I've been debating these, but finally pulled the trigger. It seems as if I'll love the sound signature, but comfort was the deciding factor. I need a pair of cans that I can get lost in for hours. I'm super stoked.

My Auteurs finally came in this week and I have been completely smitten. They are exactly what I was looking for and make a great all-arounder. I have been pleased with just about everything that I've listened to through them. I was a bit worried about how they would handle metal, but they...

Three days ago, I received an email that my Auteurs were moving on to the assembly phase, which would take 1-2 weeks, followed by some time in QC. I just received another email that they're already on their way! This is a fantastic little surprise. I can't wait for them to get here. When I...

I just placed my order! This wait is going to be downright excruciating. Having never heard any ZMF headphones, I'm a tad nervous. That being said, I've consumed every post on this thread and I'm fairly confident that this is the right pair of headphones for me. Arghh, I'm so excited!

I'm considering ordering them from Apos Audio because of the extended warranty they offer. It would definitely give me some peace of mind, should I go that route.

I finally got myself a pair. I saved money and got them as an open box item from Music Direct. The sound is exactly what I was looking for. I was ecstatic....until the left driver died about fifteen minutes in. I'm beyond frustrated. Once I return them, I'll need to decide if I want to get...

Fantastic! Thanks for the confirmation everyone. I read in the Soundnews review that he liked them with metal, but I wanted to see if others agreed as well. I’ve been researching for a while now...weighing the pros and cons of different headphones. Within my price range, it seemed like I’d...

Hey everyone! First-time poster here. Can anyone speak to how the Quad sounds with metal music? I've been researching an upgrade from my HD 6XX and have lately been focused on the Quad. The descriptions make it sound like it's right up my alley. I listen to an extremely wide variety of...
