Meze EMPYREAN - the First Isodynamic Hybrid Array Headphone

[Beagle]

I just sent this period to the NSA labs for analysis. It may hold more encoded/invisible information than that obelisk in "2001:A SPACE ODYSSEY"

I find these periods about once a month. Better than not finding them I guess.

Its pad seems really thick, and not much space around the ear after put on.

When Tyll says something sounds "pretty good" it usually ends up meaning it's not good. Or is that when he says "quite good"?

Right near the end of the video, he says "I had a listen and they sounded 'good'", then "It'll be interesting to see how these go" then laughs his head off?

Is he inferring something here, that they are a 'joke'? Just seemed a bit weird..

I would pay no mind to it, from a lot of sources I heard the one at the TSAV booth was pretty amazing and that might be how it sounds in production form. #notworried.

That's why I found it so weird. There have been a lot of positive reports.

Think Z1R i guess..

I'm sure we will be bombarded with a lot more info come closer to launch.

Doesn't make sense to me why they wouldn't showcase the same model from their booth or TSAV. And why would they give a 'production model' to TSAV and not to themselves. If anything it seems like bad version control on their part. They should't be demoing prototypes at their stand and sending a production model to TSAV

I heard it. I can say without any reservations that it has REALLY weird presentation. I mean REALLY.

All 3 Empyrean's at CanJam SoCal were pre-production models, and none of them had the final voicing yet. But the one at the TSAV booth sounded the best to me, as I mentioned in my post about it.

Let's say those were quite bright and had a lot of treble, bening sharpy and metallic, they would have worked well with J-pop and with some metal / post-hardcore, but Jazz and especially trumpets are hard to play.

I heard contemporary Ultrasones and they are as good as closed back headphones go for their signature series, literally, if you want TOTL Closed-Back, Ultrasone it is, in general.

|I have very high hopes for the Empyrean, curious what it will do best and how

Imaqine a band touring and presenting new songs from an upcoming album and saying "This is not the final version, only a pre-production one. If you think it sucks, we'll change it".
