I really love my 99 classics. They are visually so beautiful, I love the walnut with gold and black touches. The balance of wood and metal creates a combination of strength with a more delicate looking finish. I love that they don't look like anything else out there. They come with different options of chord lengths, which is also awesome, and the chords are covered in beautifully woven material with gold touches. Most importantly, they sound clear and vibrant. The ear pads are the most comfortable I've ever experienced with headphones. My 99 classics arrived just in time to write new music with them, and I am so excited to use them.
