ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF
I'm on an electronic music kick right now so plenty of bass to go around. Listened to a few tracks tonight that I really loved: Trip Like I Do and High Roller, both by The Crystal Method. After a few weeks now I can honestly say that I have no interest in going back to my 660s. I'll probably...- sulcusgcs

ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF
Sound check was super easy, and I happened to have it wired correctly. As for the sound,I feel like I'm really hearing some of my music for the first time. Just incredible.- sulcusgcs

ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF
I can post pictures later but I received two cables, one described as the "Stock" cable that does have the red rubber ring on the right connector, and an all-black OFC cable (that matches the picture on the ZMF website). It is certainly possible that I missed the R/L markings last night but as...- sulcusgcs

ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF
So I received my cherry Eikon yesterday and got about 20 minutes with it. All I can say is wow. The biggest difference I noticed from the 660s is a much wider soundstage and deeper, more layered sound. Obviously very quick and initial impressions. However, I do have a question for you all...- sulcusgcs

Do Etymotic IEMs still offer the very best passive noise isolation possible?
I don't know if they are the king or not but my ER4XRs have unbelievable isolation. As far as comfort goes, I have no problems but it must be ear-shape related.- sulcusgcs

Just bought a used Cherry Eikon. It will be my first closed back, first ZMF, and first higher-end headphone. Coming from HD660s. Really excited to hear the differences!- sulcusgcs

ZMF vs. DCA closed backs
Thanks, I really appreciate the input. FWIW, I'm coming from HD6xx and HD660s so I'm assuming this will be quite a different experience.- sulcusgcs

ZMF vs. DCA closed backs
Fair enough. I have a JDS Atom at the moment, so nothing fancy but should be plenty of power. For music, I'm really all over the place. I'm currently on an electronic music kick, but I love jazz, classical, soundtracks, rock, and pop. I don't listen to hip-hop.- sulcusgcs

ZMF vs. DCA closed backs
Thanks for the reply. I'm definitely zeroing in on the Eikons. I currently have the opportunity to purchase the Eikon Cherry used for just under $900. Is that a no-brainer?- sulcusgcs

ZMF vs. DCA closed backs
Can anyone comment on differences between ZMF's closed back offerings (Atticus and Eikon) versus the DCA Aeon Flow Closed 2 (which I realize is brand new). I'm looking to get closed back cans, which I have never owned, and am looking at these specifically. Thanks!- sulcusgcs

Hey @mrspeakers just wondering if you have any dealers in the Los Angeles area where we could try out the AFO2 when they come out. Thanks, Dan, and congrats on your success!- sulcusgcs
