The Meze 99 Classics are like your favourite pair of jeans. You keep going back to them time and time again and can live with them for hours in a session. They deliver a natural sound that you can just ease into. While they have enough detail to be completely satisfying, they are not an analytical microscope into the tiniest nuances. The Meze 99 Classics excel at delivering a musically engaging experience that draws you in. If you want your music to envelop you without listener fatigue, these are your headphones. Plus, 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.
WALNUT EARCUPS
Each headphone has a beautiful satin walnut wood grain that is unique, so it is one-of-a-kind. Upon handling them, you’ll notice the attention to detail and build quality that’s meant to last.
WOOD TECHNOLOGY
The rich colors of walnut require the use of air drying, a long and expensive procedure. The process of shaping just a single pair of earcups takes up to 8 hours. The whole process of sanding, lacquering, and finishing lasts 45 days. The wooden components are carefully inspected and no flaws are permitted to reach the final assembly.
It is worth mentioning that all the wood that we use in our headphones is strictly harvested from sources with certificate of origin. That is, mature trees that have reached the end of their life cycle. This way, we are helping the environment and we're giving the old trees a chance to shine one more time in the shape of Meze headphones.
FULLY SERVICEABLE
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. No plastic here. Besides the warranty, we guarantee that the 99's are serviceable if any parts would ever need to be replaced because we built these headphones to last.
EASE OF DRIVE
The 99 Classics can be easily driven via a wide variety of sources. Whether using your phone, integrated amplifier or other devices, be assured you’ll get a great performance from the 99 Classics. Of course, they can be paired with a desktop headphone amp or dongle for portable use, but unlike many headphones, it’s certainly not a requirement to hear the musical qualities of these headphones.
