WIN! A Meze Audio Liric II headphones worth £1,850, $2,000, €2,000
We have teamed up with the clever folks from hi-fi+ to bring you an exciting competition and a chance to win Liric II headphones worth £1,850! Simon Lucas reviewed these in hi-fi+ issue #234 (pages 53-56), writing, “These are relatively wide, relatively heavy headphones, and they feature magnetically attached earpads that are so generously padded that they contribute to that width quite significantly.
He added, “For Liric 2nd Generation, Meze Audio has developed what it calls the ‘Quarter Wavelength Resonator Mask’. This is, essentially, a metal plate that strategically covers some of the openings in the driver frame - the idea is that QWRM effectively attenuates high-frequency peaks for a smoother and less fatiguing listening experience. The Meze Audio offer brilliance and substance in pretty much equal measure - there’s bite and shine to treble sounds, but they’re robust enough to avoid any hardness or splashiness. And that’s true even if you decide to explore the outer edges of your source player’s output (incidentally, the Liric 2nd Generation are more than happy to play very loud indeed if you like, and without altering their sonic characteristics in the slightest as they do so). In between, the midrange is absolutely alive with detail both broad and fine - the insight into a vocalist’s technique, motivations, emotional state, attitude, character and all the rest of it is profound.”
He concluded the review by saying, “Leave your Meze Audio Liric 2nd Generation to get on with the serious business of providing all the indoor entertainment you might conceivably ever need.”
