MEZE AUDIO 105 SILVA – IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE NUANCES

Tuned to balance refined detail with a vibrant, engaging personality, the SILVA delivers a sound that is both revealing and immediately musical. It is a headphone that invites you to immerse yourself in the nuances, while maintaining a sense of playful energy and rhythmic drive.

The design is inspired by the mid-century modern tradition, where function, aesthetics and materials merge into a timeless expression.

A SOUND SIGNATURE WITH BOTH SOUL AND PRECISION

105 SILVA is tuned to hit a point where technical finesse meets emotional engagement. The sonic balance lies in the tension between warmth and clarity: vocals appear present and full, the treble rolls out with a smooth and airy character, while the bass range is tight and well-controlled without dominating. The fast, articulate transients make complex recordings easy to follow, and the separation between the instruments creates an open, organic stage where the music feels alive.

All of this makes SILVA both genre-versatile and suitable for long listening sessions – a headphone created for those who want to enjoy the details of music without losing its soul.

A TIMELESS DESIGN, SHAPED BY NATURAL MATERIALS

Drawing on mid-century modern aesthetics, the 105 SILVA combines the warm glow of solid walnut with modern industrial materials. The radial grill blends with the wood, highlighting the depth of craftsmanship. The manganese steel headband provides flexibility and strength, while the PVD-coated zinc alloy fittings support the whole with a subtle metallic finish.

SILVA does not appear as an anonymous technological object, but as a piece of design that signals calm, nature and mature elegance.

A DRIVER DESIGNED FOR BOTH MUSICALITY AND RESOLUTION

Inside, the 105 SILVA is equipped with a custom-designed 50mm dynamic driver, with every part optimized for both precision and musicality. The W-shaped dome in carbon fiber reinforced cellulose delivers high-frequency clarity without harshness, while the torus, which is titanium-coated via PVD, adds rigidity and speed without adding unnecessary mass.

The combination results in a driver that is fast in transients, tonally balanced, and equipped with the texture and warmth that many listeners associate with Meze's dynamic headphones. A copper-zinc stabilizer around the diaphragm absorbs micro-vibrations and minimizes distortion, so music appears cleaner and more natural.

COMFORT DESIGNED FOR ALL-DAY LISTENING

SILVA follows Meze's ergonomic philosophy, where every contact surface and curve is designed to support the listener without drawing attention to itself. The self-adjusting PU leather headband distributes weight evenly and adapts to the shape of the head automatically, and the velour cushions envelop the ears in a soft and breathable way.

Velour was chosen because it maintains a stable acoustic environment without creating heat build-up or discomfort, making SILVA particularly suitable for both relaxed listening sessions and deep music preparation for hours at a time.

A COMPANION FOR BOTH HOME AND MOBILE USE

The 105 SILVA comes with a 1.8m OFC cable that combines Kevlar reinforcement, flexibility and durability. This provides a cable solution that is both mechanically solid and electrically clean. Together with the USB-C DAC/AMP adapter, the SILVA enables high-resolution audio directly from modern phones and portable devices – without compromising on quality.

This flexibility makes SILVA a headphone that is suitable for both stationary setups and mobile everyday listening.

BUILT FOR LONG-TERM USE

Meze works according to a philosophy that prioritizes long-term use over frequent replacements. That is why the 105 SILVA is fully serviceable and can be disassembled and repaired if necessary. All essential parts are replaceable, which increases the product's lifespan and reduces its environmental footprint.

It's an approach that ensures that SILVA can follow its owner for many years and continue to develop patina and character – not wear and tear.

A PLACE WHERE MUSIC FEELS ALIVE

Meze 105 SILVA is a headphone that combines aesthetics, craftsmanship and sound engineering into a harmonious whole. It conveys music with both warmth and transparency, creating a space where sound feels like a living organism. It is a headphone that you return to for its balance, its authenticity and its ability to create a calm, natural musical sanctuary.
