You don't need to miss Gavin, he's drumming with King Crimson and they're touring.

 
Yeah, I know he's been with KC for a bit.  But, try as I might, I can't really get into KC.  It's probably due to the same gene that doesn't let me enjoy SW solo stuff.  lol

In your opinion he what are the needs/wants/likes that are better suited for eikon vs Atticus ?


To my ears the Atticus is for when you want a smooth, warm, relaxing sound. The Eikon is more neutral but still very musical and never harsh or strident. Or if you prefer a food analogy: Atticus = comfort food, Eikon = fine dining. Both are good, but for different reasons.

Gavin is excellent, for sure. I think Marco may be the finest drummer on the planet, however. Check out his work with The Aristocrats....

Danny Carey from Tool, nuff said.
 
Edit: that dude is so polyrythmic it is almost incomprehensible. Combine that with speed, power, finese, nuance and an indefinable character that never stops moving without over-playing and the guy is beyond sick, orders of magnitude sick. He can also play jazz or whatever style, but I don't think there are many jazz drummers that could bang out some of his work.

For a second there, I thought you meant Lord Marco of such bands as Six Feet Under, Anomalous, Brain Drill, etc... Google proved otherwise. Well, Lord Marco is still one of my favorites, and Gavin is incredible. I bought his weird jazz cover album of PT songs. Can't really listen to it. Just too weird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJCPiNby-DY

That feeling when you are 72 on the list and it's only been 2 weeks. :triportsad:

Well get ready to move up a bit as we are shipping a number of headphones in the next few days. :L3000: We also are not doing any major shows for the foreseeable future to concentrate on orders and get these out as fast as possible.

They're worth it. Really great sounding and looking cans, made with care. Thanks Zach!

hmmm..."damn" as a 3-syllable word. Guessing you like that amp/HP combo.

Also guessing there's no need for an impedance adapter w/that elevated example of "Tube Town."

That would be putting it mildly! The ZMFs sound good with pretty much all of the Ampsandsound amplifiers, in my experience. I definitely had a "moment" with the Agartha last night though! The music was flowing!

300b tubes though. So expensive!
