Meze 99 Classics Walnut Silver Headphones (Silver & Black)

Product Information

There is an openness, generally, associated with far more costly audio equipment and a naturalness that owes itself to the analog old school. Lee herself was filled with energy and vivacity, exuding emotion though the bending of her vocal chords which were easily ‘seen’ by the ear. Come with a sturdy hard case (headphones fit in even when the cable is attached) that looks good and is very protective. And so it is here with the Meze 99 Classics and its kith and kin the Meze Empyrean Product of the Year 2020. Put them on, sit back, and enjoy your favorite sound of plucked strings, upbeat grooves or thumping beats while still looking classy.

This review of the 99 Classics is long overdue, but I'm glad I finally got to check a set-out and see what they could do. 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 Classics are over-the-ear headphones with a unique-looking design and a growing reputation for being an affordable set of audiophile-focused cans.The pads are a bit on the smaller side but I have larger than avg ears and never had any comfort issue even with my glasses on as the pads are super soft non sweat prone.

I'd not heard of Meze Audio before, but on the basis of these headphones I'd happily consider them again. And most important of all, the Meze 99 Classics will perform its magic with smartphones, computers, DAC-dongles, DAC/Amps, DAPs, etc.We aimed for perfection in every component we designed: CNC-carved wood ear cups, cast zinc alloy hardware with electroplated coating, stamped manganese spring steel headband, memory foam and soft PU leather are the materials your hands and eyes will get to enjoy. It’s a great modern take on a classic design and has enough sleek touches to make the 99 look elegant and classy. If you’re looking for parametric filters, you’re going to have a rough time boosting the underemphasis between 1-3kHz, as it will require some hefty gain close to the cuts you’ll be making. I have seen lots of comments to that effect and these headphones are in need of some pad swapping, in my view. Further, there is nuance of tone/timbre, and transparency that come together to flesh out not only detail but emotion as well.

Well, I did a quick spin through several of the“Ten Songs That Will Blow Your Speakers (Yahoo)” lists to see if the 99 Classics could remain unblown, up to the task, and boomy-free. The walnut wood earcups, soft earpads and the spring steel headband will make the 99 Classics an heirloom rather than just a pair of headphones. While the mic transmits some background noise in our office and street simulations, its performance outdoes many embedded Bluetooth mic systems. br>
Supplied with a full range of accessories
Not content with award-winning sound and style, the 99 Classics come with a class-leading range of accessories. Hallmarks of this kind of tuning include emphasized bass, and a bit of added emphasis in the highs between 4-10kHz.It’s less good for commuters, but mainly because smartphones don’t often have headphone jacks nowadays.
