yea, it's awesome! ❤️

Just made me think of Donald Fagen's album "The Nightfly". Listening to it as a teenager and love it to this day. One of those albums where all the tracks are great and a wondefful listen end to end.. ❤️

So happy to hear that! Welcome! :beerchug: :beerchug: :beerchug:

It's a wonderful amp and great synergy! Congrats :beerchug:

Winding down after a long day with the Auris Nirvana + ATH-L5000 Switching it up for some fun country rock:

He switches across many styles. Here are a few samplers… YouTube clip of him playing "Caravan" in a duo with Josho Stephan (lots of great YouTube clips for him): For streaming... For a quiet ballad, he has an exquisite cover of the much covered song “Somewhere over the rainbow”: This...

Like Jim, for me the Susvara has peaked with the AIC10 (following doznes of amps I've tried with it over time).

I love Tommy Emmanuel, one of the most talent acoustic guitarist alive today. Saw him live in NYC a few months ago and it was electrifying. His improvisation skills and musicality are off the charts for me.

cool! :)

I haven't owned it, but I'd take a look at the Mola Mola Tambaqui. Every time I demo it, I'm struck by how spacious and open its presentation is, which may synergize well with a warm amp. @HONEYBOY has one that I know he loves; perhaps he can offer some insight. (I'd have gotten one a long time...

I agree I have a bunch of closed backs on hand - CC, AC, Rognir planar, L5000, L3000, AWKG - and when I get around to doing a more comprehensive writeup, I’ll try to drop some comparison notes. I think, for most folks, the distinction between the CC and AC, which have some very clear characters...

What DAC are you currently using, and what are you thinking of potentially upgrading to?

I currently use Philips Miniwatt GZ34 (Sittard factory, 1968, black base, DD getter). Input tubes are Tung-Sol 6SU7GTY (1950-52). Which amp are you using it with? I have yet to try this brand.

Very cool. Never tried those. Will put on my To Do list.. 🙏

What output tubes are you currently rolling with the Aegis? I’ve had the Mullard EL37 for awhile and they are exquisite, airy, refined . Recently switched to Tung-Sol made RCA 6550 that have more texture and bass, and going to switch to Shu Guang WEKT88 Plus next.

Thanks. Very happy after my firsy day with it! 🙏❤️ Great writeup. Thanks for sharing!!

I'm really curious to try these now... (and, as a bonus, these looks really cool:smile_phones:)

Like....? 😉

Just got the Sony NW-WM1ZM2 at many good Head-Fi friends' recommendation. Other than a gorgeous presentation all the IEMs I've tried it with today, I found it also has a wonderful synergy with the very easy to drive Audio-Technica ATH-AWKG. Following in the footsteps of @HiFiHawaii808 and...

Great seller. Quick communcation, product well packaged, and arrived as described. Happy to recommend!

BRAND NEW SP3000T Open box Bought it a week ago from MusicTeck. Has about 10 hours use. Perfect new condition. Amazing DAP with goreous tube sound for mid and low sensitivity IEMs. No screen savers (were beyond my fat finger's skill) PayPal and Shipping included - US only. NO TRADES

Small thread admin note.. I changed the thread name to "ZMF Atrium Closed" (from "ZMF Atrium Closed - the latest closed back headphone from ZMF"), both for the sake of accuracy and for simplicity, so future users can easily find it. keep it going! :beerchug: :beerchug: :beerchug:

9 amps here at the moment... (that's when I don't have 1-2 extra for testing) I came to terms with it. I used to go to AA meetings (Amplifiers Anonymous) but it didn't work... 🤷‍♂️

I love Emmet Cohen, he's one of the best young jazz pianists emerging on the scene in recent years; so talented. Everyone, whether you like jazz or haven't yet found that you do, I highly recommend his YouTube channel - for the past few years, he's been posting live shows from his apartment with...

Looks cool.. pls share any impressions if/when you have them 🙏
