Meze Audio Poet Wired Planar Magnetic Headphones: An Audiophile’s Dream

The Meze Audio Poet Wired Planar Magnetic Headphones offer an immersive audio experience crafted for discerning audiophiles. Merging cutting-edge Rinaro Isodynamic® Hybrid Array driver technology with exquisite design, these open-back headphones provide a lush, detailed sound signature that resonates with emotion and clarity. Designed with high-performance materials and ergonomic comfort, the Meze Poet redefines your listening journey, making it the perfect companion for both studio and home use.

Exceptional Sound with Rinaro Isodynamic® Hybrid Array Drivers

The Meze Audio Poet utilizes the Rinaro MZ6 Isodynamic® Hybrid Array driver, developed exclusively for Meze Audio by RINARO ISODYNAMICS. With over 30 years of planar magnetic technology expertise, the MZ6 driver is a masterpiece of innovation. It combines the best features of the award-winning MZ4 and MZ3SE drivers, delivering superior resolution, rich detail, and precise imaging. The dual-driven voice coil system optimizes sound intensity, ensuring a balanced and natural soundstage. Whether you're diving into complex orchestral compositions or enjoying the subtle nuances of acoustic music, the Poet delivers an extraordinary auditory experience.

Ultra-High Resolution and Low Distortion

Experience music as the artist intended with an ultra-high-resolution audio range of 4 Hz to 96 kHz. The Poet’s unique dual-driven voice coil system enhances spatial imaging, offering precise localization within the reproduced sound field. With total harmonic distortion (THD) under 0.05% across the entire frequency range, the Poet ensures clean, distortion-free playback. Whether you're listening to the deepest bass notes or the most delicate high-frequency details, every nuance is rendered with pristine accuracy.

Lightweight and Durable Design

Crafted from premium materials, the Meze Poet combines beauty and durability in one package. The magnesium chassis and fiberglass-reinforced polymer housing provide a lightweight yet robust build, making the headphones comfortable for long listening sessions. Weighing just 350 grams (without earpads), the Poet distributes weight evenly, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. The flexible titanium alloy headband and soft suede leather headrest further enhance wearing comfort, making the Poet a joy to wear, even during extended use.

Magnetic Ear Pads and Premium Cable for Seamless User Experience

The Meze Poet features a magnetic ear pad system inherited from the 2nd Generation LIRIC, allowing users to easily swap and service the pads. The circumaural ear coupling ensures a secure and comfortable seal around the ears, enhancing sound isolation and immersive audio experience. Additionally, the Poet comes with a premium hand-braided copper cable featuring a 6.3 mm termination, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of desktop audio setups. The high-quality cable guarantees minimal signal loss, preserving the purity and integrity of the audio signal.

Designed for Life and Sustainability

Meze Audio emphasizes sustainability and longevity with the Poet’s fully serviceable design. Every part of the headphone chassis can be disassembled and serviced, ensuring that your investment lasts for years to come. From replaceable earpads to the durable headband and premium materials, the Poet is crafted with a sense of responsibility towards the environment. Whether you're an audiophile, music producer, or casual listener, the Poet provides a luxurious listening experience without compromising on sustainability.

Award-Winning Technology and Collaboration

The Meze Poet is a testament to Meze Audio’s collaboration with RINARO ISODYNAMICS, synthesizing the essence of the ELITE’s driver technology into a more compact form. Featuring the Rinaro Parus® diaphragm and Hybrid Magnet Array, the Poet delivers a precise, natural sound that rivals flagship models.

Hazel O. ★★★★★

The soundstage on these is incredibly wide, making it easy to pick out individual instruments in a busy mix. I’ve been listening for hours and my ears don’t feel fatigued at all, which is a big plus for me.

Harper ★★★★★

Compared to my old dynamics, the planar magnetic driver delivers a soundstage so wide it feels like the band is set up in my living room. The natural timbre of acoustic instruments comes through with a realism I haven't heard before.

Claire ★★★★★

The bass hits with incredible clarity and depth, and the planar magnetic drivers make even complex tracks sound effortless. These are easily the most comfortable headphones I've owned for long listening sessions.
