From Romania with love, the Meze Audio ADVAR

Meze Audio ADVAR (featured)

Editor’s brief: Romania has the ignoble affiliation with VLAD III of Wallachia (or Vlad the Impaler). But Romania is so much more than the fable. It is host to one of the largest forest areas in Europe, making it a “lung” for the world. It is also a tech powerhouse, with aviation, microbiology, insulin, etc. It is also a co-owner of the International Space Station. And for all of us hifi audio fans, Romania is also home of Meze Audio, the iconic audio brand that just launched its ADVAR dynamic driver IEM (in ear monitor). ADVAR, is Romanian for an amulet or talisman, signifying its symbolic importance in the world of ultra-portable hifi audio. Read more below.

“When we developed ADVAR, our goal was to create something meaningful. A piece of audio that’s artful, spiritual, and timeless. I think the result we achieved reflects the spirit of Meze Audio so well.” shared Antonio Meze, Lead Designer & Founder Meze Audio.

The exterior design of the chassis, made of solid stainless steel, was influenced by organic forms found in nature, such as the smooth hematite mineral. Ease of insertion and removal, as well as reduced discomfort during extended listening, are all hallmarks of the ergonomic design philosophy underlying all Meze Audio products.
