Description

MEZE X RINARO Empyrean II emerges as the fruitful collaboration of two passionate companies that set out to explore uncharted territories. Our engineering team has masterfully harnessed the power of Rinaro’s Isodynamic Hybrid Array Driver to reach a new world of sound. SONIC MASTERY REIMAGINED The result of years of research and development, Empyrean II lets you experience more of what you love: more clarity more depth more fun Our goal was to enhance the headphones’ ability to reproduce fine details and achieve a more neutral sound signature, all the while preserving the original “easy to listen to” character. Using ingenious tuning methods, we revealed new possibilities in terms of resolution and detail retrieval, achieving a cleaner and more accurate representation of audio. The reliability and resistance of the membrane inside the driver were also improved, ensuring exceptional performance even in challenging acoustic environments. ARCHITECTURE OF THE ISODYNAMIC HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER© The Isodynamic Hybrid Array Driver combines individual switchback and spiral-shaped voice coils in one driver, allowing sound to be targeted with more accuracy around the natural form of the ear. Patented in the U.S., EU and China ACCURATE REPRODUCTION Total harmonic distortion (THD) measures under 0.1% in the whole frequency range LIGHTWEIGHT Reduced driver weight designed to create a headphone that offers prolonged listening sessions ERGONOMIC SHAPE Ergonomically shaped driver structure with an increased active area ULTRA-HIGH-RESOLUTION AUDIO The upper-frequency limit of audio reproduction is 110,000 Hz [MZ3] HYBRID MAGNET ARRAY Symmetrically placed on each side of the diaphragm, the neodymium magnets are specifically arranged into a Hybrid Array to create the efficient Isodynamic magnetic field required for a uniform activation across the whole diaphragm surface. RINARO ISOPLANAR® DIAPHRAGM Weighing only 0.16 g while having 4650 mm2 of active area. [MZ3] FRAME Fiberglass-infused ABS. ISOPLANAR® DIAPHRAGM MATERIAL The switchback coil is more efficient at reproducing lower frequencies and is positioned in the upper part of the driver. The spiral coil is more efficient at reproducing middle-high frequencies. It is positioned directly over the ear canal enabling more direct sound waves to enter the ear without any time delays. ISOMAGNETIC® EARCUP TO EARPAD COUPLING TECHNOLOGY Rinaro’s Isomagnetic® coupling technology makes switching earpads a breeze. It utilizes the demagnetizing field generated by the driver to secure the earcup in place, while simultaneously redirecting the magnetic field back into the driver, thereby enhancing efficiency. YOUR SOUND, YOUR CHOICE Elevate your listening experience to new heights – Empyrean II comes with two sets of earpads included, allowing the ultimate sound customization. Switch between our Duo and Angled earpads for an auditory journey that is entirely your own. Duo Earpads Our all-new Duo earpads are specifically tailored to match Empyrean II. Crafted from a precise blend of premium leather and Alcantara, the Duo Earpads introduce a contemporary dimension to the signature sound profile of Empyrean II. With leather forming the base half and Alcantara covering the rest, these earpads deliver a harmonious tonal balance that resonates across all music genres. We researched and tested various material ratios to achieve the best there is to offer. The outcome is a flawless fusion: well-sustained bass frequencies owed to the leather, with beautiful refinement and spatiality from Alcantara. Angled Alcantara Earpads Made of soft foam coated with Alcantara, with a fine protective mesh on the grill, the angled earpads excel at rendering intricate details and nuances in your recordings. The angled shape creates more space inside the earpad, which translates to an airier sound signature, with cleaner bass and improved presence in the mid-range frequency. Paired with Empyrean II, they create a detailed, airy, and accurate listening experience, for the classic audiophile. UNBOUNDED COMFORT With Empyrean II, your music takes center stage. Following our highest standard for comfort, with a purpose-built structure that minimizes weight and pressure, this headphone instantly adapts to the shape of your head. This highly acclaimed synergy of ergonomics and premium materials guarantees more than just exceptional sound – it allows you to enjoy uninterrupted hours of music, without any discomfort. FULLY SERVICEABLE We believe in creating products that last. Empyrean II is no different: every part of the headphone chassis can be disassembled and serviced with ease if ever needed.
