The verdict

The Meze Audio 109 Pro are well made and offer something a little less clinical for at-home listening. The tuning highlights treble frequencies, but with more bass that most open-backs. These unique open-back headphones allow you to repair and replace parts on as they age, which helps justify the price tag.

What we like
Bass response is good for open-backs
Tension fit automatically sizes the headphones
Two cable lengths included
Build quality
Replaceable parts
What could be better
A touch trebly
Comfort depends on individual fit
Higher measured THD than the ideal
