    Meze was up at AXPONA this year and I asked them what was different about the Noirs than the Classics. As soon as I asked the question a big grin spead across the guys face and he said, “Literally nothing at all.” They proceeded to tell me that the only changes are cosmetic and that the cups are the same wood just a different stain. Same drivers, same build, same pads, plus you get the extra pads all for $100 less.

      It's a pretty common strategy. They sold a ton of the originals which recouped all of their R&D costs and made their profit margin wider than it needed to be, so they rebrand it slightly and drop the price so a ton of people will buy them and use that money to develop whatever is coming next.

    These might be the perfect starter headphones for a lot of people. I'm several open-backs, dacs, amps, planars, and iems in and, if someone handed me these day one, it would be hard for me to move onto to something more expensive. They are cool looking, easy to drive (with a phone I have room to spare), they just sound really fun, and the price is right.

    Totally agree with the "they relax you" comment about these calming you down after work. I actually use these at work so that they can help protect me from the mayhem. Great headphones. I would pay the $200 just for the build quality and the case, but they sound great and work exceptionally with lower powered devices. I figured these were better to have at work than a more expensive pair of Audez because you never know if someone might walk off with them. I'm now thinking I need something else that I don't love as much as these and bring them home. Love them. Buy a pair.

      One more note is that these work great for pad rolling as they ATH-M50X pads out there will fit fine if you want them to be memory foam and further from your ears than the stock pads. Currently using them with Brainwavez HM5 hybrids, and they sound fantastic to me.

  • @daviewavie112
    @daviewavie112 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    the dark voice is an OTL amp, those are high output impedance and match well with high impedance headphones like the hd6xx hd600 etc. (both 300ohm headphones). the 99 noir is 32ohm, and pairs well with amps that are low output impedance. if you want tubes youd be better off with a hybrid tube amp (tube pre with solidstate power/output section). amps like the little dot 1+ etc. or a solid state amp.

    The second pair of pads are not the same pads. The second pair are the “OG” pads which are supposed to simulate the pads that were on the Classics before Meze changed the pads halfway through the product cycle. The other pads change the sound a good bit.

    I have both the H6 and now these Noirs and damn I can't decide which one I want to crown as my office headphone! The H6 sounds more transparent and pure, detailed and gives me a better idea of how a recording is supposed to sound, slightly better imaging and space imo but they also sound thinner, especially in the mids, with not as much punch or power. Light, but in a good way. These on the other hand are warm as you mentioned, strong bass (a little too much sometimes) that does bleed into the mids a little (some mid-lower note acoustic guitars, keyboards sound deeper than they should, like they fall into the bass region when they shouldn't), a little muddy, not quite as detailed across the board but easier to hear some bass and low mid details (vocal undertones, piano pedals), vocals sound quite a bit better on the Noir, slightly easier treble, more dynamic and powerful and natural. Thick and full, also in a good way. I'd describe it like the Noir are "analog" and the H6 "digital", both are great!
    By the way, the extra pads are different, they are smaller and they change the sound. I put those on as soon as I got the Noir as I read they reduced the bass a bit but I still need to try the default, larger pads

    I've had these for a few years now. Just replaced the original pads with BrainWavz leather and memory foam ones as the originals were starting to get gross.
    Loved them in stock condition, love them even more with the new pads. I run them out of an iFi ZenDac and it rules.

    I don't always hear the same stuff or want a bass bump like zeos, but this is very accurate. To me it sounds like you're listening to music in a big stone church. They're comfy. They're fairly light. They're a nap on a Sunday afternoon packaged just for your ears. They're easy to drive, easy to listen to and they sound very much like the t50 fostex (I forget the whole name). If you want the fostex but don't want extra equipment to drive them, these are it.

      Please help; What do you think I should choose between Meze 99's, beyerdynamic 770's, sennheiser 280 pros, akg 361 or Sivga 006 ? Feel free to recommend any other pair.. I need closed back headphones mainly for playing with a digital piano (Korg sv2 to be precise). I'm wondering if the Sennheisers and beyerdynamic might be "too flat" for my liking and meybe the Meze are more enjoyable than the akg 361 and sivga 006 I've heard great things about. What i think I need is good imaging and sound stage. I don't want any smudging of the sounds so high detail.. tho I want the headphones to have a pleasant sound so I can play for long.. is that contradicting? Idk.

    idk how much different than the 99 neo's these are, but i had the neo's and i was a little disappointed tbh. they sounded kinda like beats to me lol a lot of bass that bleeds and the mids/highs were just ok with a big lack of detail.

    Hey been seeing your reviews lately and I love your channel. So all I have now are the M50x and a fiio q1 amp. Which drop do you think should I get meze 99 noir, hd6xx, he4xx or fostex t-xo 2? My brother is flying down from the USA and your input would help a lot. Thanks.

    MassDrop is shipping these with newer pads that are supposed to be replicas or near replicas of the original (old) pads which first went out with the original 99 Classics.... not sure if you got those (which are a tiny bit smaller than the installed pads) or really received 2 sets of the same. But if the former, I'd love to see a update/comparison. Another reviewer didn't like the extras at all, though he heard them do pretty much the opposite of what MassDrop is telling us is the intention....
