Meze Audio Elite Aluminium

$4,000.00

Description

  Combining a unique design with advanced engineering, the Elite Aluminium headphones provide an accurate, lifelike audio experience for audiophiles. Meze Audio has been making headphones and earphones for 10 years with a focus on timeless aesthetics, maximum comfort, and vivid sound. Crafted with durable materials like aluminum, carbon fiber, and leather, the Elite features a patent-pending suspension wings support system for even weight distribution and an ultra-light feel for maximum comfort. This long-lasting headphone is the perfect choice for those seeking a high-quality, one-of-a-kind audio experience. The process of making a single aluminum skeleton takes about 20 hours. To that, we add days of inspecting each part of the headphone, assembling the parts, and ensuring the final product rises to our high standards. This can’t be achieved through mass-production, meaning delivery times can be longer, but we guarantee it’s worth it. ELITE is hand-assembled with care and painstaking attention to detail in Baia Mare, Romania. With a custom, newly designed driver, created by Rinaro Isodynamic, ELITE is the result of 3 years of research and development through which we strived to create a powerful, lifelike, and immersive experience that awakens the senses of the listener.

HYBRID MAGNET ARRAY The ELITE driver features Rinaro Parus®, an ultra-thin biaxially oriented semi-crystalline polymer film diaphragm. Magnets are symmetrically placed to create a 0.35 Tesla Isodynamic magnetic field, enabling uniform activation across the diaphragm. With this Isodynamic Hybrid Array Driver technology, sound waves are more accurately targeted, resulting in natural sound transparency and a wide, articulate soundstage. The improved definition and speed is due to biaxial lengthening technology, in which the polymer is stretched at high temperatures to create a complex semi-crystalline microstructure with remarkable strength, stiffness, and stability, along with an extremely low acoustic mass. .
