We created the 99 Classics to show that technical accessories can be more than just about performance. We view headphones as vessels that contain our love for artistic expression and celebrate individuality. Every little detail matters.

WOOD TECHNOLOGY

The choice of wood is an inherently difficult one. The rich colors of walnut require the use of air drying a long and expensive procedure.

The process of shaping just a single pair of earcups takes up to 8 hours. The whole process of sanding lacquering and finishing lasts 45 days.

One last step is left - a careful inspection of the wooden parts to ensure that no imperfections pass through.

FEATURES

SUSTAINABLE BY DESIGN

We think about our headphones breaking from the earliest stages of product development. If we want to slow down replacement cycles and create something to be enjoyed for years we have to find solutions for anything that could go wrong before it even happens.

That’s why we make the 99 Classics fully serviceable. Earcups headband cables or driver all pieces are replaceable.

Walnut wood ear cups

Treasured for their rich dark color and beautiful grain walnut trees are strong and durable yet lightweight and malleable. The cups are CNC carved then hand-finished stained and polished.

Cast zinc hardware

The metal hardware on the frame is made out of cast zinc alloy hardware with electroplated coating finished in gold or silver.

Self-adjustable headband

The vegan leather headband is reinforced with a manganese spring steel outer band and is purposely designed to distribute the weight and pressure evenly on most head shapes.

Detachable ear pads

Crafted from medium-density foam and soft vegan leather the ear pads are designed for easy replacement when needed providing sustained comfort over time.
