Verdict

The Meze Audio 109 Pro is a high-end, 375g open-back headphone featuring 50mm dual-membrane drivers with a carbon fiber-reinforced cellulose dome and beryllium-coated polymer torus, housed in black walnut, manganese steel, and velour. With 40-ohm impedance and 112 dB sensitivity, it offers a spacious soundstage, detailed treble, and organic mids, excelling in comfort and fully modular, adhesive-free construction. Potential drawbacks include a treble-forward signature that may fatigue some users, limited deep sub-bass impact, and a recessed 3.5mm cable socket that restricts third-party cable compatibility.
