Master & Dynamic has become known for its wireless over-ear headphones, like the MW75, thanks to their unique design and premium quality. But way back in 2015, it had a different pair of headphones, in the form of the Master & Dynamic ME05 wired earbuds that offered a hi-fi audio quality and stylish design.Finally, for the first time since 2015 (they were discontinued in 2022), Master & Dynamic is giving those wired earbuds a bit of an update, and theres a whole lot to like about them.One thing that isnt that different, thankfully, is how they look. They have the same brass acoustic enclosures, but unlike the original earbuds, they come in four different color options. That includes gold and black, gunmetal and black, palladium and black, and palladium and white. They all look pretty great, and they all have a metallic finish to them, but Im partial to the gunmetal and black color.While the ME05 earbuds are wired, they still offer modern connectivity. The cable terminates in a standard 3.5mm headphone connector, but Master & Dynamic is shipping them with a 3.5mm to USB-C adapter that allows them to be used with any modern smartphone. That adapter features a digital-to-analog converter built right into it, which supports hi-res audio at up to 32-bit/384kHz. Thats the kind of resolution you can only get by seeking out those high-quality files even streaming services with a hi-res option, like Tidal, dont get to that quality.The earbuds have Master & Dynamics 8mm bio-cellulose drivers, along with a new-and-improved microphone, which will come in handy when youre on the phone.You might think that the $200 price tag is a lot for a pair of wired earbuds, but audiophiles are used to paying way more, especially when you factor in the included adapter. I havent tested the new earbuds personally yet, but Master & Dynamic has a history of great audio, and I would be shocked if these earbuds didnt continue that tradition.You can order the new-and-improved Master & Dynamic ME05 earbuds via masterdynamic.com.
