which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, Firm Registration Number: 828963 for Credit Broking and Insurance Distribution. You get what you pay for, and the Meze 99 Classics is a gorgeous pair of headphones with good sound to match.I did find that the pads were a little shallow and can be uncomfortable after 30-45 minutes of listening. I hate getting carried away with hype, but I will admit I do enjoy the Meze Audio 99 Classics more than my conservative values should really allow me. Brainwavz and Status Audio are two I can think of off the top of my head, and they still provide great value to the consumer without trying to sell under a pretense.

Each cup is crafted initially on a CNC machine and then finished and polished by hand with Meze claiming each set takes approximately 45 hours to complete. Artists sound slightly in front of you, displaying medium width and depth of equal scale, which is excellent for closed-back headphones.The Treble is well extended with good overall details and a smoothed presentation, there was no harshness, and it has decent air and sparkle.

No interest is payable on any payments made within the deferral period however interest will apply from day 1 once the deferral period ends. Our aim is to change the perception of headphones as technical devices or as cheap plastic accessories and create a mature product to fall in love with. Their respective bass responses were very close to being a match, though the Sonorous III may have gone just a wee bit deeper.Inside you get a semi-stiffened contoured zipper case for carrying the headphones as well as a little NAD-inspired zipper round bag inside for holding your accessories between the headphones when on the go. With the ov21, bass will sound more pronounced than it appears in the chart above due to a steep under-emphasis in the mids. The Meze 99 Classic is a beautiful walnut wood headphone that can be purchased with either gold or silver accents, the ones we will be reviewing today are the walnut silver.
