Meze Empyrean II

Meze Audio introduces the Empyrean II - an innovative planar magnetic headphone that marks the brand's ongoing pursuit of audio perfection. Building on the success of the original Empyrean -- already one of the most technologically advanced designs -- this new generation emerges as a symphony of artistry, innovation and craftsmanship.

For the second-generation model, Meze Audio specialists have further refined Rinaro Isodynamics' exceptional Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver design, further improving performance. "When creating the Empyrean II, our goal was to improve the headphones' ability to reproduce fine details and achieve a more neutral sound signature, while maintaining the original "easy-listening" character. With this in mind, our engineers masterfully harnessed the power of the driver to reveal new possibilities in terms of responsiveness and accuracy and even make the driver more reliable in challenging acoustic environments," explains Mircea Fanatan - Managing Director of Meze Audio.

Artistry meets impeccable comfort

Precision crafted via CNC milling, the Empyrean II's frame features a sleek matte black finish with silver accents and a redesigned aluminum grille inspired by art deco art. With a nod to the past and a vision for the future, the new headphones are a testament to Meze Audio's passion for blending classic aesthetics with modern sophistication. You'll want to listen to the Empyrean II for hours. Following the same comfort standards as the entire Meze portfolio, these headphones are deliberately structured to minimize weight and pressure and instantly conform to the shape of your head.

New duo ear pads for a customized experience

The Empyrean II comes with two sets of earpads, each designed for a different experience. Our most advanced earpads in the Empyrean series to date, the brand new Duo Earpads are custom-made for Empyrean II. Made from a precise blend of premium leather and Alcantara, they have a contemporary look and tone. Leather forms the base half and Alcantara covers the rest. These ear pads deliver a harmonious tonal balance that resonates across all genres of music. For a classic audiophile experience, the Angled Alcantara Earpads excel at reproducing intricate details and nuances in your recordings. The angled shape creates more space in the earpads, leading to a more airy sound, with cleaner bass and better midrange presence.

Accessories

The Empyrean II comes with a Meze Audio PCUHD Copper or Silver Premium cable, available with 2.5mm, 3.5mm, 4.4mm, 6.35mm or 4-pin XLR connector. The Empyrean II comes with a new, high-strength ABS plastic case with foam inserts and leather handle.
