When industrial designer Antonio Meze realized over a decade ago that the headphone market wasn’t offering anything that would satisfy his sophisticated taste in sound and design, he decided to take matters into his own hands. Thus was born the Meze Audio brand, which quickly established itself as one of the most respected in the audiophile world. In 2015, they impressed with the Meze 99 Classics model, and the turning point came with the Empyrean, the first high-end planar-magnetic headphones that left the competition far behind – both in quality and price. This time, Meze Audio presents the POET.
