To be eligible for a refund, your item must be unused/unopened and in the same condition that you received it. And a transparency that liberated layers of detail, microdynamics, nuance, air, and staging cues—separation, positioning, layering. I usually don’t comment but this article has the most flashy disturbing horrendous ads I’ve ever seen around the web.

In sum the DX220 splendidly drove the 99 Classics to a higher performance level with a tonality safely ensconced in analog-like musicality, but closer, no doubt, to the neutral zone. Clamping is tight but not overly so, certainly not AKG K518DJ ear grinder levels, but is accentuated slightly by the lack of upper ear room and pressure balance on the ears as a result.

The Meze 99 Classics have a relatively low impedance (32Ω -Ohms) and a relatively high sensitivity (103dB). This is probably my fourth most favorite headphone so far followed by Final D8000,Susvara and HD650. Each wooden ear-cup of the 99 Classics is precision carved on a CNC machine and then hand finished and polished.And the duo of the Meze 99 Classics and the DragonFly Cobalt don’t miss a beat in conveying every scintilla of emotion, every word beautifully captured, as well as the air and space around both Joan Shelly and guitarist Nathan Salsburg. They have comfortable headphones and plenty of room inside to have no contact points with medium-sized ears.

Since this is the second Meze 99 review we have had on the site in the past few weeks, I thought, given the similarities between the original 99 Classics and the newer Meze 99 Neo, I would be more to the point and shorter in this review as what was said during the original review applies to almost every area of the Neos. stars: The product is only about average or even somewhat below that and somewhat flawed/flawed in some areas. Many Barry White songs will sound like the instruments were pretty much an afterthought even though they’re quite important to the piece.

These hand-finished ear-cups not only look luxurious but are also hardwearing and improve the sound quality. 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.
