Following the path of standard-setting ELITE and LIRIC open-back Meze headphones new POET again brings the unrivaled transparency and openness of true planar sound into luxury headphones market. Planar headphones use a tensioned flat sound radiation surface which is driven uniformly as opposed to limited surface contact of a cylindrical voice coil in a regular electrodynamic driver.
New driver design by Rinaro
Distributing exciting force evenly on the same plane (planarmagnetic principle) the Rinaro MZ6 driver uses a thin lightweight elastic membrane with the conductive metal pattern etched on its service. Uniform magnetic field is produced by a complex array of small rare earth permanent magnets mounted in a special holding fixture on both sides of the moving membrane.
The biaxially oriented, semi-crystalline polymer film diaphragm of MZ6 weights only 0.06 g and has a sound radiation area of 3507 mm². Practically zero mass and huge radiating surface makes magic with the reproduced music, with incredible clarity, speed and airiness.
New hybrid array drive is a design feature aimed to extend the frequency extremes by cleverly implementing two etched voice coils, one thicker, current carrying, for deeper bass and another, smaller, on-axis with your ear canal for high definition treble.
The holistic POET solution
Open-back headphone design makes the new POET lightweight, compact and comfortable to wear. Luxury materials throughout provide long-term reliability and user comfort. Detachable magnetic ear pads make cleaning or replacement a snap. Premium hand-braided copper cable is included, ensuring uncompromised sound quality and durability.
With its uncanny transparent and enveloping sound the new Meze POET is a worthy contender for any high end headphone listening system.
