ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

Camphor burl stained purple. I wanted purple after I saw Darthpool's & Torq's purple Verite Closed, then learned Metal571 had purple Atticus, so didn't want them to be the exact same as those. 469grams with Magnesium chassis was the very light Atticus I was hoping for. It's actually a gram under my Aeolus and only 14 more than my Verite Open. Got a purple cord too. The Atticus is my first ZMF love and I've bought 6 other used or new ZMFs in the past 8 months since my first Atticus. Even without burn in it sounds great!

The other day I was looking at pics of ZMF headphones online, and I came across my actual pair of Atticus, and thought it was worth posting in this thread. I bought this pair second hand from an awesome forum member, and believe he bought this one from the first ever limited edition Cocobolo run.

I never get tired of looking at ZMF headphones and I wanted to share this pic. I can't take credit for it, however I do own this exact pair, and could not be happier. Happy Listening fellow Atticus owners! :o2smile:

Those look amazing, especially the grain! Cocobolo is my favorite wood, I regret not spending more at the time to get my Atticus in cocobolo.

I had a feeling they were, and thanks for confirming. I am loving them man! I have spent just as much time looking and admiring them, as I have listening with them.

Any thoughts on what wood type this is? I was told they were Manchurian Ash, but the ash pics I've seen look nothing like mine, and mine look very much like other pics in the thread that were Zebrawood. Was Zebrawood a LTD option at one point? My used pair didn't come with the owner card with the wood info. However, my Auteur Zebrawood looked nothing like this or the other Atticus Zebrawoods I've seen on the thread. Basically want to know because these are being sold soon as I got another custom Atticus pair.

I hear you, they are a beautiful headphone, very stunning and the sound is so sweet.
I had a tough time selling them and I am glad they went to someone who is enjoying them so much. :)

I have a question for you, as I've found no satisfactory answer. What are BE-2 pads? I just saw them mentioned on ZMF page, tried to google the crap out of it, but there were no precise information as what are they exactly? On the ZMF page, they are listed under Verite pads, but from the description they are shown as something between Verite and Universe pads. Hope you can explain it to a newbie :D

Is there a cable that makes atticus a bit brighter espsecially in the treble region, maybe silver?

I am using suede pads, don't want leather ones.

So, the postman was here today... and lo and behold, he brought two little things with him! One from the other side of the world (Australia) and one from our neighboring country (Germany), but of course originally from the USA.

What can I say? Feels like Christmas and just a little bit excited! :blush:

But see for yourself!:relaxed:

Give me a few more days for first listening impressions!
