    @zach915m Just when I thought I was out of the headphone game, you pull me back in :)

    ZMF Auteur Thread

    Was the clamp too loose? It can be adjusted by bending the headband into more of a V shape. I've let my 12 year old niece use my Auteur and it fits her fine despite the cups being nearly the size of her head

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    I think you’ll enjoy the combination and will find them different enough to justify keeping both. I also bought them blindly as i had only heard the Eikon. The Eikon was impressive enough that i knew the Auteur would be an improvement, given that it uses the same driver and is open. Atticus...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Only one I’ve tried is Howard Feed-N-Wax, which is a combination of beeswax and orange oil. It’s the highest rated wood care kit on Amazon. I used it with a soft microfiber cloth that’s similar in texture to eye glass cloths. I’m also interested in seeing how wax affects barnyard cherry or...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    If anyone is looking to give their headphones a little extra shine, I highly recommended polishing them with wood wax. It’s a fairly simple process that I did for all my headphones. The wax can be applied every couple months to keep the wood looking like new. The color contrasts and grain...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    I went to the Schiitr yesterday hoping to get a sneak peak of the upcoming products. Sad to report that there is nothing new... yet.

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    I'm not a metal fan, so is there a specific sound signature you prefer for that genre? I would encourage you to try out the sr60 driver to see what you like or don't like about it. My girlfriend gave me an sr60e that I intended to mod, but I could not stand the treble spikes or lack of sub...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Only pads I have for comparison are the flat foam grado pads that came with my sr60e. The interior of these wool pads is made of a softer and thinner wool than the outside. I would compare them to microsuede but I never get itchy with wool. Unfortunately my leather pads from other headphones...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Thanks for the help David. It was actually much easier than I expected. Here's the final product. Cups are Leopardwood from SpinAF. Gimbals from ShipiboAudio. Pads and Headband from BeautifulAudio. And the driver is of course Nhoord :) Got to say it's the most comfortable headphone...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Noob question here. I tried googling but I'd feel much more comfortable getting an answer from someone here. I'm building Nhoord headphones with detachable mini xlr cables. I chose this because I already have ZMF and Audeze cables. Question is, what poles on the jack do I solder the driver...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    I contacted Jaco and he responded immediately. He said he's still in business and his website was transferred to a new server, which explains the issues over the past few days. Looks like searching for the website on Google works now

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Anyone know if Nhoord is still in business? I was hoping to buy drivers but the website is down

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Ha I've actually thought about bringing my atticus to work, but I dread all the questions that I'll probably be asked. You paid how much? How can you afford that while working here? Why are they so big? Why didn't you just buy Beats? They're wireless No thank you

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Agreed. The cups protrude so much from the head that I can imagine accidentally bumping into things and scratching them. Not the worth the risk imo for such an expensive pair of cans

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    I already have an Atticus, but down the line I would love to see a ZMF headphone in Leopard Wood
