    SMSL M500 MKIII is available now!

    So, mine just didn't turn on today when I wanted to use it. No power outages, no damage. I got a whole year and two months out of it. No technical support contact available on their website. None. Just driver and firmware downloads. 500 USD down the drain. I will be avoiding SMSL like the...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Okay so I hope this is useful as presented, as nobody replied to my post yesterday about how best to do so... My Peace/APO Equalizer settings for the Bokeh. Certainly nothing major in terms of changing the tuning as it doesn't need any major changes (as I've said, I like it just fine un-EQ'ed)...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    What's the preferred way to share a Peace/APO EQ profile? I'm new to the whole process through software (not to EQ'ing itself of course). I'd love to know what people think of the results, even knowing that sources and other stuff can affect yada yada yada...

    ZMF Verite Open

    Found myself listening to the new KMFDM album that was released today. The "supporting" words I need to describe just how much I am enjoying it with the Verite Open are not allowed to be published here. :)

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Hah, yeah I know what you mean, I've considered selling the Elegias as well as my 770s. But strangely they have their own strong suits when EQ'ed. Nice sounding closed backs are hard to come by. I've found those two work wonderfully on my gaming rig, which I have my Topping E50/L50 stack...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    I hope the mods will forgive me addressing the Elegias specifically, because I have the Bokeh and Elegia as well. You cannot listen to the Elegia without EQ after getting the Bokehs (tbh I have the Focal Bathys as well, they ruined the Elegias for me before the Bokeh). When I EQ the Elegia, they...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    While these are amazingly good all-rounders, I think the genres I'm enjoying most on these are 80s Rock/Synth/Pop, and Lo-Fi. And I don't feel like it's an insult to say that Lo-Fi sounds good on a set of cans...

    ZMF Verite Open

    If you dig piano, check out Jan Lisiecki. It's what I gravitate to lately with the VO when it comes to classical. Top notch stuff. He's mostly done Mozart and Chopin from what I've seen. More Deutsche Grammophon releases. :)

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Have listened to some music now. And I agree with those that say the bass isn't quite as nuanced and textured as higher end ZMFs, which of course, but at the same time, there's lots of it. Tonal balance is great, period. I don't need to EQ them unless I want more bass for a certain track...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    My Bokeh arrived today. To my surprise I was number 58, I was wondering if I was anywhere near the first hundred. I haven't listened to much music yet but they're fantastic for videos. Very nice soundstage for closed backs. Unfortunately for me the bass is severely reduced when I'm wearing...

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    Mine needed all of 72 hours before they transformed from amazing to spectacular (my best cans before then were Edition XS). They haven't changed any more in the roughly 200 hours since. Perhaps I'm an outlier, or my idea of a lot is different than yours and these still aren't as good as they...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    Cables are usually 4.5ft long unless you paid for more.

    Limba is a soft hardwood... yea ;)

    ZMF Verite Open

    My Verite was delivered today. Absolutely beautiful looking with the aged copper accents and red strap. Sounds absolutely great with both amps (perhaps a touch better with the tubes), but considering I planned out the whole padauk wood motif, I am glad it still sounds wonderful with the...

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    I might've just pulled the trigger on the Bokeh three minutes after receiving the release email... My Elegias are jealous now, they've been relegated to second fiddle closed back.

    ZMF Verite Open

    Good stuff. What's the amp with the Tung Sol 6SN7s?

    ZMF Verite Open

    My padauk selectstock (A-stock) VO is scheduled to arrive tomorrow by the time I'm home from work. My Christmas present to myself along with a padauk Geshelli A3Pro Sparkos and padauk Geshelli J2S (4499EX + Sparkos version) DAC. Amazing audiophile stuff all done in my favourite wood? Yes...
