Meze Elite Peacock – Limited Edition The Elite Peacock is one of the most exclusive interpretations of Meze’s flagship headphone. Inspired by the success of the Elite Chameleon released in 2022—of which only 22 units were produced, including one owned by Alan Parsons—this edition takes the concept further, merging technical purity with an exceptional, color-shifting finish. Exclusive Peacock Finish Built on the new grey Tungsten frame of the Elite, the Peacock Edition features specially crafted grills that change color depending on the angle of light. Each unit is individually numbered and produced in an extremely limited run, making it as visually distinctive as it is rare. Included are Meze’s new angled Alcantara earpads as well as a high-end Meze x Furukawa silver-copper cable. Buyers can choose their preferred termination at checkout (2.5 / 3.5 / 4.4 / 6.3 mm or XLR). Elite Performance in Its Purest Form At its core, the Elite Peacock remains a full Elite: it uses Meze’s Isodynamic Hybrid Array® driver technology developed in collaboration with Rinaro Isodynamics. The MZ3SE driver is among the most advanced in the high-end world, with each unit requiring more than 100 hours of development, testing, and fine-tuning in Ukraine before final assembly in Romania. The result is a sound signature defined by precision, transparency, and natural spaciousness—an effortless, realistic presentation aimed at the highest demands of the modern audiophile. Materials and Craftsmanship The Elite Peacock follows Meze’s long-term philosophy: to build products that last. The ultra-light carbon fiber headband with a genuine leather headrest ensures comfort, while the tungsten-finished frame and iridescent grills create a striking visual identity. Every component of the Elite is fully serviceable. Pads, headband, frame parts, and driver modules can all be replaced individually. The Elite Peacock is designed to endure and remain a long-term companion rather than follow fleeting trends. Innovative Earpads The Elite offers two earpad options, each enabling a different sonic profile: Angled Alcantara® (included) Provides an open, airy character with natural vocal presence. Hybrid (Leather exterior perforated Alcantara® interior) Adds warmth and body while maintaining the Elite’s balance. Both use Rinaro’s Isomagnetic® attachment system, which secures the pads while improving driver efficiency.
