Meze Audio 109 Pro
Overview
The Meze Audio 109 Pro is an open-back dynamic headphone that represents the Romanian manufacturer's first foray into open-back design, delivering a warm, engaging sound with the artisanal build quality that has become the brand's signature. It features a newly developed 50mm dynamic driver with a beryllium-coated polymer diaphragm, producing a smooth, naturally warm sound with full-bodied bass, rich midrange presence, and a gently rolled treble that prioritizes musicality and long-session comfort over analytical precision. The open-back design creates a spacious, three-dimensional soundstage with excellent instrument separation and a natural sense of airiness that invites extended listening. The real walnut wood ear cup housings are hand-finished to a beautiful standard and serve as acoustic chambers that contribute to the headphone's refined tonal character. The manganese steel self-adjusting headband provides a secure, comfortable fit without manual adjustment, and the vegan leather and memory foam earpads are plush and breathable. At 40 ohms, the 109 Pro is easy to drive from most sources. Build quality is exceptional with premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship throughout. The Meze 109 Pro is ideal for music lovers and audiophiles who value warmth, comfort, and aesthetic beauty in their listening experience. The deliberately warm and smooth tuning may lack the incisive detail retrieval that mixing engineers require for critical analytical work.
