I think we will see the first ones around mid-summer, like last year, one part towards the end of July/beginning of August, the other part in September.Would love to read comparison with Caldera and Verite Open. Currently considering getting a stabilized AC
But you have to be really lucky to get the one you like as soon as they are online.
As a European you have to take a day off or get up earlier .
There are ways Currently I am not entirely sure I need one considering how Caldera replaced my VO and Elite haha, it’s just I always wanted a closed ZMF and AC is getting some stellar feedback. Just not sure its will compliment Caldera that well, since I really got used to this ZMF planar sound now.I think we will see the first ones around mid-summer, like last year, one part towards the end of July/beginning of August, the other part in September.

IMO the Caldera and Atrium closed are on the opposite ends of the ZMF sound. You can't ask for more difference in between any two Zmfs, so to me they are the most complimentary headphones possible while remaining within the ZMF familyThere are ways Currently I am not entirely sure I need one considering how Caldera replaced my VO and Elite haha, it’s just I always wanted a closed ZMF and AC is getting some stellar feedback.

Echoing ‘monsterzero’, these two headphones are very complementary. The Caldera are fast, highly resolving, very well balanced, techncial but with a touch of warmth and weight that make it super enjoyable and tactile (as all ZMF cans tend to be). The AC have a slower decay, analog presentation, and some fun coloration that includes a thick bass and forward upper mids, and are a blast for a euphonic listen. Couple that with the former being open back and the latter being closed back, and they are as good as any pair of headphones can be to sit side by side.
