Art / Science

Emotion is the measure. Engineering is how we get there.

Like a fine wine, each speaker begins with human judgement and is refined through exacting craft and measurement.

A guided range

Start with how and where you listen.

Model codes come second. Room, system and purpose come first. These three starting points show how a simpler product journey could work.

Microphase founder and loudspeaker designer Jean-Marie Lière

A lifetime spent listening

Designed by a person, for people.

Jean-Marie Lière began designing loudspeakers in France in the 1970s. More than four decades later, he brings that musical memory and engineering discipline to every pair assembled in Australia.

The result is something rare in audio: direct access to the designer. Tell Jean-Marie about your room, studio, system and music. He’ll help you find the most useful place to begin.
