Melomania M100
British hi-fi maker Cambridge Audio has earned a cult following in Europe, and the Melomania M100 is its standout value flagship for sound-first listeners.
Read the product overview
A larger 10mm driver and the brand's Class AB amplifier deliver clear, dynamic audio, and aptX Lossless support brings CD-quality streaming to compatible phones, a rarity at this price. A dedicated Matt EQ button toggles a livelier tuning, ANC handles everyday noise, and battery life is excellent at around ten hours per bud. The playful Matt Berry voice prompts are a charming British touch. ANC is mid-tier rather than class-leading and the app is fairly basic, but for codec support and sound per euro it is a beloved EU pick.
