    ZMF Atrium - new open-back co-flagship

    this thread looks great and i've already seen some interesting hybrid tube AMPs (with easy tube rolling) for about 500€ that caught my attention. I think they would also pair well with the DAC of my K9 AKM. They clearly couldn't compete with those higher priced AMPs but they might be a good...

    ZMF Atrium - new open-back co-flagship

    I'm still so torn apart about ordering Atrium or Caldera (both open). Tried them out at HighEnd last week (Caldera on dcs Lina and Feliks Elise, Atrium on Feliks Elise and Envy) and Caldera on Lina was my #1 in that comparison, Atrium on Tubes tho were better than Caldera on Tubes. Being...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    Roger that, might really be the case that Zach wanted to bring the new Caldera pad tech onto the rest of the line with the Ultra Perforated's. Then it will be Lamb Stock + Thick and maybe Suede as a 3rd option :) What makes me a bit curious is, that if i pick Suede as the 3rd option it shows...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    wow, the thick pads seem to be favored by many people. Guess i'll take these as secondary pads then, thanks for the poll :) Anyone here with experiences of the Ultra Perforated Pads? Also, would my Fiio K9 AKM be enough to drive the Caldera's at first? I have very limited space on my desk and...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    Wish I'd have the money to get both the Caldera and Atrium or upgraded DAC/AMP xD Already sold nearly my whole TCG Collection except some beautys for display to have some money on hand if i buy the Caldera's.

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    Oh yes they really are more beautiful in natural/neutral lightning, thank you for the fast response :) What i like looking at on the canary's is that shiny holographic effect of the wood with its finish. 0 grain's of salt there and congrats on your job working for ZMF :D Every ZMF Headphone...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    Zebrawood LTD is so beautiful, but kinda looks brighter and more yellowish than i've seen on the YouTube Video from ZMF themselves, guess it's due to your lighting in your room. Also finally been able to listen to the Caldera at HighEnd Munich last Saturday and my dear, i gave them a listen to...

    Reply to review by 'sameh931' on item 'FiiO K9 AKM'

    Ordered the K9 PRO ESS for 799€ at first a few days ago, cause the AKM wasn't available anymore for a reasonable price here on german shops (even the K9 AKM on first look). Yesterday evening i then found the K9 AKM available for ~500€ and instantly ordered this aswell. Guess i'll cancel the K9...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I ordered them a day before your answer but i didn't want to cancel the order right away due to a very good price compared to other shops. Tried them today after also installing a new headband (ZMF Crescent Strap, fits really perfect) and i have to say that they really sound nice, Bass has less...

    Help me choose my first tube amp and DAC?

    One more thing i noticed and have to ask (sorry i'm not that much into the electrical part of audio) is that the Xduoo ta-22 provides 3000mW of output Power on it's balanced output. My TH900’s tho are specified with a max input of 1800mW. Could using that 3W output in general somewhow fry my...

    Thank you very much :) it shouldnt bother me then, cuz i don't plan to use IEMs in the future. Also very good that be balanced output has even lower noise floor.
