99 CLASSICS V2 — THE ICON REIMAGINED
Since their release in 2015, the 99 Classics have undeniably left a big impact on the headphone cultural landscape. In this sense, they have become iconic, a symbol. The second generation features a number of meaningful enhancements, while preserving the spirit of the original.
- Sound signature: neutral, balanced. Engaging bass, clear mids and highs, inviting, and non-fatiguing

- Built using premium materials – walnut wood, spring steel, cast zinc
- Detachable memory foam ear pads with clip-on mechanism
- Dual-twisted, Kevlar-wrapped OFC cable
- Custom 3.5 mm to USB-C adapter with integrated DAC/AMP
- World-class ergonomic design for all-day comfort
- Endless serviceability - every component can be replaced
Everything that made the original an instant classic remains intact: the inviting sound, the seamless comfort, and the use of premium natural materials. Yet, through a decade of feedback and innovation, we've refined every element for an even more immersive and enduring listening experience.
A CLASSIC FIT FOR TODAY
The 99 Classics 2nd Generation embodies our ongoing pursuit of timeless sound and design. Built upon a foundation of natural materials and precision engineering, it continues the legacy that began ten years ago—combining warmth and musicality with enhanced clarity and comfort.
