1 year agoJust one I own? The Meze 99 Noir are the headphones I grab for the most. Their sound signature is just all around appealing to me and they’re the most comfortable headphones I’ve ever used.
Just one of anything? I have no idea. The most expensive headphones in my collection are the Monolith M1070, and I’ve never even used anything with an MSRP above those, except for demoing a pair of AirPods Max. I’d probably still choose the Meze 99 Noir. There are better headphones, sure, but I have no idea how any of them sound or fit. Why would I choose them without ever having used them?
I use the AKG K553 Pro as my work headset. I’ll sometimes spend all day on Teams calls, and they’re extremely comfortable. I bought them used and upgraded the pads, so I can’t speak specifically about the stock pads though.
