Amazon prime day has the classics for $247 both color options, great deal!!
I feel ya. These are the 1st headphones I discovered that always kept me engaged, plus the added fun factor. Great for rockAfter a few days listening to these headphones I’m in love! For the price paid, I’m beyond satisfied. I’m no high end audiophile guy that wants “neutral” “flat” sounding headphones, not hating on those who are or like those kind of headphones. I had a budget and found something special in that budget. Musical tastes are mainly in the “rock” genres but find these are great for acoustic stuff as well. These are fun, engaging and hit the mark for me in every way. I have them paired up with a ifi nano bl atm, through tidal hifi I’m hearing things in favorite tracks I’ve never heard before. They are clear, and the bass is perfect to my ears. Just wanted to drop my .2
Take this w a grain of salt since I don’t have allot of experience with dac/amps but I really like my ifi nano black label. There is a definite upgrade in sound quality vs my smartphone. I’d say 45-50% “better” sounding when you AB with and without. Also at $189 the price is fair and the value is there imo. The classics are sensitive and impedance is low there’s allot of options out there.Which DAC/amps pair well with the 99 classics(desktop or mobile)? Looking to upgrade my Apple dongle.
I have a focal spirit classic and for sure the 99c is far better. But need little changes to become better such as the premium Meze cable and pads.And do you believe meze classic is far superior than focal spirit pro?
Good to hear you say that. I was leaning towards ifi. Specifically a zen DAC v2. But also considering a Schiit stack with vali2+.Take this w a grain of salt since I don’t have allot of experience with dac/amps but I really like my ifi nano black label.

how is about soundstage and imaging vs Focal classic,?I have a focal spirit classic and for sure the 99c is far better. But need little changes to become better such as the premium Meze cable and pads.
I also have a Hiby new R6 and I'm very very pleased with it. Before, I used a DX160 Fidelizer advanced rom. I was in love with my DX160. But now, I gonna sell it because of the Hiby.
