Angeboten wird „EMPYREAN I- Brand New“ von Meze Audio als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Kopfhörer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 4210387457 endet am 12.07.2026 um 12:25 Uhr.
At €1,690, this used Meze Empyrean sits at the new retail price point, making it a tough sell against fresh stock with full warranty—unless condition is pristine. Against our recent comps (median €956, 25th-75th €588-€1,323), it's ambitiously priced for the used market; expect 40-60% off new for average wear, so negotiate down to €1,000-€1,200 if pads and cable are included.
Buyers, verify earpad condition first—these velour beauties compress over time, dulling bass and comfort; replacements run €150+. Check the stock 3m cable for microphonics or frays, and confirm original box/serial matches for authenticity. Age over 2-3 years warrants a burn-in test for driver balance. Skip if no return policy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Meze Audio traces its roots to 2011, when Romanian industrial designer Antonio Meze founded the company in the northern city of Baia Mare. Born from his passion for music and innovative design, Meze initially launched under the name Meze Headphones before evolving into Meze Audio. This heritage reflects a blend of Eastern European craftsmanship and a drive to elevate personal audio beyond conventional boundaries.
The brand specializes exclusively in headphones and earphones, eschewing amplifiers, speakers, or other hi-fi categories. Iconic models like the Empyrean, developed in collaboration with Ukrainian engineers at Rinaro for advanced planar magnetic drivers, exemplify their focus on planar and dynamic designs. Standouts such as the 99 Classics, 109 Pro, and more accessible options like the 105 AER deliver signature bass authority, spacious soundstaging, and meticulous tuning tailored for discerning listeners.
Meze Audio commands a strong position in the high-end headphone market as a niche boutique leader, prized by audiophiles for striking industrial aesthetics and reference-grade performance. Their products have garnered design awards, rave reviews from major publications, and a global following through word-of-mouth and retail channels, positioning them as a force that challenges premium pricing norms with unwavering quality.
