Slide on a Pair of Meze 99 Classics 2nd Generation Headphones and Experience Natural, Neutral, Balanced Sound That Stands at the Forefront of the Sub-$500 Price Class in Closed-Back 'Phones

Ten years after Meze 99 Classics redefined the headphones field in their price class, the iconic design comes back for an encore in the form of 99 Classics 2nd Generation. Borrowing the elegant aesthetics of the original, these over-ear ‘phones tout re-engineered hardware, finely balanced tuning, and extra accessories to help original adopters and newcomers enjoy a new threshold of performance and comfort in the sub-$500 bracket. 

Hand-assembled with walnut wood ear cups, zinc alloy hardware, and a self-adjusting headband, 99 Classics 2nd Gen. play with a balanced, neutral, and natural signature that begets outstanding separation, imaging, and soundstaging. Enhanced acoustic sealing for superb isolation across key junction points pays dividends in the form of distraction-free listening. Acoustic absorbers that create warm tones, clip-in memory-foam ear pads, and wide input sockets further elevate the appeal and practicality of  99 Classics 2nd Gen.

Anchored by 40mm dynamic drivers, 99 Classics 2nd Gen. sports a 16-ohm impedance and weighs just 10.23 ounces. A dual-twisted Kevlar-wrapped OFC cable, hard carrying pouch, cable pouch, and two adapters come with every pair. An ergonomic two-axis swivel system and absence of any glue in the build lend to classy looks that are on par with the sumptuous sonics you’ll enjoy every time you slip 99 Classics 2nd Gen. on your head.
