Key Features

Developed by the Ukrainian research group Rinaro exclusively for Meze Audio, the MZ4 driver is one of the lightest and most advanced planar magnetic drivers on the market. It combines individual switchback and spiral-shaped voice coils within the same diaphragm, enabling more accurate sound targeting around the natural form of the ear.

The Meze Audio LIRIC headphones boast a visually and tactilely pleasing design with inspiration drawn from Maramures craftsmanship, expertly incorporating Macassar ebony wood. These innovative headphones are not only stylish but also highly flexible and resistant to shock, wear, and oxidation, presenting detachable magnetic ear pads to ensure enhanced reliability and serviceability.

Featuring a finely tuned Pressure Equalization System, the Meze Audio LIRIC headphones allow for optimal ear cup chamber pressure and better airflow control. This system enhances the transition from the bass frequency region into the low midrange, contributing to a smoother listening experience.

Meze Audio's LIRIC headphones are a true testament to the brand's commitment to innovation, quality, and design. Crafted with state-of-the-art technology, these closed-back headphones offer an unparalleled listening experience that is sure to impress even the most discerning audiophiles. The MZ4 Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver is one of the lightest and most advanced planar magnetic drivers available in the market, delivering ultra-high resolution audio with less than 0.15% total harmonic distortion (THD). 

And that's not all, the LIRIC headphones also bring to the table technologies such as the Phase-X™ system, that improves phase response for closed-back housings, enhancing ambience and spatial sound imaging, and the QWRM (Quarter Wavelength Resonator Mask) that helps to smooth treble peaks by covering certain earcup openings with a precision-crafted metal component. There is no doubt that the LIRIC headphones are perfect for creating an outstandingly immersive audio experience.

Meze Audio's LIRIC headphones are designed to be easy-to-drive, featuring a 100dB@1mw/1kHz and 61Ω impedance that enables them to be driven by almost any portable source without requiring additional amplification.
