Meze Audio is a brand that produces headphones such as. 99 classic and high end Empyrean IIis back with brand new wired over-ear cans. The new Meze Audio Strada promises to set a “new benchmark for closed-back headphones” with a sound that “fuses sonic precision with the intimacy of immersive music.”
To achieve this, the new over-ears are equipped with a newly designed set of 50mm dynamic drivers that aim to deliver controlled, precise sound defined by a deep, well-defined bass character, along with a “neutral, transparent midrange” and smooth, detailed treble.
Replaceable ear pads are attached magnetically, making them easier to replace. Meanwhile, the cans’ Makassar hardwood ebony ear cups are designed to be visually striking and unique with each pair.
The Stradas’ design prioritizes comfort, with both the frame and driver system made to be as lightweight as possible to reduce listener fatigue. Meanwhile, the padded headband features a cross-pattern design that distributes pressure more evenly and reduces heat buildup during long listening sessions.
Strada is available with two cables: 1.8m Kevlar with 3.5mm jack and 1.8m Kevlar with 4.4mm jack. Also included is a 6.3mm jack adapter, hard carrying case, and leather cable pouch.
The Meze Audio Strada over-ears are available now, priced at £799 / $799.
