Brought to life by hand from premium materials and shaped for a natural adaptable fit it holds the same feeling of craftsmanship and comfort in a lighter more versatile form. Created for long listening sessions wherever you choose to unwind.Driver DesignAt the STRADA’s core is the dynamic driver first introduced in the 109 PRO tuned to perform within a closed-back chamber. Meze has kept the driver’s natural character fully intact while refining its behavior to meet the acoustic demands of a sealed environment.W-Shaped DomeMade of a carbon fiber-reinforced cellulose composite the dome can reproduce high frequencies with remarkable detail clarity and definition. More durable than conventional alternatives used in dynamic drivers yet lightweight this composite helps reduce resonances that may lead to harmonic distortion.Beryllium-Coated TorusThe torus surrounding the dome is composed of beryllium-coated semicrystalline polymer. By applying the beryllium coating through Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) Meze has increased the stiffness and durability of the driver while still keeping it light enough to achieve a fast transient response. These qualities are also enhanced through the grooves on the torus which are precisely positioned at a 45.5° angle. Beryllium’s high damping qualities also help suppress unwant

The ROG Kithara features 100mm ROG-tuned HIFIMAN planar magnetic drivers with an extended frequency response of 8Hz to 55kHz. The open-back design creates a vast and natural soundstage with precise separation. The detachable full-band MEMS boom microphone ensures lifelike voice reproduction for gamers who also demand audiophile-grade communication.
