Maybe we’re misunderstanding each other: mine won’t look better years down the line because it has a small chip missing. I don’t care about it “maturing” and getting darker, it’ll be fine either way. Other than the chunk missing, it looks beautiful and sounds even better. How did the chip break...

I really regret getting the cherry wood now, as I've got a small chip out of it already. I don't want to send it back to get the wood repaired, if that's even an option, because I absolutely can't go weeks or months without it. The chip doesn't affect the sound at all, but in the future I will...

Tube amps are like magic with all Sennheiser and ZMF headphones.

Feliks Audio Elise $2000-I feel extremely lucky getting mine 7 years ago for $650. I felt it was a $2000 amp back then and still do, especially with the extras added in version 2. Listening to it right now.

Just listened to Chris Standring's "Ten". Very nicely mixed album!

Original OG LAu was 5k; As I listen right now to Quincy Jone's "Walking In Space" on the "X" and ZMF Atriums I'm thinking about the differences...........OG had extra outputs, extra inputs-that's it. The sound is the same.........How exactly do you remake an amp to sound EXACTLY like a previous...

I would say he probably didn't like the sound pre burn in but he says they had 100 hours of burn in so maybe bad amplification? i dunno

double post, sorry

Former original LAu owner here. I didn't get to compare the two side-by-side but the Monoprice version has outstanding sound quality which is very close if not right there with the original. As magical as a solid state amp can get. My main complaint, which I mentioned earlier in this thread is...

What was your order number? Mine was 7661. I think I was able to order 15-20 minutes a before 10am, when it was scheduled to go live. I made the mistake because I'm on the east coast and I thought it was 10:45

Stick with perforated for the Atrium, all of the solid pads take the bass unnaturally high

Any particular songs in mind?

I think plenty of people will pay those prices for ZMF headphones if only to avoid a long wait buying them directly from the manufacturer

Haven't you heard the saying "two heads are better than one"?

Wells Audio Milo is what blew my mind and got me hooked on ZMF cans when I heard the Eikon and Atticus at Can Jam NYC (forget the year but I saw NBA great David Robinson there). I have a Milo now and it's pretty awesome. I have the base $1699 version but upgrades can take it as high as $5000, in...
