Cambridge Audio, renowned for over half a century in the hi-fi audio industry, introduces its first over-ear headphones with the Melomania P100. Expanding beyond their award-winning in-ear models, the P100 promises high-fidelity wireless playback, customizable sound through a seven-band EQ, and an exceptional battery life that can power the headphones for over 100 hours – equivalent to more than four days of continuous playback.
Drawing from their deep audio expertise since 1968, Cambridge Audio has fine-tuned the Melomania P100 to deliver their signature sound profile described as transparent and natural, enhancing the listener’s musical experience without distortion. The headphones are further customizable via the ‘Melomania Connect’ app available on iOS and Android, offering six preset profiles and comprehensive control with the seven-band EQ.
Internally, the P100 features 40mm drivers crafted from a lightweight yet durable three-layer composite of PEEK+PU+PEEK materials. This design not only ensures robust performance but also aligns with Cambridge Audio’s commitment to sustainability, as both driver materials are fully recyclable. The headphones themselves are constructed from 50% recycled plastic and are shipped in 100% plastic-free packaging, emphasizing environmental responsibility.
Unique to the P100 in today’s market is its user-replaceable batteries and earcups, a feature that Cambridge Audio plans to support indefinitely, reflecting their dedication to long-term customer satisfaction.
Additional features include Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint connectivity for up to three devices (including one wired connection), support for high-resolution audio codecs up to 24-bit/96kHz, and a specialized ‘Gaming Mode’ for minimal audio latency during gaming sessions.
The P100 also integrates active noise-cancelling (ANC) and adjustable transparency mode, offering up to 60 hours of playback with ANC activated and an impressive 100 hours without ANC – a milestone in battery endurance unmatched by competitors.
Comfort is paramount with the P100, boasting plush earpads made from soft vegan leather and a generously cushioned headband, ensuring extended listening sessions remain comfortable and enjoyable.
