    Signature Sound Quality with Cutting Edge Style

    A fresh take on the 99 series for the uptown audiophile, the 99 Neo headphone brings together Meze Audio’s signature sound quality with cutting edge style. Feast your eyes on coal black textured earcups. Caress the butter soft ear pads. Enjoy crisp, clean sound – natural, balanced, undistorted. This is the contemporary hi-fi headphone to fall in love with.

    The sound of the 99 Neo is crisp and clear, offering undistorted and balanced sound hour after hour, thanks to nicely designed drivers with 40mm transducers, high quality ear cups and ear pads, and exceptional ergonomics.

    "A Definite Recommendation"

    "I cannot hide my joy listening to the Meze 99 Neo, and hope it will be contagious," reports Scott Burnside, audiophileon.com March 18, 2018. "Meze achieves a masterpiece of design here."

    "The Neo 99 is a great headphone and value-wise I think it is definitely worth considering if you were looking at the Classics but didn't quite have the funds," notes Scott Burnside, audiophileon.com March 18, 2018. "They managed to bring the price down and did so without sacrificing what makes Meze headphones great. Hats off once again and a definite recommendation from us to buy!"

    Effortless Comfort

    The 99 Neo features a self-adjusting headband and soft, cushioned ear pads that cradle your head. The stamped manganese spring steel headband delivers even pressure across your head, for any head size. The ear pads are crafted of medium density memory foam, which feature sound isolation, inviting you to get lost in your music for hours. Find your bliss in warm, natural/balanced sound.

    Fully Serviceable

    Just like Meze Audio's Classics headphone series, the 99 Neo strives for precision in every component used in its construction. Neo features premium materials all the way, including cast zinc alloy hardware with electroplated coating, a stamped manganese spring steel headband, medium density memory foam ear pads and soft PU leather ear pad covers. Because the Neo shares the DNA of the Classics, the Neo is serviceable if any parts ever need to be replaced.

    A Fine-Quality Cable, Too

    The included detachable cable for the 99 Neo is special, too, consisting of threaded 1.5mm connections on one end, a 3.5mm plug on the other end, and premium signal conductors made from OFC copper, a Kevlar jacket, and a built-in mic/remote.

    Included with the headphone is a hard EVA carrying case, cable pouch, and 6.3mm gold-plated jack adapter.

    "I cannot hide my joy listening to the Meze 99 Neo, and hope it will be contagious, but sometime passion about musicality is something more subjective than about technicalities. I consider the Neo very generous with lots of music styles, giving extra body to cello or warming voice of my favorite signer with great presence and wideness. As a listener with diversified tastes, I always struggle to find the right all arounder, and that even more with closed back, it will either sound good for classical or electronic. The Neo does the trick for both because of extra mid bass."

    "What we have here is essentially a Meze Classic lite. You get a lot of the great features that you get from the original model just at a cheaper price. I know many people will be happy for a similar sounding headphone as the Classics but with a bit more low-end grunt. I am one of those people. The Neo 99 is a great headphone and value wise I think it is definitely worth considering if you were looking at the Classics but didn't quite have the funds. They managed to bring the price down and did so without sacrificing what makes Meze headphones great. Hats off once again and a definite recommendation from us to buy!"
