FEATURING THE STATE-OF-THE-ART MZ4 RINARO ISODYNAMIC DRIVER UNIT FOR CLEAN SOUND

Rinaro Isodynamic, established during the Cold War in Ukraine, has been at the forefront of planar magnetics research for over three decades. Their commitment led to the invention of Isodynamic hybrid array technology, featured in acclaimed headphones like Empyrean, Elite and LIRIC. Meze Audio leveraging this award-winning technology, presents LIRIC II with the MZ4 Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver, meticulously crafted for everyday use. Each driver has a lightweight diaphragm and a Hybrid Magnet Array for uniform activation, along with a closed-back design to ensure superior sound quality and noise isolation, and it is hand-assembled in Ukraine.

EXPERIENCE AUTHENTIC AUDIO REPRODUCTION WITH THE ALL-NEW PHASE-X SYSTEM

Along with the MZ4 planar magnetic driver, Rinaro has also introduced an innovative addition to the Phase-X system. This newly developed system aims to tackle the phase distortion issues typically seen in closed-back headphones. It enhances ambience and spatial sound imaging, ensuring a more faithful reproduction of the original recording of your favourite music. The Phase-X system allows Liric II to enhance spatial imaging accuracy by reducing nonlinear phase response, making it comparable to open-back designs, especially witnessed in binaural recordings. It elevates your overall listening experience by providing a more linear phase response and faster transient response decay, bringing you closer to the authenticity of the original recorded music.

ENHANCED IMAGING AND LOCALIZATION EXPERIENCE WITH SWITCHBACK AND SPIRAL-SHAPED VOICE COIL

The MZ4 driver unit of the Meze Liric II utilizes a switchback and spiral-shaped voice coils within the same diaphragm, which helps target sound more accurately towards the natural shape of the ear, allowing you to get more precise and selective acoustic performance. These coils in Liric II enable it to deliver clear sound waves across the 10kHz range, resulting in improved imaging and localization. The switchback coil handles lower frequencies efficiently, positioned in the upper part of the driver, while the spiral coil handles middle to high frequencies and is positioned directly over the ear canal, allowing direct sound waves to enter without delays. The diaphragm material of Liric II is a custom isotropic thermally stabilised polymer with a conductive layer, making it lightweight yet rigid, ensuring high-quality sound reproduction.
