To achieve this, the Quarter Wavelength Resonator Mask (QWRM) was developed, a precision-crafted metal component that strategically covers select openings in the driver frame, to effectively attenuate high-frequency peaks above 7kHz for a less fatiguing listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInspired design\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eComing from a tradition of Maramures craftsmanship, Meze decided to preserve the design language of the original LIRIC, but warm it up with the introduction of wood for the ear cups. This journey led them to discover the most potent fit in Macassar ebony –a heavy, dense, aesthetically pleasing hardwood known for its deep, rich brown coloration punctuated by intricate golden-brown stripes. The distinctive nature of Macassar ebony means that each pair is inherently sui generis, or unique in its essence. This characteristic ensures that every headphone is not just a tool for experiencing music, but a personal statement piece with its own story and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned for life\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn the spirit of natural evolution, LIRIC (2nd Generation) joins the Meze Audio family of products with detachable magnetic ear pads.
