MEZE AUDIO | 99 Series Silver Plated Upgrade Balanced 2.5mm Jack | Headphones HiFi Replacement 2.5mm Male to Dual TS Mono 3.5mm Male Connector Plug | Length 1.2m/3.9ft

This is my first entry to a quality cable for my headphones. Disclaimer, I might not be the best listener but I do own a few pairs of headphones as each has in uniquely character in audio representation and I do enjoy changing them out occasionally. Back to the cable, I ordered both cables, one with the brown translucent sleeve (have not tried it yet) and the ones in the photos. Though not much reviews here, but this cable do work with my Hifiman HE5SE. So those with the 3.5mm variant of Hifiman. It does work. It's with this cable I really do believe the cable makes a huge difference in the audio. I am running through the FiiO K3 which imo serves me really well and provide me a clean output without the need of a external power supply. The highs became more clearer, the lows are much more tighter with no distortion and the vocal been the sweets spot for me. The soundstage becomes more spatial with the imaging much more accurate. Initially I assume is just the volume "boost", but once I swtiched back to the stock cable that came with the headphones, those notes and tones I heard was not as "clear". Immediately I swapped back to the Meze cable and I could really tell the difference. The clarity is just so much better and it shows the headphones were actually held back by the cables. Like the cymbals could be held much better, the bass guitar slaps are so much more dynamic. Words really cannot describe, I used to purchase a cable that just work at a low cost and did not have much thought as I am someons who thinks that its just an electrical signal, what difference will it make? Not until now. If you own a hifiman that have the 3.5mm plugs for both earcups, this cable will definitely work, I tried on my 4XX as well and it's fully compatible, it's a major upgrade to me and an eye opener, will definitely replace my current cables with better quality ones from now on.

Good cable, did what I wanted.

I have read reviews about this balanced silver plated cable and they were all positive. When I saw that it is available on Amazon, I jumped becos' of the lower shipping fees compared to others. The make quality of the cable is really excellent, really like what other reviewers had said. Soft, flexible and no bump sounds transmitted like a stethoscope to disturb the listening pleasure. The sound quality is really remarkably incredible! Again it is what other reviewers make it out to be. It is indeed the real deal. The sound stage is very open, the imaging is fantastic, the vocals and the musical instruments are very excellently rendered. I listen to slow, soft, rock, fast, pop and classical, they all passed the listening test with flying colours. Overall the musical presence is very mind blowing. The vocals' saliva, the bite on the instruments, and the low bass is controlled and deep with great refine definition. I feel like I just bought a totally new hi end headphones, but it is still my old Meze 99 Classic. There's a small note to other buyers however. Other reviewers had mentioned that this cable comes in a metal box and also a 2.5 - 3.5mm jack adaptor. But this cable comes in a cardboard box and no adaptor. None of those matters to me though. Also some reviewers mentioned the 4.4mm version sounds better, but I don't have any device with 4.4mm balance out, so can't comment. Two thumbsup for this cable. Very happy and satisfied. Thank you Meze for this wonderful upgrade! :-)

When I saw this cable selling for essentially the same price as the lesser quality Muse headphone cable on Amazon, I jumped on it. It's a huge improvement using this balanced cable than the stock non-balanced cable that came with my HifiMan cans. Much more detail and soundstage. To be honest, it's not a apple-to-apples comparison, though. This cable is picking up the balanced output from my iBasso DAP. So, it's a combination of the DAP output, the cable and the headphones I'm really hearing. Nonetheless, it is a great value and high quality product.

Poor Quality Cable twist not tight coming apart the Manufacture could care less. All in All the sound improvement is minimal Not worth the Cost

I'm using a Sony NW a45 hi res walkman. The sound is balanced now. With the stock cable sound was bass heavy. The improvement is most noticeable with better quality CDs and flac Music. Any audiophile will appreciate the upgrade

Bought these to use with the awesome Hidizs S9 Pro and take advantage of the 2.5mm differential output. The mono 3.5mm headphone side is perfect for my Focal headphones. Well made, great cable, differential (balanced) is definitely the way to go. Highly recommended .

Very impressed with this cable. It's a bit thin for my taste but the sound is amazing. I will say that it is a bit overkill for the Meze Noir. My Hifiman Ananda actually stole it. They pair far better. Highly recommended cable if you have a use for it and the budget for it

Excelente cable, buen sonido aunque un poco corto de tamaño y algo caro.

Expanded soundstage, clarity and detail, this cable improves significantly the already great sound of the Meze 99 Classic, which is one of the best, better build, and involving sounding headphones at its price (299). highly recommended.

Amélioration subtile de la qualité du son: on sent une amélioration du rapport signal/bruit

J'ai acheté ce câble pour mon Meze Classics et je dois dire qu'on entend bien la différence par rapport au câble de base, le son est juste meilleur tout simplement.
