Know before you buy
No, this kit is specifically engineered for the Meze Audio Liric headphones. It will not fit other models in the Meze lineup due to the unique structural requirements of the Liric suspension system.
You will need a T6 Torx screwdriver to install the included M2 x 10mm screws. The kit comes with all the necessary hardware, but you must provide your own screwdriver.
The symmetrical '+' shape creates channels that promote airflow across the top of your head. This design effectively reduces heat and humidity buildup, making it much more comfortable for long listening sessions.
No, the protein leather and internal components are not washable. We recommend wiping the headband down with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its condition.
The kit is a complete replacement set that includes both the high-quality protein leather headband and the steel spring band. It is designed to fully restore the structural integrity of your headphones.
