1 day ago · Meze’s 109 Pro is one of the best open-back headphones below a thousand dollars. Now they’ve added a more price-conscious option that will act as a good entry-level to the brand. A $400 price tag might still be a big ask, but it’s definitely more obtainable, and a good way to jump head-first into audiophile headphones without breaking the ...

What a difference a few years make. Some time ago, I got a set of the original Meze earbuds in and proceeded to rip them a new one. Essentially, Meze took an earphone that cost a few dollars from OEM stock, stuck some Meze branding on, and claimed the design as their own. They then charged people an arm and a leg for what was one of the worst sound...
For the Meze 99 Classic headphones sell at, they do have some very nice presentation and packaging. Right from the start, they offer a very classy experience. You have the product image on the front side, and honestly, who can’t say this isn’t a beautiful headphone? They also make big mention of the awards they have won since the release of the Cla...
Straight up, these are some seriously stunning-looking headphones. I have to salute whoever came up with this design from an aesthetical standpoint alone; they are one of the best-looking headphones I have tried to date. It’s a great modern take on a classic design and has enough sleek touches to make the 99 looks elegant and classy. The company of...
Build quality is excellent throughout, and I would be struggling to find something I didn’t like about them. For such lightweight headphones, they don’t in any way feel cheap or like shortcuts have been taken. The metal headband is reinforced with gold-colored metal support connecting the bars, and that also holds the elastic for the headband. Not ...
Comfort, as I alluded to above, is excellent. Really for a home Hifi style headphone, the Meze 99 Classics are right up there with some of the comfiest closed-back headphones I have ever worn. The combination of large diameter earcups, excellent padding, and a self-adjusting headband makes them a pleasure to wear around the house or office. The mos...
Isolation is not great.They offer very little protection from external noise, and as such, they aren’t the best for use in noisy environments. This is surprising for a closed-back headphone, but then again, if Meze had stuffed the 99 full of sound dampening insulation, it could have affected the wonderful sound they emit. Home use is where they wil...
Sound quality is by far and away from the stand-out feature of the Meze 99 Classics. This is a seriously good-sounding headphone that leaves you wanting to keep listening to the next track. It’s not often that I sit with my DAP thinking of songs to play because I want to see how the 99 presents them. It’s a highly engaging sound that becomes very i...
Honestly, I can’t stress how much I thought I would never review another Meze product. I didn’t have that desire to jump back in, but I am extremely pleased to give them another chance. The Meze 99 Classics, for the price and beyond, are simply wonderful headphones that really do perform up to there with much more expensive headphones. A combinatio...

While there are areas that we would like to see improved there is no denying that these are charming company. If you are after headphones at this high-end level then these Meze models deserve serious consideration. SCORES. Sound 4; Build 5; Comfort 5; MORE:
May 3, 2021 · The 99 Classics are no slouches either, their crispness up top helping them sound balanced and snappy. We would, however, trade some of their smoothness and fluidity for a touch more bite. They tend to gloss over the rhythmic punch and enthusiasm of more upbeat tracks, stopping just short of a wholeheartedly good time.
