Meze 105-AER Open Back Headphones
Meze 105-AER Open Back Headphones
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.
"105 AER carries a feeling of Art Deco opulence, almost like a piece of jewelry masked in a mechanical structure. Certain curves and surfaces are not obvious at first glance; there's an ambiguity to the three-dimensional shape inviting you to discover it over time." – Paul Șteț, Senior Product Designer
