Review on Meze 99 Classics Walnut Gold - Over-Ear Headphones with Mic 🎧 and Self-Adjustable Headband - Classic Wooden Closed-Back Headset for Audiophiles - Wired by Somchai Tameeyasen ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

In spite of the prohibitively high cost, not only did I purchase these headphones, but also two close friends who share my passion for music. It was not the case that people converged so heavily on a single pair of headphones in the atmosphere that I was in. In most cases, they listen to any Chinese consumer brand, such as Senhi, Sonya, Bose, and so on. Yet, I came across what I consider to be the Holy Grail in the field of headphones right here. The entire spectrum of musical styles is reproduced accurately and without any distortions. These headphones are perfect for listening to everything, from classic rock to the most cutting-edge techno music. The bass achieves the ideal balance of softness and depth while being durable and unobtrusive. The top has a moderate pinch that is not severe and is done so moderately. The stage is completely see-through and open (although this depends more on the amplifier, I use a Fiio Olympus 2 with these headphones, ideal for the money for these headphones). The whole sound picture is finished off with wooden covers, which also serve to warm up and muffle the pitch. Everyone has their own preferences, but I find that this hits the spot for me. Adjusting the sound path with an amplifier that is designed for high-impedance headphones is something that I would suggest doing for authors who do not enjoy using these headphones. Because the typical port on a laptop or smartphone does not in any way shake the devices, you will hear g. rather than candy when you plug headphones into it. Checked.

Pros
  • Superb level of craftsmanship throughout. Absolutely no plastic on the adhesive. Traditional manual assembly using cogs and gears. Everything about it is in working order, from the grade to the case to the connections. Sound - I listened to a number of different people, and this one sounds the greatest compared to the others in terms of price and quality (especially if you take it not in 2022). Even at high volumes, other people are unable to hear what is going on, and the wooden covers do not vibrate outward. The soundproofing is excellent. Maple turned out to be a very lovely wood to work with; it was warm and silky to the touch. Leatherette is of extremely excellent quality, pleasant, and soft, and it prevents sweating in the ears. The cables and connectors are also crafted with a great deal of attention and affection. Regarding the odor, I'm not sure what other authors stink of, but it seemed to me that it had a pleasant aroma of leather, wood, or vintage technology. I have no idea what other authors stink about. But most definitely not shoes made in China. This beauty is finished off (or, to be more precise, opened up) with a delightful box-box that is deserving of even a higher price point.
Cons
  • As the geometry is adjusted, the headband develops scratches. In the leatherette that surrounded the rim of my specific edition, I discovered faint signs of a light blue mold. I contacted the manufacturer, but I'm unable to assist you because they did not send any new headphones. They advised attempting to remove it with a different substance. I decided to be lazy, and it paid off.
