Meze 99 Classics Discussion + Impressions Thread
Agreed.. bass head here and the classics are one of the best for an audiophile headphone if you love that bass. Tried the OG pad and preferred the “new” pads they ship with currently. A silver litz weave cable brought in a little more top end and sparkle for me but these things are great out of...- Dutch1Schaefer

Sweet! I’m into home audio as well, just trying to see if there is any interest in getting together. -

I’m glad that you found what works for you Fotis, and your happy with the sound with the pad swap! These are a great set of cans for the price I’m sure you’ll get many good years out of them! I felt the silver cable helped the sound tighten up and add a little sparkle to the highs but ymmv. I...- Dutch1Schaefer

She’s right.. these are nowhere like a beats headphone in any way shape or form. I myself like the pads that came with them, I bought the “smalls” and didn’t like them. You’d have to just experiment if you don’t like the sound. It doesn’t make night and day differences or a huge drastic...- Dutch1Schaefer

Anyone know where to demo headphones with online retailers?
I’m actually in US, the Meze 99c are great for the price I love mine, these scale really well with cable upgrade. Thanks for your response.- Dutch1Schaefer

Trying to find some retailers that will let you put down a security deposit to demo and try some headphones out for a week or 2 and return them and get your deposit back, Is that even a thing? Thanks- Dutch1Schaefer

Swapped the pads to the “smalls” seems to bring out the treble frequencies a litter more? Maybe cuts the bass frequencies a little as well to my ears. I think I prefer the larger pads but will rock these for a week or so then switch back. These headphones have me seriously happy, from what I’ve...- Dutch1Schaefer

Yeah to my ears that’s what I’m hearing the soundstage opened up to me as well. I’m not a pro or claim to be I have limited experience with gear. Someone else may say 10-20% this stuff is so subjective.- Dutch1Schaefer

It’s not true balanced ifi uses “s balanced tech” you can read up on it from their site, so I purchased trrs terminated to utilize the s balanced feature with my dac/amp. You can have it terminated however you want so I believe it will be balanced. You can pay more and get genuine meze cables or...- Dutch1Schaefer

I’m very shocked at the improvement, actually have been listening for 3hrs lol. I did pick up the “small” pads that are suppose to be the same if not very similar to the OG pads that use to come w the classics. But have not changed them yet I will need to do that tomorrow and see what I think.- Dutch1Schaefer

Just received some litz 8 weave 99% silver cables for the 99 classics and WOW! To my ears I’m perceiving 30-40% better overall sound. The bass has tightened up and gained more control while the higher frequencies are more pronounced. I’m a noob with describing what I’m hearing and might not be...- Dutch1Schaefer
