There’s already one.We need a new thread for the Empyrean Elite.
go back a few pages and you should see a link from about 4 or 5 days ago (i believe )
Bass much faster and perhaps more control , yes very good .Bass will be tighter/ more compact and much faster with the new driver
NOMAX
PS.lol
Bass tighter / more compact , I think that wanted
not so many hear here now
But I think we have to distinguish exactly here.
What is to be less is the basic tone of 120 to 350 Hertz .
But since the manufacturers cannot conjure , …
Optimal would of course be more or the same amount Bass ,
faster and more control and less upper Bass , lower mids tone ,
But maybe that's exactly the bass you described.

Additionally we have to keep in mind what changed the sound, if the more conpact bass is a result of New pads, that could be adjusted with th e leather pads of the Empyrean again.Bass much faster and perhaps more control , yes very good .

Right now, all speculation of course

Biggest question for me is if they will retain their ease to drive. That is a hinge part of their appeal for me, no other flagship that I know of can be driven so easily...

Welp, I was so wrong in my predictions. Too bad I bought the Empy new a month ago and now they are upgrading it. Wonder if there's a chance to upgrade the drivers to a current model Empyrean with the Elite ones.

I was about to get Empyreans but will now wait for more details about the Elite, hoping for a moderate price increase only.

I’ve been working with a dealer in Canada to secure a Jet Black. In speaking with him yesterday the Empyrean Elite price is $3999 USD and comes standard with the Meze PCUHD upgrade cable with your choice of the three termination options.I was about to get Empyreans but will now wait for more details about the Elite, hoping for a moderate price increase only.

Thanks for the info, that should translate to 4k€ in Europe through the magics of currency rates & VAT.

Looks like $4000 is the new norm for flagships.

At least...Looks like $4000 is the new norm for flagships.

$4000 is a good value, if it can compare with the top dogs. Maybe Utopia and D800 Pro, if not Abyss TC or Susvara.At least...

So how much is that within the dealer network discount? $2999 sounds good.I’ve been working with a dealer in Canada to secure a Jet Black.
