Mirph Designs MIRPH-1 review
mirphdesigns.com/products/mirph-1

I've somehow made a fairly significant pricing error in this one. The correct price of the MIRPH-1 is 699 euros. Strangely, my USD conversion is correct so I have no idea how I got the wrong number in there for the euro pricing.

In this video, I’m reviewing the Mirph Designs MIRPH-1, a stunning open-back dynamic driver headphone that blends nostalgic 1970s aesthetics with modern high-end manufacturing. Priced at $749 USD, the Mirph-1 offers a luxurious, plush fit that reminds me of a premium leather couch. Unlike the fragile vintage gear of my youth, these are fully repairable, ensuring long-term durability for any audiophile investment.

Sonically, the MIRPH-1 delivers a rich, full-bodied tonality and "vintage vibe" without sacrificing resolution. With a 32-ohm impedance, they are easy to drive on portable gear like the Hiby R6 Pro or desktop setups. I compare them to the HiFiMan HE600 and HEDD D1, discussing how the Mirph-1’s authoritative bass and natural depth provide a more engaging, "live" musical experience. If you value musicality, warmth, and exceptional soundstage depth, the Mirph-1 is a must-listen. It has officially earned my Passion for Sound Recommended badge!
