Meze Empyrean II, Sumptuous Headphones

Meze Headphones continue to reach new heights. They're not content with their already exceptional Empyrean Headphones they've managed to take them to the next level. These are a group of people who are passionate and dedicated to creating the best Headphone experience they can.

They work closely with Ukrainian company Rinaro (now with an extra manufacturing facility in Poland!) who make their planar magnetic drivers. Rinaro has been very clever inching out all of the efficiency in the drivers by combining a switchback and a spiral design into the one driver to maximise performance.

Other beautiful details over the Empyrean Is are the options in Ear pads. Depending on your listening preferences, you can switch out the ears pads betweeen an angled and a 'duo' version. The angled version will give you an airier, more transparent signature.

We have been playing around with these Headphones now for a couple of weeks and find their detail and efficiency absolutely breathtaking. If you're after something that has that detail and has a bit more warmth, the step up to the Elite version ($7000) is still recommended.

To note: These only come in the one colour, black, at least for the moment.
