Your gateway to sonic paradise. Building upon the legacy of its predecessor, Meze's Empyrean II emerges as a symphony of artistry, innovation, and craftmanship. "When we first talked about creating the second generation of Empyrean, I knew it would be far from easy. With many ideas in mind, I reached out to our community, eager to gather their feedback in any way I could. I wanted to dive into their hearts and minds, to understand their expectations, and so their input is what shaped the path toward 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 feasible. We made a lot of revisions to discover the right proportions and materials that would deliver the sound signature we aimed for." Alex Girgoras, Acoustic Engineer Artistry & Craftsmanship Beautiful in both form and texture, Empyrean II is an experience for the senses. A natural step forward from Meze's first ever planar magnetic headphone, Empyrean II retains all the beloved elements of its iconic predecessor, with an added touch of sonic and sculptural elegance. Crafted with precision via CNC milling, Empyrean II’s aluminum frame features a sleek black matte finish and a redesigned grill that draws inspiration from the bold and timeless art deco patterns. In the center of the all-black frame, a silver accent casts a radiant glow. Meze x Rinaro Empyrean II emerges as the fruitful collaboration of two passionate companies that set out to explore uncharted territories. Meze's engineering team has masterfully harnessed the power of Rinaro's Isodynamic Hyprid Array Driver to reach a new world of sound. Sonic Mastery Reimagined For the second-generation model, Meze Audio’s specialists have further refined the exceptional Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver design from Rinaro Isodynamics, delivering a step-change performance. The goal was to enhance the headphones’ ability to reproduce fine details and achieve a more neutral sound signature, all the while preserving the original Empyrean's “easy to listen to” character. Using ingenious tuning methods, Meze's team revealed new possibilities in terms of resolution and detail retrieval, achieving a cleaner and more accurate representation of audio.
