MEDIA REVIEWS

Blessedly, Neo is just as capable in the soundstage as the 99C, being one of the widest and deepest closed-back headphones on the market.

Overall, the differences aren’t huge. Meze 99 Neo is as much, if not more, 99 Classic as a twenty times washed Van Halen t-shirt is a Van Halen t-shirt. It should please those looking for a rougher, more tumbly listen that follows the original as closely as possible.

Once again, I fully recommend giving 99 Neo a chance, especially if you are looking for a headphone in this price bracket, as it is one of the most interesting entries you can find and you might fall in love with the sound!

The Meze 99 Neo is more than just a good sounding headphone. The look and feel of it combined with the sound provided all add up to make it an experience that’s quite unique.

Amazing Sound and Power...

..., especially in that Price Segment. I don´t get tired of using them, they are very comfortable to wear and the Soundstage is fantastic. Rich in Details and Clearness, warm Mids and exellent for Flat Mode of your EQs. Exellent Quality.

High quality

The headphones are very good. did not expect such a good quality! Proud it is a Romanian brand!

4.5/5

I've been using these cans for right about a month as of the time I'm writing this review.

They sound great and are clear, without any real muddy-ness to them, "warm" as other reviewers have said before, but not overly so.
These headphones are very easy to drive, being only 26 ohms, so they can get painfully loud even just being powered by a phone. Using my mixer, if i even dare to turn it up past 1/3 i risk hearing damage.

The construction is superb, the only thing that that causes worries being the plastic inner swivels, but I personally haven't had any issue with them, and have not found anyone complaining that they've broken, so it may just not be something to stress over.

It's a highly comfortable pair of headphones, even when being worn for 12-20 hours at a time, only comfort issue being that sometimes my ears rest up against the inner part of the ear cup, which isn't the most comfortable, but it can be resolved by just re-seating the headphones on my head. Would be better if the cushions would be ever so slightly thicker, but oh well, it's not a major issue.

The accessories are good, the hard case especially.
However. The cable it comes with.
Just 1.5m, really? Fine, whatever.
The mic on the cable is ~ as good as on any standard smartphone. But the button on it... 1st off, it's just one single button. Only play/pause. That's it. 2nd, it feels horrible and mushy to press, sometimes needing to be pressed 2 or 3 times to register.
Overall 4.5/5, very reasonable pair.

EXCELLENT!

Man, if you're still doubting this gem, you need help.

Have been using these for more than 2+ years daily and these do deliver every single bloody time. They really do not care what you throw at them - they seem to able to handle pretty much everything decently. I have never ever been dissapointed with these in any single way, and that is truly fabulous.

Can't believe these are not used worldwide as no #1 standard. EXCELLENT!

99 NEO

I got my 99 NEOs today. The build quality of the product is very high. The headset is light and very comfortable. The sound quality is great and the box and cables are of very good quality too.
Everything considered I am very happy with my purchase. Definitely very good price/value ratio.
