New from Meze Audio: 105 AER
AER [aɛr] Romanian noun – AIR
Silent. Unseen. Essential. Air finds expression through invisible vibrations that become audible poetry. 105 AER is our invitation to let the air in and experience the multi-dimensional depth of music. All you have to do is listen.
Bring the outside in
Rich in detail and versatile, Meze Audio 105 AER was created for those who value a deeper connection to their sound – an adaptable open-back headphone, perfectly suited for all genres of music. Inspired by bio-architecture and Nature’s balancing act, 105 AER stands at the peak point of tonal equilibrium.
Built with timelessness in mind, every component is made using premium materials: cast zinc alloy hardware with PVD coating, stamped manganese spring steel headband, ABS-PC earcups, velour earpads, and a soft PU leather headband. Combined with our high standards in terms of ergonomics, 105 AER is a pair of headphones that is not only extremely resilient but also our lightest open-back model to date. 105 AER is designed to offer a listening experience so comfortable and engaging that you’ll forget you’re wearing them.
Driver Design
Our 50 mm dynamic driver architecture has proven to be remarkably reliable and versatile. To keep 105 AER as accessible as possible, the driver membrane and frame underwent slight modifications. We took this opportunity to introduce a unique new headphone voicing that fits all musical genres.
Made of a carbon fiber-reinforced cellulose composite, the dome can reproduce high-frequencies with incredible detail, clarity, and definition. More durable than conventional alternatives used in dynamic drivers, yet lightweight, this composite helps reduce resonances that may lead to harmonic distortion.
Sound + Design
Space to Listen
We believe in creating objects as fully-defined immersive experiences. No aspect can be overlooked and every piece matters. Let 105 AER be the catalyst for a renewed musical journey – lush sounding, with a profound sense of space and clear distinction between instruments.
Lush Sound
Tuned by Alex Grigoras, one of our talented acoustic engineers, 105 AER delivers an exceptionally lush audio presentation. The sound is rich and refined, with a warm and full-bodied quality that envelops you. A slight emphasis on the bass and sub-bass regions allows for a deeper, more resonant foundation, enhancing the overall sense of immersion and adding a satisfying depth to your music. Besides, it’s easy to drive from most devices, whether we’re talking portable sources or intricate home setups.
Soft Ear Pads
Velour cushions comfortably surround the ears, providing the optimal seal to create natural sound. Since velour is far softer and more breathable than leather, it also prevents sweat and overheating during lengthy listening sessions.
All-Day Listening
The self-adjusting headband spreads the weight out to deliver even pressure for any head shape and size.
