If you are dressed half way nice and act politely, you can go into any high class location and listen to what they have. I've gone into stores and listened to hifi systems that cost well over $100k, and it's interesting and educational to listen to various types of speakers and headphones. The smart salesman out there will understand that even if you can't afford it now, you might someday down the road, and many are just enthusiastic about their products and music. It's also helpful to understand that while the super expensive setups sound nice, you can get some of that performance with a much cheaper system.

this is why I like watching Zeos, his review is barely informative, he's just conveying the emotion and experience he has at the time. and for me, audio is about as much as the emotional experience as it is objectively sound good.

I bought mine second hand half price. They sound like pure magic. They make me want to find all the music I can and listen to it all. They make me want to lay in bed and stay up all night listening to them. They truly are all genre headphones. And while they may not be technically the best headphones they are the best listening experience. They are so comfortable, I could fall asleep on a 17 hour flight and not feel fatigued wearing them. The old owner messaged me to buy them back from me. He wanted the elites back after getting susvara. And frankly I don't blame him but I'll never give these up, I'll use them till I die.

I still remember when a company wouldnt send you a set of speakers after you requested them, and instead of trashing them and reviewing a dozen other things, you went out and bought them and STILL gave them a great review. If anyone deserves a comped Flagship Meze, it's you Z.

I'm a simple guy. These headphones are out of my budget, but I am very satisfied with my Moondrops. Zeos' description of these headphones are how I feel about the Dusk. The Sparks aren't bad either, as a 11.11 deal I got them with the case for $90. I am no audiophile, but I do know that I like what I'm hearing.

I learned recently the limits of chasing technicalities with the LCD-5s I had and sent back. Detail matters sure, but if the tunning and comfort aren't enjoyable OTB its not really worth it for me. I kept going back to my Empyrean and LC-XCs which were a relief. I keep thinking about Susvara but get the sense it might be also a bit unfun, even if more resolving.

The Susvara are definitely more technical and are significantly pickier with amps (my current desktop amp will need an upgrade to get the most out of them). Meze are still the most comfortable cans I've worn and are still no slouch by comparison.

I'm yet to try the Elite's but they are on my radar. I have the copper upgrade cable for the original Empyrean's (same as the one you have there) and they sound lovely; so well made. I also preferred the Alcantara pads with the original Empyrean with the stock or copper upgrade cable. However...I recently got the Silver (Plated Copper) Upgrade Cable from Meze and they really opened up the sound and detail without adding any hint of brightness. I actually much prefer the Leather pads with that silver cable - it really is quite a big upgrade to my ears. I bought them to use with the Elite's when I eventually get them but I really enjoy them on the originals as well. I would try them if you get a chance. It's relatively inexpensive since the headphones were free for you :) Thanks for the review - it's nice to see another confirmation that the Elite's retain the emotion of the Empyreans.

When was the last time you got lost, and I mean really got LOST in your music. Like the song ends, you open your eyes, and for a split a second, you don't know where you are, because a second ago you were floating in the music you were listen to. I've never had any experience like that before the elite. With the elite, I often start off listening to music while doing something else, but then slowly, I am seduced by the music. Entranced, I would come to mb 4-7 songs later, only to find myself stop doing completely w/e I was doing, I open my eyes, and for a split second, I would be lost. Like zeos said, the elite will not be the most technically amazing headphone, but I think the elite is the most enjoyable headphone.

I traded my Empyrean to an Elite recently. The basic and un-impressiveness make this headphone easy to listen for long period. I am lucky enough to have tried almost all the top tier headphones on the market, but I keep coming back to Empyrean because it is "basic". I would choose rice over caviar if I can only choose one food, it's not about good or bad, just what is conforming in the end.

they really are super basic and unimpressive :'D I heard the empyreans and while they sound good comparing sound side by side to utopias the utopias were really special. like i see the empyreans as an upgraded version of hd6xx's you are so spot on with this, they are kinda neutral and very easy to listen to - which is what redeems them, i also compared the lcd4's and while i dont really like the sound they were also special in a way the empyreans are not in sound. the problem for me with empyreans is that you want them to sound like they look, but they dont. they dont sound bad by any means, i think they are better than the hd800's for my taste (and not really similar) but soundwise they should be priced around the same. Zeos tends to like neutral stuff already so he has a bias there. and these are really easy to gush over, like these are perfect easy listening for the average person who wants a 3500 pair of headphones without any complications or nuance. but to me he does a disservice with some of these reviews. Like i was super hyped to try the empyreans after listening to his review. and seriously hyped to buy them if they REALLY were THAT unique as their price bracket and design suggests. but at 3000-4000 the price is a little gross for the sound you get, in that i felt i was misled a little or there was some slight of hand going on. would i love them yes, would i say no to them definitely not, i would even manage to enjoy them at their greatly inflated price because in all of his hyperbole Z does get one thing right they are easy to listen to and stunning to own. do they look and feel premium and lovely yes. but i LISTEN to utopias or lcd4's and i feel like im forking out a fuckton more money than i should be for these - they just dont seem to be ambitious technically, you dont get that separation, clarity, quality of bass, detail. mostly because these arent trying to achieve it. if this is purely a luxury product review where hey they will cost X because you will get a great product in amazing packaging/quality gucci prada etc. that to me is actually more palatable and honest than telling me about how much effort they put into manufacturing this product and using that to justify the price - even if it does (which it doesnt). just feels a bit snake oily and dirty. you hit the nail on the head. and while this opinion may sound incredibly negative ill say i might still want to own a pair because there is a beauty simplicity and elegance to them still, but its hard to market a product by saying "these really arent that good but still kind of worth it if youre rich" and probably wouldnt get you a free pair from meze.

Request for advice. I have some SHP9500 + Syba DAC AMP and recently obtained DT 1990 PRO + Focusrite Solo for gaming (they were on sale ) It came to my attention that I cant properly push the 1990s And after comparing SHP9500 with DT1990 on both Syba and Focusrite I noticed that the SHP9500s sounded better (probably because they are being pushed correctly) I'm wondering if I should return the DT1990 or get a proper stack/DAC amp to push them correctly?

I just ordered a Singxer SA1 on Amazon. The only headphones I have are B&W P7. I want it, SA1, mainly for a preamp. I've got an Avantone CLA200 Amp & Tannoy XT8F towers. My Tannoy's have been in their shipping boxes about 2 years never used. Why? I can't afford this shit.

Based on everything I've heard about these, I still find it hard to believe that they'd be better for gaming than EQ'd HD800S. Without EQ tho, I could see how it'd be more immersive (better bass).

@@sebanambrus9265 hD800s sounds horrible in low end than even the xm4s tws. No bass and simply horribly thin sounding. Arya and clears are way better than those bass less trash cans. Keep talking about technicalities and keep HPs that can't even produce decent low end which even a 150$ HPs can reproduce And yes, I heard HD600 and 650s. They don't even come close no matter how much you spend on amps. Why should anyone bother about some low end overhyped sennheisers that can't even come close to Sundaras and Edition Xs?
