This is the Meze 99 Classics V2 link—the headphone I reviewed here after the 10-year anniversary of the original. At $349, it’s engineered insanely well, more resolving than the V1, and it gives you tuning filters so you can either embrace the newer neutral-bright energy or step back toward the warmer, thicker old-school vibe.
Pros
- +Excellent build quality and comfort (light, easy all-day wear)
- +Cleaner, more resolving sound than the original 99 Classics
- +Includes tuning filters to shift toward the older warmer tuning
- +Easy to drive and scales with better gear
Cons
- -Upper mids/treble can be fatiguing for some listeners (notably around ~6k)
- -Stock tuning may be too energetic if you prefer a darker, smoother balance
