Product Description: 

Romanian manufacturer Meze Audio, celebrated for timeless craftsmanship and emotionally engaging sound, introduces STRADA—a new reference in closed-back dynamic headphones. Blending tonal accuracy with immersive musical intimacy, STRADA is engineered for listeners who value a rich, enveloping presentation paired with meticulous design and premium materials.

Designed to reveal music with effortless detail and emotional depth, STRADA delivers a cohesive acoustic experience where texture, dynamics, and nuance unfold naturally. Excellent noise isolation, realistic spatial imaging, and a precisely tuned driver system create a private sonic environment ideal for extended listening sessions, whether at home or on the move.

Impactful, Clear Sound

STRADA’s sound signature is defined by balance, control, and precision.

• Deep, articulate bass: A subtle low-frequency lift adds impact and warmth without obscuring detail.

• Neutral, transparent midrange: Vocals and instruments are presented with lifelike timbre and clean separation.

• Smooth, extended treble: High frequencies reveal fine textures and spatial cues while remaining refined and fatigue-free.

The result is a highly resolving yet emotionally engaging presentation suited to both relaxed listening and critical evaluation.

Closed-Back Performance, Refined Design

Drawing inspiration from the acclaimed LIRIC chassis, STRADA features a re-engineered structure optimized for dynamic driver performance. Each pair is hand-assembled from carefully selected materials and shaped for a natural, adaptable fit.

Lightweight, versatile, and exceptionally comfortable, STRADA is designed to disappear during hours of uninterrupted listening.

An Advanced Dynamic Driver

At the core of STRADA is a dynamic driver originally developed for the 109 PRO, now retuned specifically for closed-back operation. Every element is engineered to maximize clarity, speed, and long-term reliability.

The dome is formed from a carbon-fiber-reinforced cellulose composite, delivering excellent high-frequency resolution with minimal distortion. Surrounding it, a semicrystalline polymer torus is coated with beryllium using Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), increasing stiffness, durability, and transient response. Precision-cut 45.5° grooves enhance control, while a copper-zinc alloy stabilizer encircles the membrane to absorb micro-vibrations and further reduce distortion.

Features & Craftsmanship

• Magnetic ear pads: A seamless magnetic attachment system enables quick, effortless pad changes while preserving an optimal seal.

• Macassar ebony ear cups: Dense, visually striking hardwood with deep brown tones and golden-brown striations ensures every pair is uniquely beautiful.

• Lightweight, long-term comfort: A carefully engineered frame and driver system minimize weight for fatigue-free listening.

• Soft-padded headband: Symmetrically arranged cushions distribute pressure evenly, promote airflow, and reduce heat buildup.

• Refined finish: The magnesium frame is hand-painted in a deep green with a subtle metallic sheen, built up in four layers to reflect both modern design and human craftsmanship.

Built for Generations

STRADA is designed to be enjoyed not just today, but for decades to come. A fully serviceable construction, premium materials, and carefully selected components reflect a commitment to sustainability through longevity—creating a headphone meant to be cherished and maintained over time.
