Bloom's Take

Ah, the 99 Classics. A taste of luxury in a highly affordable and value-packed package. Whenever our team wants to demo a pair of headphones to someone "not into the hobby," we reach for the 99 Classics. A single song nary finishes without their eyes widening to the realization that high end audio doesn't mean high priced.

The 99 Classics feature real Walnut satin-finished wood ear cups, a self-adjustable headband, and memory foam ear pads for lasting comfort. Paired with the Boom Mic's CNC-milled Aluminum mic cover and flexible adjustable arm, this headset embodies Meze's commitment to quality. The integrated in-line controls ensure effortless adjustments, creating a harmonious and premium experience top to bottom.

Just like fingerprints, wood grain is as unique, thus making each pair of Meze Headphone a one of a kind. You will love how they feel in your hands, sturdily built and assembled with precision. Put them on, sit back, and enjoy your favorite sound of plucked strings, upbeat grooves, thumping beats, or multiplayer mayhem while still looking classy!

Exquisite Audio Synergy

The 99 Classics delivers perfect natural sound even to the pickiest of audio lovers, while Boom Mic's omnidirectional design ensures your voice is captured naturally from all angles, delivering exceptional clarity. Experience a clear, distortion-free sound, whether gaming or in a meeting.

Disclaimer: Omnidirectional microphones offer natural sound quality and improved vocal clarity, however, due to their inherent design, they are best used in quiet environments OR with noise-cancelling software.
