Oh this is awesome news. Honestly if all they did was make something that had some sound of the 99's with some of the ergo issues resolved (larger cups to fit better around the ears, no more too-tight self-adjusting band, no more boing-boing resonant band) I'd be jumping up and down.

If these fit better AND sound better AND are priced reasonably (more than the 99's less than the $2000+ that most companies seem to think the word "flagship" justifies ), I think they're going to sell a lot of headphones...

lets see if meze will catch the overblown price bug

I was hoping it to be in the price range of Aeon Flow, $799. I think it will be a killer in that price range as there are not much competition yet in that are.

BTW, if there will be a global tour on this someday, I'm totally in.

that's my favourite feature on the Classics!

I too am really keen to understand what the isodynamic hybrid array is. Does it involve flux capacitors?

Jokes aside. Very keen to learn more as the Classics are great!

Not sure about the flux capacitors but it could mean that it has two types of drivers "arrayed" together somehow, one planar magnetic (or ortho/iso dynamic, whatever you want to call it) and one dynamic.

I heard that the price will be much higher than $799. Bad move in my opinion for a small company like Meze but I imagine the Rinaro's drivers are very expensive..

I'm VERY stoked for this release. More excited to hear and own these versus anything else.
Meze's price to performance is really hard to beat and one of the best, right on par with the Aeon. I see NO reason why they would change their business model at this point. I have faith in you Meze to stay the course! Good luck!

@MezeTeam Any information about release date and pricing?

Very reasonable reasoning, although if it goes past $1000 mark, it will be difficult for me to find justification to buy one.

BTW, does anyone know for sure if this is open or closed headphone?

If it's closed, too expensive will make me reluctant to take it outside.

but if it is open, then it will have to compete with my home set up.

Congratulations MezeTeam for another wonderful headphone Made In Romania.
This look like a high end that will compete with similar others, if price is right then will be another massive success.

Could be a decent competitor to CA's Cascade. This should be interesting.

Love the Design...can't wait to hear more!!

Looks like a high end open back headphone to me, where in my opinion the Cascade even with it's close design is not a high end headphone.

Ah ok! Couldn't really tell by the picture...

 

[conquerator2]

Well, these are some drop dead gorgeous looking phones!

It looks like these are going to debut at CanJam NY!
