Brand New $499 Meze Headphones! Meze 105 SILVA Review & Comparison

Meze Audio has been on a hot streak recently with the POET, 105 AER, and 109 PRO headphones, and it seems they aren’t going to stop anytime soon. Today I’m going to check their latest headphone release, the 105 Silva open-back dynamic headphones. For those who don’t know, I’m Romanian, and Silva means “forest” in my native language — a nod to the natural landscapes of Romania that inspired both its sound and look. I heard their prototypes at Meze Audio’s factory last year and a newer revision at the High-End Munich show this year, and I’m happy to report that the production model sounds even better. These retail for US$500 and €500 locally. Let’s check them out in the usual fashion and later compare them with their older siblings: the 105 AER and 109 PRO.
