We have teamed up with the clever folks from Meze Audio to bring you an exciting competition and a chance to win a set of 109 PRO open-backed headphones worth £769!
Alan Sircom reviewed these in hi-fi+ issue #213 where he wrote, “The 109 PRO is the current top of Meze’s dynamic driver line. It’s also the first dynamic driver headphone from Meze to feature an open-backed construction. Meze didn’t just use the same 40mm drive unit found in the two current 99 models. It went the harder route, with a ‘clean sheet’ 50mm dynamic diaphragm. This unit features a lazy-W-shaped dome driver surrounded by a torus of Beryllium-coated semicrystalline polymer measuring just 22 microns. This veined torus helps damp resonance in the driver itself, aided by a copper-zinc alloy stabilizing ring around its outside. This all sits in a CNC milled aluminium frame, which also houses the neodymium magnets.”
He went on to say, “This is an articulate, lithe-sounding headphone, completely free from stinging highs.”
He concluded the review by saying, “I could wear these headphones for hours at a time, thanks to both the easy way they hang on your head and the warm, inviting sound of the headphones themselves. These are not the headphones for the casual listener. They are for those who like to drink deep from their pool of music.”
