Meze Audio ELITE-TUNGSTEN - Black

Description

Reference-class audiophile headphones with isodynamic technology
The Meze Elite Tungsten embodies acoustic excellence and premium craftsmanship. Designed to deliver an authentic, ultra-precise sound reproduction, it features the Rinaro Isodynamic Hybrid Array® MZ3SE driver, capable of covering a frequency range from 3 Hz to 112 kHz with less than 0.05% total harmonic distortion. The open-back, circumaural architecture creates a wide, realistic soundstage, perfectly suited to the most demanding listening sessions.

Rinaro Parus® diaphragm and optimized dual-coil design
At the heart of the Elite Tungsten lies the ultralight Rinaro Parus® diaphragm, weighing only 0.11 g with an active surface area of 4,650 mm². Crafted from a biaxially oriented polymer film, it offers exceptional rigidity and extremely low acoustic mass. The spiral coil, positioned directly above the ear canal, enhances mid and high frequencies, while the switchback coil delivers deep, controlled bass with remarkable accuracy.

Premium materials and long-term comfort
A carbon fiber and genuine leather headband, combined with interchangeable earpads in angled Alcantara or hybrid perforated leather/Alcantara, ensures lasting comfort even during extended sessions. The chassis, CNC-machined from a single block of aluminum, is coated with tungsten-colored Cerakote®, known for its exceptional resistance to scratches, UV exposure, and wear.

Innovative attachment system and magnetic efficiency
The Isomagnetic® mounting system secures the earpads using the driver’s magnetic field while redirecting it back into the driver for improved efficiency. With a sensitivity of 101 dB SPL/mW and an impedance of 32 Ω, the Elite Tungsten can be paired with a wide range of audio sources, with or without dedicated amplification.

A design inspired by the durability of tungsten
The tungsten finish symbolizes strength and longevity—core values of Meze Audio. Combining timeless aesthetics, reference-level sound performance, and superior comfort, this headphone delivers an uncompromising listening experience designed to last for years to come.
