At its essence, life is a continuous voyage of transformation, a journey through the peaks and valleys of experience. People navigate this journey, sometimes in search of purpose, and at other times driven by it. While some events may appear confusing or chaotic, there are moments that possess a mysterious, almost otherworldly quality, bringing a sense of completeness. These moments, much like a dream or a piece of poetry, resonate deeply and leave a lasting impression.

The POET Headphones: A Harmonious Experience

The Meze POET Open back headphones are designed to tantalise the auditory senses with lush, airy vocals and precise bass impact, providing a balanced low-end. The natural tonality is subtly enhanced with delicate hints of sparkle, creating a vibrant character.

Excellent detail retrieval and separation bring music to life, making the POET a seamless blend of technical sophistication and emotional depth, allowing listeners to experience a harmonious and immersive soundscape.

Crafted for Perfection: Design and Build

POET represents a commitment to the craft of headphone design, with a focus on refining every aspect to perfection. It combines high-performance materials that enhance both form and function. The POET features the same cutting-edge diaphragm technology as the ELITE series, ensuring a top-tier listening experience.

The intricate patterns of the steel grille were carefully chosen to complement the finely-tuned audio, and the magnesium chassis adds both durability and aesthetic appeal. With its soft suede leather headrest and flexible titanium alloy headband, the POET delivers exceptional comfort and a secure, snug fit, ensuring a pleasurable listening experience during extended sessions.

Convenient Serviceability and Premium Accessories

To make maintenance and pad-swapping as simple and user-friendly as possible, the POET incorporates the magnetic ear pad system from the second-generation LIRIC model. This thoughtful integration allows for easy ear pad replacement, ensuring that your headphones remain in top condition.

 Additionally, the POET comes with a premium hand-braided copper cable, featuring a 6.3 mm termination, providing wide compatibility with desktop audio setups. This luxurious cable complements the overall quality of the headphones, completing the premium experience.

Testimonials

Bought some Rega Kyte speakers, stands and chords from DB online and they were incredibly helpful. They updated my delivery address very quickly and recommended a longer cut of cables which they did complimentary. They also noticed I didn’t order with banana plugs so called me back to double check, which I did mean to order. When i had some issues connecting my cables and speakers, I called for some advice which they happily gave. Excellent service and next day delivery to London. Thoroughly recommend.

Probably one of the best companies in the world. They had to special order in the speakers which took a fair bit of time, which is totally understandable, but they kept in touch with me throughout the entire time with updates (even on a Sunday!!!) and once the speakers were with them, they were dispatched and arrived next day.

The entire sound system that I purchased is insanely good, but still not as good as Doug Brady HiFi!

I have recently purchased a HiFi package with Doug Brady and I could not be more thrilled with my experience with them.
When I walked into the store, I was made to feel welcome and was introduced to some of the products. I produces a list of specific items I was interested in and John was really helpful in showing me these items. He set the system up so I could experience it, he made some suggestions which made the package even better. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him, he was very knowledgeable about the products and gave great advice. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything, or didn't feel that he was upselling at any point. I left with an amazing package and I'd like to thank John and the team for the fantastic experience.

It’s now two weeks since I bought home my new system and I wanted to say thanks again for all your help, advice and guidance, not to mention cups of tea. I now have a system that meets all my requirements and sounds fantastic. Special thanks to Jon, who I hope is on the road to recovery from his operation and to Roger, who helped me finalise my choice. The Rega Saturn, Hegel H190V and Dali Rubicon 2 is undoubtedly the best system I have ever owned.
