Meze 99 Classics review: style meets substance in a winning combination
Reece Bithrey's review of the Meze 99 Classic headphones? Are they more style than substance?
My usual suite of hard rock tracks including The Invisible Man by Marillion, and the Meanwhile section of Steven Wilson's Objects Outlive Us were suitably brooding, while the deep, synth bass of Earth, Wind & Fire's Let's Groove was reassuringly meaty. Jack Johnson's Washing Dishes is a simple song, featuring his smooth vocals and acoustic guitar at the forefront with underpinnings of percussions and drums, and the 99 Classics delivers it with insightful clarity and a that lovely natural presentation alluded to earlier. Moving over to the busier Nights on Broadway from the Bee Gees, the vocals are sunk back into the mix, in among the song's clavichord and prominent drum work, although the general presentation of the Gibb brothers' marvellous harmonies is rich and full.
