@@Velkanis the hobby can be so damn expensive, when you invest into a particular sound, you don't want to know that you over paid for a comparable product. The budget audiophile side of things is so fun to explore, I wish people would engage with it more. I got a set of KZ PR2 planar IEM's coming from china for 50 CAD

[@Velkanis]

@@Graive17 sunken cost fallacy, also thats a pretty good score for those KZ's man grats! the reality of it being so subjective is that theres gear at every price range for everyone! but same as the stigma for linux "bult for nerds, hackers and IT managers" people think they have to give up their first born and organs to get "somthing worth the while"

i like how they even used a type of wood that grows locally in Romania with these. truly shows they have an immaculate attention to detail!

black walnut isn't just local to Romania, it's actually a rather high end wood and is used in a lot of more expensive products. I live in the midwestern united states and we had the joy of getting some for helping clean up a fallen tree, and ended up making some really nice bowls out of it on the lathe. Wonderful wood, beautiful grain to it and solid enough to actually use.

It can't be overstated how much having decent equipment can make a student musician become obsessed with their craft. When I was in high school, I was selected to be the first user of a brand new Bach Strad trumpet the school's music department bought. It was so much better than the beginner trumpet I had been using since middle school, it was insane. Because of that trumpet, I went from liking music to being obsessed with getting better at trumpet to an almost unhealthy degree.

Yep! New pieces of equipment for a student could be what makes them obsess! I played on a plastic Accent clarinet from 5th grade until about 8th grade. I got a scholarship to Interlochen’s summer camp in 2013 and my mom had to get me a better clarinet- a Buffet E11. That place got me into jazz clarinet, and I immediately learned how to do glissando’s, and how to do the rhythm of jazz. I eventually asked my mom to get me a tenor sax so I can join Jazz Band in 2013’s school year (which is now ruined due to my apartment leaking on it and making it moldy), and I learned it so SO fast! I even learned how to play flute because of the GRP Allstate Bigband from the 90’s! Didn’t know jazz flute was a thing. I don’t play much anymore, but God do I want to play my tenor again. Now, I’m getting into music production. My first song was horrible, and the last song I made until my laptop broke (I was going through hell when I BROKE IT) and it was leagues better. I love music because my mom actually listened to my band teachers saying, “He’s actually really good. He learns so fast!”

[@Apollostowel]

Clarinet gang represent. I went from a Bundy to a Buffet R13, band director got it for me at cost, got to audition a lot of nice horns, I didn't think they let high school students do that. And yeah, it led me down a garden path to a season in drum corps (mello), and eventually just using the instrument I was born with and doing opera. Wow, coulda saved some money!

[@jb-br8bf]

I can agree with this. Practicing on a cheap student guitar didn't make me feel enthusiastic as a teenager so I stopped learning. I recently decided I wanted to learn again and picked up a second hand Fender Telecaster and have been enjoying practice a lot more.

The 109 I feel is the redemption arc for Meze in the audiophile world. The original meze 55, 73, and 88 gave the company a bad rep since they were rebranded Chinese headphones, marked up an extra $100. The 99 was designed by meze, but made in china, and were often called the beats of audiophile headphones due to their massive, bloated bass shelf (this year they had a silent revision that fixed that) The empyrian and elite, while very beautiful, were moreso designed and made by Rinaro in Ukraine The 109 is the first fully in house, designed and built by Meze headphones, and it's a huge leap from where they started. It's great to see a company change and improve so much in a short time

[@fabe61]

Since I turned around 16 I suddenly began listening to a lot more music than I used to, from almost nothing to 3-4 hours a day. Over the first proper Covid lockdown here in the U.K. I used some of my left over student loan which I’d saved up and bought myself a pair of Beyerdynamic 1990 Pros. It was the best money I’ve ever spent. They blew me away at the time and I still get surprised by their quality and n a regular basis. That year, with lockdown ruining my experience at university and generally making me miserable, those headphones really fanned the flames for my passion for music and I ended up averaging 8 hours, 30 minutes a day of listening to music on Spotify. Really changed my relationship with music and forged me some really good habits I still have now.

JUST CRAPPED MYSELF WHEN DANKPODS MENTIONED KNOWER!!!! I just discovered them about a month ago, but they have become one of my favorite groups. Good call, mate!!! New stuff just dropped, btw 😎👍

[@iDarcky]

Made in Romania gang rise up!!!

[@tbomb2336]

you are the reason i bought the 99 neo's back in january and i love everything about them, thank you for showing these amazing headphones

[@Malocalypse]

Dude, seriously I can listen to you blather on about damn near anything. You definitely rolled and 18 charisma my dude. Keep up the good work!

[@questerbob]

Dude, you're always such a riot to watch! Love your content, and you were able to review the headphones I've just been dyin' to get! Ohhh, and now I want them even more... thanks for that!

[@SuperReview]

I feel like I just saw Frank in a way I wasn't supposed to, not sure how to feel about it.

[@janemba42]

My god these these are a work of art, even down to the design encouraging user servicing. Gorgeous!

[@JandCfilms1]

Those headphones sound so SMOOTH. I've never heard headphones sound as smooth as those. My gosh I want one!

[@chacesonnerville1348]

I was excited for you man, meze is a dream headphone name I want in my future collection 😫

[@VraerynDaDragon]

I was an idiot and snapped the headband on my T1s. I have no used them since, because there are 0 drop in replacements that don't cost WELL OVER $400!! Repairability? Smooth warm sound? DankPods, you just sold me.

[@DapperDanLovesYou]

I nabbed a pair of the 99 Neos when you ran that lovely promo with Meze. I would imagine many other people did the same and they are very grateful 😂 My 99 Neos are still going strong and are heaps fun for casual listening, the bass thumps in all the right ways

[@deidara07]

You should speak to Meze about having them fly you out to talk about their process and their philosophy when it comes to sound quality and the ability to repair their products. I think it would make a really fun video!

[@kingcaique]

I bought a pair of neos because of you, and I love them so much!

[@andyyyb]

I just got my (second hand) 99 Classics, and I'm in love with them. Meze never fails with their designs. I love the walnut.

[@bogdanrus9402]

As a romanian i've never heard of Meze. I dont much care for audio quality, or headphones in general, but they look good, the repairability factor is awesome, and it seems Wade really likes them and he know his stuff. Good to see a romanian company creating quality products.

[@Mischievous_Moth]

I work in IT so it makes me extremely happy to see products that can be easily repaired like these.

[@LazerLord10]

regarding the topic of cases, you could have some cases 3D printed!! That's actually a perfect application for it, thinking about it.

[@marvingeorge8856]

3:11 This man is laying out some fat bars

[@adrianmanea4921]

I bought my first pair of meze because of you. The funny thing is that I'm a Romanian and I learned about them while watching your channel.

[@thesqueeeps]

I love mezes classic 99s recently took em on a flight for the first time and they’d so comfy and the hard case is a blessing

[@SkepTones]

I love watching you geek over the good stuff mate!! These sounded so good on the HEARS that if I had 8 hungeo right now, I’d be eating these up for dinner along with some delicious desiccant seasoning 😍

[@lilpisser124]

HEARS=freakish ears on a stand

[@eoincurran8122]

Watching this on my 109 pros and they are just as amazing as described

[@pvshka]

Holy shit, yours can also reproduce video?

[@eoincurran8122]

@@pvshka hahahahahaha yeh

[@nothinghere7391]

YES!!! Another video of MEZE headphones that I will never be able to afford! Amazing!
