    A TIMELESS STATEMENT OF HI-FI

     

     

     
    “Empyrean was born from passion, curiosity and innovation. As a business, we have allowed ourselves the freedom to experiment and take risks in search of the perfect sound. To generate something truly remarkable, one must dare to explore, and that’s what we did with Empyrean. We pushed and refined industry’ standards and achieved a true game changer for audiophiles.”

    Antonio Meze, Lead designer and Founder Meze Audio
     
     

     

    Empyrean is the product of two passionate companies coming together to explore what is possible beyond their individual capabilities. The result is a no-compromise headphone embodying Meze’s daring aesthetic and user-centered design approach and Rinaro’s experience in research and development within the field of planar magnetics.

     

     

     

     

     

    Rinaro, a progressive audio company, has at the heart of its technology an R&D team that has been at the forefront of planar magnetic development since the 1980’s. What originally started as a state-funded initiative with a focus on innovation has now entered into a new chapter of audio progression with the opening of a cutting-edge industrial facility in Ukraine.
     

    ARCHITECTURE OF THE ISODYNAMIC® HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER

     
    FRAME 
    Fiberglass infused ABS
    RINARO ISOPLANAR® DIAPHRAGM 
    Weighing only 0.16 g while 
    having 4650 mm² of active area.
    HYBRID MAGNET ARRAY 
    Symmetrically placed on each side of the diaphragm, our neodymium magnets are specifically arranged into a Hybrid Array to create efficient Isodynamic magnetic field required for a uniform activation across the whole diaphragm surface.
     
     

    HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER ADVANTAGES

     
    Combines two independently shaped voice coils within the same diaphragm delivering more selective acoustic performance to the various areas within the structure of the ear.
     
     
    ACCURATE REPRODUCTION 
    Total harmonic distortion (THD) measures under 0.1% in the whole frequency range

     

    LIGHTWEIGHT 
    Reduced driver weight designed to create a headphone that offers prolonged listening sessions

     

    ERGONOMIC SHAPE 
    Ergonomically shaped driver structure with an increased active area

     

    ULTRA-HIGH-RESOLUTION AUDIO 
    Upper-frequency limit of audio reproduction is 110,000 Hz

     

    ULTRA EFFICIENT 
    100db@1mw/1kHz High performance without needing amplification

     

    PATENT PENDING ISODYNAMIC HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER 
    World's first in planar magnetic headphones
     
    Over 30 years of research and development have led to the creation of the first Isodynamic Hybrid Array driver. Meze Audio have collaborated with Rinaro to create a new standard in planar magnetic audio, the resulting technology being one of the lightest and most advanced planar magnetic drivers on the market.
     
    The Empyrean Driver combines individual switchback and spiral-shaped voice coils, their unique shapes allowing sound to be targeted with more accuracy around the natural form of the ear. This unique combination generates an increased exposure of direct sound wave frequencies over the 10kHz range and improves imaging and localization by decreasing the impact of shortwave time delays caused by diffused field reflections.
     

    AUDIBLE BENEFITS OF A DUAL DRIVEN SYSTEM

     
    One of the problems with conventional planar magnetic arrays is coming from reflected signals entering the ear canal with different time delays, thereby worsening the focus of 3D sound imaging.
    Combining different voice coil configurations makes it possible to create a better sound intensity distribution across the sound wavefront at high frequencies when directed at the auricle and ear canal.
     
     
     
    ISOPLANAR® DIAPHRAGM MATERIAL 
    The diaphragm is manufactured from a custom developed isotropic thermally stabilized polymer with a conductive layer. Through unique processing methods, an ultralight yet rigid diaphragm has been achieved.

     

    SWITCHBACK COIL 
    The switchback coil is more efficient at reproducing lower frequencies and is positioned in the upper part of the driver.

     

    SPIRAL COIL 
    The spiral coil is more efficient at reproducing middle-high frequencies and is positioned directly over the ear canal enabling more direct sound waves to enter the ear without any time delays.
     

    AN ERGONOMIC APPROACH LEADS TO A NEW WAY OF THINKING

     
    Anatomically designed ovate earcups
    Anthropometric earpad design
     
     

    To create an audiophile headphone that is powerful yet light the driver needed to maximize power output while reducing weight as much as possible.

     

     

    Weight was minimized by optimizing a magnet structure around an ovoid shape that fits the ear more closely. Power output was increased through the use of a completely bespoke coil and magnet array design that optimized the active usable area of the driver within its ovoid shape.

     

    ISOMAGNETIC® EARCUP TO EARPAD COUPLING TECHNOLOGY

     

    An innovative feature is the Isomagnetic® ear cup attachment which utilizes the demagnetizing field generated by the driver to hold the ear cup in place whilst also redirecting the magnetic field back into the driver and improving driver efficiency.

     

     

    Magnetic field shielding

    The ferromagnetic ear pads decrease the magnetic stray field affecting the listeners head.

     

    Increase in driver efficiency

    Patented ferromagnetic plates channel the magnetic field back into the driver, increasing output.

     

    Invisible locking system

    Innovative use of the magnetic field of the drivers to fix the earcups in place.
     
     

    STRAY FIELD REDUCTION FROM ISOMAGNETIC® PLATE COUPLING

    Patented ferromagnetic plates channel the demagnetizing field back into the driver increasing efficiency by 1db or 12% and deflect 95% of stray fields away from the head.
     

    ISODYNAMIC DRIVER MANUFACTURED BY RINARO

     
    Each driver has been hand assembled and tested in an industrial facility in Ukraine.
