    ZMF Verite Closed-New Closed Back ZMF Flagship.

    I'm glad they came out looking as they should because I'm quite new to using a lightbox. You can see the amateur-ish glare on the Desert Purple unit that I couldn't get rid of.

    ZMF Aeolus Impressions thread

    Sapele is so lovely though. Reminds me of the mahogany bodies of Gibson guitars.

    ZMF Verite Open

    Still figuring out how to use a lightbox effectively, but wanted to show off this shot of my personal favourite Verite combination!

    ZMF Verite Open

    Looking forward to this. Doing audio shows in the UK has shown me that the ZMF sound resonates with the market here, and I fully expect this will continue that trend.

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Stillhart's above post is right. I have a business to run and enough on my plate in my private life that I really don't want the added perception problem that comes with reviewing rival products. So I've made a decision that I'm announcing on YouTube soon. I'm going to retire from reviewing...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Currently I'm leaning on continuing reviewing on my private blog and YouTube but disclosing the ZMF affiliation whenever I tackle another full-sized headphone. I can't review ZMF anymore, however, as it just doesn't seem right to me. There's also another brand or two that I will avoid talking...

    Inspire IHA-1 tube headphone amp

    Have you tried 6F8Gs? I greatly prefer them overall for pre-amp tubes.

    I've posted it on Head-fi as well, but here's my review of the IHA-1.

    Introduction The IHA-1 is the concoction of Dennis Had, formerly of Cary Audio, who has a reputation in the audio community for his tube power amps. After Drew Baird, CEO of Moon Audio, used an Audeze LCD-3 to showcase to Dennis just how far headphone technology had come, he decided to give a...

    Focal Clear headphones

    I do believe so. I compared them here if it helps.

    Focal Clear headphones

    Aornic, you gotta mod these in order to bring out their true strength. Add a extra magnet on the back. Make sure to replace the hm5 hybrids, they really open up the head phone, improve resolution, and fixes the FR. Lastly you need 400 burn in hours minimum. I recommend 1500 hours. Usually 1...

    Thanks to SCV Distribution for lending me this unit to review I previously owned the Focal Elear and now have a Utopia as a daily driver and reference headphone.

    Inspire IHA-1 tube headphone amp

    This amp isn't balanced. Both outputs sound exactly alike. Furthermore, if you plug in two headphones at once it doesn't degrade the signal from when only one is inserted either.

    I'm curious about the WE 274B but I'm very happy with my metal base GZ34 + 6F8G pairing in the meantime.
