Bloom's Take
Liric continues Meze’s legacy of superb design and innovation. Not content to make a “closed-back Empyrean,” Meze is pushing into new sonic territory with a headphone that takes aim at some of the best closed-back headphones in the world. Ultimately, Liric is a look back at Meze’s roots with the 99 Classics, taking those basic principles – a portable design with a sound that evokes the joy and emotion of music – and pushes it forward into flagship level headphone.

Award Winning Technology in a Portable Frame
One of the most sophisticated and advanced planar magnetic technologies in the world and patented in the US, EU, China, and other countries, the Rinaro MZ4 Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver was scaled down and tuned to deliver an audio experience in-line with its larger counterparts found in Empyrean and Elite.
Combined with the closed-back design, the original clarity and emotion is preserved in your music through enhanced sound and minimized external noise. Each driver is entirely hand assembled and tested in Rinaro’s facility in Ukraine.
MZ4 CASING
Reinforced polymer housing designed to withstand the demanding 10,7N load generated by the Hybrid Magnet Array.
MZ4 HYBRID MAGNET ARRAY
Symmetrically placed on either side of the diaphragm, the neodymium magnets are arranged into a Hybrid Array to create a 0.3 Tesla Isodynamic magnetic field across the entire diaphragm surface.
MZ4 ISODYNAMIC HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER
LIRIC is the first closed-back headphone to be powered by this Rinaro driver. The MZ4 driver offers the same dual shaped voice coil array seen in the Empyrean. Over 30 years of R&D have gone into developing this tech, resulting in one of the lightest and most advanced planar magnetic drivers on the market.
ULTRA LOW DISTORTION
Total harmonic distortion (THD) measures under 0.15% in the entire range.
LIGHTWEIGHT
71g combined driver weight designed to create a headphone that offers comfortable listening on the go.
Phase-X™ SYSTEM
Improved ambience and spatial sound imaging through innovative technology.
Patent pending.
ULTRA HIGH RESOLUTION AUDIO
Upper frequency limit of audio reproduction is 92,000 Hz.
EASY-TO-DRIVE
100dB@1mw/1kHz; 30Ω
Can be driven by almost any portable source without needing amplification.
