Meze Elite Tungsten. Mint condition. Still under warranty. Genuine reason for sale. Happy for pickup or will post Royal Mail special delivery insured.
The Meze ELITE is a genuinely notable flagship: an exceptionally comfortable, open-back planar with a spacious, highly resolving presentation and unusually undemanding 32-ohm drive requirements. At £2,500, this excellent-condition example is above the seven-listing median of £2,289 and just under the £2,528 75th percentile, so it’s fair-to-strong rather than a bargain—reasonable for a particularly complete, pristine example, but not an obvious price-led win.
What makes it worthwhile is the combination of refinement and listenability: excellent imaging, fast and textured bass, rich midrange, and enough musical weight to avoid sounding sterile. The suspension headband and interchangeable Alcantara pad options are practical advantages for long sessions, while the robust construction should age well. Confirm that both pad sets, the original cable and case are included; at this price, completeness matters. If everything is present and condition is genuinely excellent, this is a sound buy for someone wanting a long-term end-game headphone, though modest negotiation would improve the value.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Meze Audio traces its roots to 2011, when Romanian industrial designer Antonio Meze founded the company in the northern city of Baia Mare. Born from his passion for music and innovative design, Meze initially launched under the name Meze Headphones before evolving into Meze Audio. This heritage reflects a blend of Eastern European craftsmanship and a drive to elevate personal audio beyond conventional boundaries.
The brand specializes exclusively in headphones and earphones, eschewing amplifiers, speakers, or other hi-fi categories. Iconic models like the Empyrean, developed in collaboration with Ukrainian engineers at Rinaro for advanced planar magnetic drivers, exemplify their focus on planar and dynamic designs. Standouts such as the 99 Classics, 109 Pro, and more accessible options like the 105 AER deliver signature bass authority, spacious soundstaging, and meticulous tuning tailored for discerning listeners.
Meze Audio commands a strong position in the high-end headphone market as a niche boutique leader, prized by audiophiles for striking industrial aesthetics and reference-grade performance. Their products have garnered design awards, rave reviews from major publications, and a global following through word-of-mouth and retail channels, positioning them as a force that challenges premium pricing norms with unwavering quality.
