Finally someone else that doesn’t like the Meze sound. I wanted to like the 109 Pro so badly because it just looks so so good and feels great. But the sound profile is not for me at all.
If you’re looking for some that fits between the HD600 and the Noire, the Focal Hadenys is worth a look - you can catch a deal on them if you’re patient and they are a good set.
I also think that you will like the Arya Stealth if you get to try them. They were my endgame until one of the speakers died like a week after I got it. If you get one that works, they are an amazing daal.
Build quality is great. People hyped up the bass a lot and I found it disappointing. Overall the clarity/detail retrieval wasn't great either coming from the Arya stealth. I liked the 109 pro a lot more.
Got it. The best way to test that would be to see if there's a Hi-Fi or electronics shop near you that has any headphones you're interested in to demo.
Actually, with a budget that high, plus the fact that you already own a Meze Boom mic, you could check out the 105 Silva or the 109 Pro. Those are also great headphones and would allow you to not buy a new mic.
