Know before you buy
While closed-back headphones typically have a more intimate sound, the LIRIC II utilizes the Phase-X™ system to minimize phase distortion. This technology helps create a wider, more natural soundstage that mimics the spatial imaging usually found in open-back designs.
Yes, the LIRIC II features a redesigned magnetic attachment system for the earpads. This allows you to easily remove and replace them yourself without needing specialized tools or adhesive.
Yes, the LIRIC II is designed to be versatile. While they benefit from a high-quality dedicated amplifier, their efficiency allows them to be driven effectively by most modern high-resolution portable players and smartphones.
The MZ4 driver combines two different shaped voice coils within the same diaphragm, allowing for more precise targeting of specific frequency ranges. This results in a balanced, warm sound signature with exceptionally low distortion across the entire spectrum.
The Macassar ebony wood serves as a premium aesthetic touch that makes each pair unique, but it also contributes to the overall build quality. The headphones are constructed with a lightweight magnesium skeleton to ensure they remain comfortable for long listening sessions despite the high-end materials.
The package includes two high-quality cables: a hand-braided cable with a 4.4mm balanced termination for high-end audio players, and a 3-meter soft TPE cable with a standard 3.5mm connector for home use.
