A Test of Patience and Precision

"When we first discussed creating the second generation of the Empyrean, I knew it wouldn't be easy. With many ideas in mind, I reached out to our community, eager to gather their feedback in any way possible. I wanted to get into their hearts and minds, understand their expectations, and it was their input that shaped the path to Empyrean II. What followed was a test of patience and precision. At first, the possibilities seemed endless, but reality showed us that only a few of our plans were achievable. We went through many revisions to find the right proportions and materials to deliver the sound signature we were after." - Alex Grigoras, Acoustic Engineer

Art Meets Craft

Empyrean II retains all the beloved elements of its iconic predecessor. Precision-crafted via CNC milling, the frame features a sleek matte black finish with silver accents and a redesigned grille inspired by the bold and timeless patterns of art deco.

Meze x Rinaro

Empyrean II is the result of a fruitful collaboration between two passionate companies. Meze's engineering team has skillfully mastered the power of Rinaro's Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver to discover a "new world" of sound.

More Details, Depth, Fun

Empyrean's goal was to improve the headphones' ability to reproduce fine details and achieve a more neutral sound signature, while still maintaining the original "easy listening" character.

The Precision of a Masterpiece

Good things take time, so the team at Meze spent months trying and testing different tuning techniques until they finally nailed it. Their efforts revealed new possibilities in terms of resolution and detail recovery, resulting in a cleaner and more accurate representation of sound compared to the original Empyrean.

Isomagnetic® technology

Rinaro's Isomagnetic® clamping technology uses the demagnetizing field generated by the driver to securely clamp the earcup, while redirecting the magnetic field back into the driver, thus improving efficiency.

Next Level Sound

Made from soft Alcantara®-covered foam with a fine mesh on the grille, the Angled pads excel at reproducing the intricate details and nuances of songs. The angular shape creates more space inside the pad, which means a more airy sound signature with cleaner bass and improved midrange presence.

Passion, technology and perfection in every detail

The Meze ELITE headphones are the result of over 10 years of innovation, passion and dedication in the audio industry. Designed in Baia Mare, Romania, and crafted in collaboration with Rinaro Isodynamics, they offer an unparalleled sound experience, where precision engineering meets the art of design. With captivating sound, ergonomic design and exceptional construction, ELITE goes beyond the conventional and transforms listening into a multi-sensory experience.

At the heart of these headphones is the Rinaro Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver, a revolutionary technology developed over 3 years of research. It delivers faithful reproduction with minimal distortion and exceptional resolution, up to 112,000 Hz. In addition, the Rinaro Parus diaphragm made of ultra-light semi-crystalline polymer provides natural transparency and precise acoustic directionality.

Designed for durability and comfort, ELITE is hand-built with premium materials, from CNC aluminum and carbon fiber, to Alcantara or leather-Alcantara hybrid earpads. The Isomagnetic fit and Pressure Distribution Wings design contribute to a comfortable fit, even during long listening sessions.

Attention to detail is taken to the extreme – every component is easily serviceable, and the manufacturing process takes days, ensuring high standards. With balanced sound, spatial depth and a timeless aesthetic, Meze ELITE are headphones created not just for now, but for a lifetime.
