Romanian manufacturer Meze Audio introduces the Meze Audio STRADA closed-back dynamic headphones. STRADA offers a harmonious acoustic experience where detail, texture, and dynamics come alive with effortlessness and emotional impact. With excellent noise isolation, natural spatial rendering, and a carefully tuned driver system, STRADA creates a private sonic space, perfect for long listening sessions at home or on the go.

Inspired by the chassis of the LIRIC series, Meze Audio STRADA introduces a build optimized for dynamic driver performance. Each pair is hand- assembled from premium materials and shaped for an adaptable, natural fit.

At the heart of Meze Audio STRADA lies a dynamic driver first introduced in the 109 PRO, newly tuned for closed-back performance. Crafted from a carbon fiber-reinforced cellulose composite, the dome delivers high-frequency detail with minimal distortion. The surrounding torus is formed from a semicrystalline polymer coated with beryllium via Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD). This enhances stiffness, durability, and transient response, while precision-cut 45.5 grad. grooves further refine control. A copper-zinc alloy stabilizer encircles the membrane, absorbing micro-vibrations to significantly reduce distortion.

A seamless magnetic mounting system allows effortless pad swapping while maintaining the perfect seal. Exotic Macassar ebony ear cups features deep brown tones enhanced by golden-brown striations, making each pair visually unique. The Meze Audio STRADA headphones will be available for purchase starting January 21st, 2026, with a suggested retail price of $/€799.
