Cambridge Audio Melomania M100
Melomania M100
True Wireless Headphones With Active Noise Cancellation
Engineered by Hi-Fi experts in London, M100 brings pure, uninterrupted musical sound with industry-leading aptX Lossless, custom EQ, and adaptive hybrid ANC—all with up to 52 hours of battery life.
Designed by Hi-Fi Engineers, Made By Music
We’re obsessed with helping your music sound its best. M100 are our 3rd gen wireless headphones – so we’ve had a chance to really polish them.
aptX Lossless and customisable EQ settings get the most from your music. And so you don’t miss a beat – or a call – in busy areas, we added aptX Adaptive and Bluetooth 5.3 tech. They give a more stable connection for interruption-free listening.
Adaptive hybrid ANC keeps the everyday at arms-length, so you can escape into your own world. Simple touch controls, a comfy fit, and a battery that goes way beyond the ordinary round things up.
Feel Every Beat
Melomania M100 feature two generous 10mm Neodymium-powered drivers. The resulting powerful, but controlled, sound is one that maintains your music’s energy without sacrificing detail – regardless of genre.
Experiment with the choice of ear tips for the best seal, and to keep the sound firmly where it belongs.
Music First
Everyone deserves a great soundstage, low distortion, and high dynamic range. It’s what makes recorded music come alive.
Melomania M100 use Class AB amplification, the same type found in many of our award-winning amps, to deliver the authentic sound quality we’re known for – even when you’re on the go.
Let’s Get Personal
We’ve tuned M100 to deliver our authentic signature Cambridge sound, but we know many people have their own style.
We’ve specified a 7-band graphic equaliser in the all-new Melomania Connect app to build your own custom EQs. Plus, we’ve included 6 pre-set profiles for different music genres or spoken word listening.
Keep the Outside Out
M100 feature adaptive hybrid ANC, which uses information from Feed Forward mics, for external sound, and Feed Back mics, that detect unwanted sound in your ear canal. It automatically adjusts the noise cancellation level based on sound ingress and tightness of fit in the ears.
Enjoy music, podcasts, and calls, uninterrupted by irritating background noise.
Let the Outside In
Activate Transparency mode and shift your attention to what’s going on around you.
With Melomania M100, you can tune into the sound of your surroundings, hold conversations, and listen to public announcements – all without removing your earphones or pausing your playlist.
All Day and All of the Night
M100 continue our tradition of consigning battery anxiety to history, with up to 10 hours of continuous playback possible from a full charge – even with ANC on.
The compact, Qi wireless-compatible charging case stores an extra 23 hours (ANC on) – a lot more albums, podcasts, videos and calls! Take a 10-minute coffee-break charge for a 1.5-hour energy boost.
Hear Every Detail with Lossless Audio
With Melomania M100, experience pure, uncompressed sound. Unlike Standard Audio that cuts corners, aptX Lossless Bluetooth technology delivers flawless bit-by-bit transmission of your music, maintaining uncompromised sound quality during wireless listening from compatible devices.
Your Fit, But You Know It
We supply 5 pairs of ear-tips with every pair of M100 – S & L in premium memory foam or S,M,L in silicone. Experiment to find the best combination for fit, seal and, of course, comfort.
So, whether you’re working, commuting, or simply listening to music, you’ll barely notice you’re wearing them.
High-Tech. As Standard
aptX Lossless works with compatible devices to deliver bit-exact, CD-quality audio with no compression, whilst aptX Adaptive automatically adjusts to keep the music going in busy areas like railway stations at up to 24bit/96kHz.
Bluetooth 5.3 adds extra capacity, speed, stability, and efficiency over its predecessors, helping music, podcasts, video, games and calls to sound their best.
London Calling
When you buy new headphones, they need to be great for calls too. M100 use 3-microphone cVc, a system developed by Qualcomm that helps your voice stand out above environmental noise.
A series of convenient features like Multipoint Connection, Siri and Google Assistant compatibility, reduced-latency gaming mode, and our new Melomania Connect app complete the story.
Designed for Life
Like all our products, Melomania M100 are made to last. They’re designed in London, so IPX4 water resistance was a must. Their compact case protects and charges them in your pocket. The packaging is 100% recyclable and free from plastic.
Over-the-air firmware updates will add capabilities and keep M100 right up to date – watch this space.
REVIEW & AWARDS
Cambridge Audio Melomania M100 review - Read More
"The Melomania M100 are well-designed wireless earbuds with fun and flagship-bothering features that are worth considering at this price. They aren’t without their faults, but their clear, detailed, balanced sound and effective ANC make them an easy-going pair that’s recommendable if you don’t want to pay premium prices." - What Hi-Fi?

"I’ve been testing audio products for over five years now. As a dancer, aerialist and musical theater performer in another life, sound quality, fit and the user experience have always taken priority for me personally – but having heard how wonderful ANC can be when done well, I know what to look for." - Becky Scarrott

"For me, the M100 lives up to being a sound-first design. It is one of the better-sounding true wireless IEMs that I have tested or lived with. I highly recommend to anyone looking for an audio travel companion to listen to the Cambridge Audio Melomania M100, or at least buy it with the option to return, to see if its sound is as enjoyable to you as it was to me. Highly Recommended." - Doug Moore
Cambridge Audio Melomania M100 Review - Read More
"The Melomania M100 pretty much delivers on its brief of offering a high quality performance at a price that’s less premium counterparts.
The sound quality is energetic and enjoyable, perhaps not as nuanced as some but fun seems to be what Cambridge Audio is going for. The ANC is very effective (when it chooses to be), the battery life is spot on, and call quality is very good.
There are areas for improvement. The Adaptive ANC is a little too adaptive, and the wireless performance can slip from time to time. But considering the competition it’s up against, the level of customisation and performance on tap is enough to make the Melomania M100 one of the best mid-range true wireless. And you’ve got Matt Berry talking in your ear – who doesn’t want that?" - Kob Monney

"The Cambridge Audio Melomania M100 are among the best-sounding noise-canceling wireless earbuds I've encountered. Their stunning Hi-Fi sound signature and lossless audio support set the wireless earbuds standard for audiophiles at the price. They're a sweet deal that gives several of the best audiophile headphones a run for the money. " - Lee Dunkley

"In terms of secondary virtues such as microphone quality, noise-canceling intensity, suitability for sports and the app’s range of functions, it doesn’t make any major blunders, but it has to fall behind the best competitors. For active listeners, the Sennheiser Sport TWS is our alternative tip if the sound quality is slightly compromised and NC is not required, and the Sony WF-1000XM5 is our alternative tip if the focus is on effective noise canceling. " - Stefan Schickedanz
