Turn your high-end headphones into a gaming headset with Meze Audio's new Boom Mic
- Meze Audio has released the Boom Mic, an accessory that adds microphone functionality to various headphones.
- The device works with Meze models and other headphones that have dual 3.5mm inputs.
- The Boom Mic is priced at $79 and can be purchased separately or in bundles with Meze headphones.
Meze Audio has introduced the Boom Mic, an accessory designed to add a high-quality microphone to their existing audiophile headphones.
The accessory consists of a detachable omnidirectional microphone in an aluminum casing, with a control clip featuring mute and volume controls. It connects via a 3.5mm auxiliary cable, which eliminates lag compared to wireless alternatives.
While primarily marketed for Meze Audio’s own lineup (such as the 99 Classics, 109 PRO, and LIRIC 2nd Generation), the Boom Mic is compatible with any headphones featuring dual 3.5mm inputs. This broader compatibility could appeal to users looking to repurpose their existing high-end headphones for gaming or video calls.
For $79 on Amazon, the Boom Mic presents a potentially cost-effective way to add microphone functionality to compatible headphones. Meze also offers bundles with their 99 NEO ($249) or 99 Classics ($349) headphones.
Alongside the Boom Mic, Meze introduced the Manta, a $300 headphone stand. While well-crafted, the eye-watering price point likely limits its appeal to enthusiasts who want a flashy display for their headphones shrine.
