Product Description:

A Classic Fit For Today

The Meze 99 Classics 2nd Gen celebrates a decade of design excellence, preserving the character and charm that made the original a benchmark in headphone craftsmanship. Every enhancement is carefully chosen to improve comfort, functionality, and acoustic refinement while maintaining the unmistakable 99 aesthetic and sound signature.

2nd Gen

The instantly recognizable look and feel of the 99 Classics remain intact—the magnetic warmth, timeless design, and premium material selection endure. However, subtle refinements reveal themselves in both the tactile experience and the listening performance, creating a modern interpretation of a classic.

Walnut Wood Ear Cups

Each ear cup is precision CNC-machined from solid walnut, then hand-finished, stained, and polished to perfection. The result is a lightweight yet robust structure that enhances resonance characteristics while delivering Meze’s signature organic sound.

Two Tonalities

For listeners who prefer the original voicing, Meze includes a pair of acoustic absorbers that shift the balance toward a warmer tonal signature—allowing for easy personalization of the listening experience.

Self-Adjustable Headband

A vertically self-adjusting vegan leather headband combines with a wide spring-steel support band to provide even pressure distribution and enduring comfort—one of the defining features that earned the 99 Classics their reputation.

Detachable Ear Pads

Constructed from medium-density foam and soft vegan leather, the redesigned ear pads now utilize a six-clip attachment system for simple installation or replacement. This ensures both comfort and serviceability for years of use.

Sustainable By Design

Meze’s commitment to longevity continues in the 2nd Gen model. Every component—from the ear cups to the headband, cables, and drivers—can be replaced or repaired. The result is a headphone designed to stand the test of time, both sonically and structurally.
