    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Damn these look good I really am such a sucker for these dark red stains/woods. I'm also amazed at how comfortable they are to wear for hours despite being quite hefty in the hand.

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    I think most of it ($160 for me) is just paying taxes at around 10%, which is unavoidable no matter which shipper is used, since we didn't pay any taxes on the intial purchase. The remaining ($20+tax) is the fee for DHL, which is only a little higher than Canada Post's usual $10+tax fee.

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    Good to know. I plan to start with figuring out the headphones I want to keep moving forward and then look at improving the rest of my stack. Just wanted to make sure the EL II wasn't a non-starter for technical reasons, rather than taste.

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    Is the JDS Element II powerful enough to power things like the Atrium and Caldera? It's my only amp currently and I do love how it looks on my desk, but I know it's not the most high-powered amp around.

    ZMF Atrium - new open-back co-flagship

    I listen to a lot of female-vocalist pop, along with musical soundtracks and a fair amount of classical. I adore the look of the AO, with the vents, would it be better suited to my taste in music than the AC?

    CanJam New York 2024 Impressions Thread (March 9-10, 2024)

    Interested to hear how they sound. Sadly something about the grill pattern makes my skin crawl (trypophobia ftw lol), so I don't think I'll be getting one, despite how much I'd love to have an open Bokeh to go along with the closed one.

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Mine should (hopefully) be shipping tomorrow! They were ready to ship last week, but I was moving this week and couldn't be sure I'd be at whichever address I shipped it to. Super excited!

    ZMF Spring Limiteds, CanJam NYC and Estimated Release Schedule for Caldera Closed and BOKEH Open!

    That Atrium Closed LTD looks absolutely beautiful. But as a recent purchaser of the Bokeh, I'm not sure I can justify another lovely closed set, when I've been searching for an open set of headphones for a while. (I would kill for the Caldera or Atrium Opens in that cocobolo wood.... I'm...

    I ordered on Dec 16th, so I'm going to be living vicariously through you all for a while lmao

    The Drinking Fountain - Full-Size Headphone Discussion

    I quite like my JDS Element 2 (the 3rd gen is out now). It's a very elegant and distinctive design and I love its simplicity. The giant volume knob is a bit devisive, but I like that I can reach over and quickly change the volume without looking away from whatever spreadsheet I'm working on.

    The Drinking Fountain - Full-Size Headphone Discussion

    For me, the appearance of a headphone can be an important factor, alongside comfort and sound. The look of most headphones are basically neutral for me, with a some being beautiful and a few being ugly as hell. A really good look won't save a headphone if it sounds like crap or is super...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Anyone know what number of orders they've shipped? Or how to find out what your own number would be out of the 250? I'm not expecting mine for a while, as I ordered quite late, I'm just curious. Can't wait for mine :)

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Pulled the trigger! Got the hybrid pads to go with it (I realized that I'm just unlikely to want to really fiddle with something like the mesh). And now to patiently wait :)

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Is the "burst mesh" on the Bokeh the same as the "radial mesh" in the DYI parts section of the zmf website? If not, what are its characteristics? I tried google, but wasn't able to find much.
