Sure! Novomusica has been selling HiFi gear since the 70's. Always worth checking their outlet section.

Hey Zach, it does seem like the pages are behaving oddly, tried on a couple browsers. If you select one, it shows, but then the drop down list is blank and the only way to refresh to choose another is by reloading the page. I don't know if that's just the behavior before it goes live, but I feel like in past listings you could look at them all from the dropdown list without reloading.

#2 and #3 are insanely beautiful!! Really something special here...

Love the Vibrato and Operatic Eikons. Also the Vapor Atticus! But luckily I'm not regretting going with the Tourmaline Atticus from the first stabilized release

In the meantime, I am truly enjoying my ZMF Eikon (Camphor) …

Just popping in to say I have officially joined the ZMF family! Spent a lot of time in the ZMF room at Canjam Dallas, everyone was so nice and everything sounded so good so I knew I needed one. Settled on the Atticus as a nice complement to my Meze's, really love the lush, romantic and punchy sound of these, feels like I'm in another world. They definitely stand out cause I purposely go for a black/gray aesthetic with my gear lol.

I could use some amp suggestions to pair with my Atticus. It would also get some use with a couple Senn cans (650 and 660S) and a Focal Elear. I'll probably jump up to another ZMF can down the road too.

For context, I've got a Bifrost2/Jotunheim 2 right now which does a good job with almost everything I've got, just wanting to get a tube amp to go with some of those dynamics. I'm using a little Vali2+ as a preamp to the Jot2 sometimes, but it's not really scratching the itch. Hopefully an OTL will. I previously had a Little Dot MKii and wasn't ever too impressed with it, before it went faulty.

Some things I have considered given my budget of $300-$500 or so.
- Valhalla 2
- Xduoo TA-26
- Used Feliks Echo

Thoughts and suggestions appreciated!

Hey there, tracking back to this post - what did you go with in the end? I'm between the TA-26s and Valhalla 2 for my first OTL and would love to hear what your choice and experience was... thanks!

Has anyone tried any of the Bokeh pads on their Atticus? I'd be curious to read any comparisons to the Ori lambskin / Ori suede pads.

I'm also still curious to read more comparisons between the Ori pads and the Auteur suedes. I do prefer the Ori lambskin over the suedes though, so I guess that would mean I probably wouldn't like the presentation of the Auteur suedes on the Atticus as much?

I was wondering if sometime we will be able to send our current eikon in and have our drivers updated to the eikon classics. I would be interested if that would be a possibility

.... and can anyone comment on an Eikon 'original' vs Eikon 'classic' comparison, done with same earpad type?

 

[Pharmaboy]

Wait--there's now an Eikon Classic? With ADS installed.

I didn't know that.

Zach released some as part of ZMF November but he said it's an Eikon with Auteur Classic driver but no ADS

He released less than 15 units as part of that initial drop and then an extra 8 along with the Atticus Stabilized. With such a limited amount of units I'd be very surprised if someone actually owns both the original as well as the "Eikon Classic" to do a comparison. I think @OnlySoMany owns both but he goes through so many units it's hard to keep track.

@Pharmaboy
Zach stated that he didn't have plans to make the Eikon Classic a permanent item on his roster but LTD's would pop up from time to time. The upcoming Mangowood Auteur Classic LTD's along with the Queensland Maple AC's might be a time that we'll see a few Eikon's pop up but nothing has been mentioned yet.
