Nevertheless, its performance only underscores the manufacturer's adaptability: an attractive combination of a wide, detailed soundstage and tight, controlled bass makes the 109 PRO excellent headphones suitable for all types of music. The headphones also excel in appearance: their acoustically intelligent design is built around luxurious black walnut earcups and a slender, lightweight frame. With an elegant self-adjusting headband and velour ear pads, listening comfort is also guaranteed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeze Audio 109 Pro Over-Ear Headphones\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA truly astonishing performance. Meze Audio has successfully replicated the wearing comfort of their super-popular 99 Classics headphones in the more robust and even better-sounding, yet still very moderately priced 109 Pro headphones. The sturdy construction and precisely executed assembly are complemented by high-caliber technology. Research and development concerning materials focused on finding the perfect balance between diaphragm mass and stiffness, maximizing the headphones' acoustic capabilities. The dynamic and open-back 109 series headphones feature a new Dual Membrane Diaphragm driver, which combines Beryllium-coated polymer, cellulose-carbon fiber composite, and a copper-zinc alloy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 109 Pro presents an easy load for most devices, from portable audio sources to heavy-duty home amplifiers. The dark walnut earcups are complemented by zinc components, a manganese steel frame, and a vegan leather headband. The spider-like, acoustically transparent grille in the center of the earcups securely yet effortlessly supports the driver from both sides. The soft velour ear pads are made of a softer and more breathable material than leather, preventing perspiration or overheating during long listening sessions, and completing a comfortably light, yet extremely durable overall package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarefully tuned by our engineering team, the 109 PRO delivers emotional and immersive sound with incredible detail, clarity, and just the right amount of punch. The organic nature combined with superior dynamics, an authentic soundstage, and rich vocal reproduction brings to life the soul-stirring details of the performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExceptional Driver\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe diaphragm is the heart of the headphone, producing the waves that our brain ultimately perceives as sound. To achieve the acoustic goals we set for the 109 PRO, our research and development focused on material science and finding the perfect balance between mass and stiffness that maximizes sound quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur search led to the development of the 109 series dual-composite diaphragm – a combination of Beryllium-coated polymer, cellulose+carbon fiber composite, and copper-zinc alloy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe W-shaped dome made of carbon fiber reinforced cellulose composite is capable of reproducing high frequencies with incredible detail, clarity, and crispness. More durable than conventional alternatives used in dynamic drivers, yet lightweight, this composite helps us avoid resonances that can lead to harmonic distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ultra-thin cone surrounding the dome consists of a beryllium-coated semicrystalline polymer, 22 microns thick. By applying the beryllium coating through physical vapor deposition (PVD), we aimed to increase the speaker's stiffness and durability, while keeping it light enough for a fast transient response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeryllium's high damping properties also help suppress unwanted resonances, giving the 109 PRO its neutral, lively, and transparent character. The copper-zinc alloy ring stabilizer around the cone further enhances vibration damping, thereby reducing distortion even more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe moving parts of the driver are suspended in a precisely machined aluminum frame, which has superior rigidity compared to typical plastic frames. This ensures perfect shape and stability, essential for quality assembly and excellent performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSustainable Values\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black walnut wood we use is sourced only from certified origins, harvested from mature trees at the end of their life cycle. This protects the environment and allows space for new growth to mature peacefully, awaiting its future glory in the form of Meze headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDriver size: 50mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 5Hz - 30KHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 112dB @ 1KHz, 1mW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpedance: 40 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetachable cables with 3.5mm TRS plugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 375g without cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded accessories: Hard EVA carrying case, 1.5m soft TPE cable with 3.5mm stereo plug, 3m soft TPE cable with 3.5mm stereo plug, female 3.5mm to male 6.3mm gold-plated adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Meze Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56781791363447,"sku":"M-109P","price":799.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/5159\/4359\/files\/MezeAudio109PRO-5Large_64f83314-c542-4d0c-962b-349f7f3ba2ef.webp?v=1771763319","url":"https:\/\/hifikaupat.fi\/en\/products\/meze-audio-109-pro-sankakuulokkeet","provider":"Hifikaupat.fi ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
