Both those look amazing! Olive wood has such a pretty grain to it, I love it. And those Caldera!!!! Wow, IMO the best looking Caldera yet. It's wood porn, and I'm an addict.
Stock Coffee Gold White Oak. This particular set is super nice with a great wood grain on both that matches perfectly. Super happy with them. Normally I’m not a big fan of the stock ZMF’s but the White Oak look phenomenal and sound even better.
Sorry for my English . I'm new to audio and didn't have ZMF. I want to buy AC (November promotion)
What is the difference between the B-STOCK, OVERRUN, RARITIY versions?
B-stock is discounted for some slight imperfections; what those imperfections might be are not disclosed. Overruns and rarities are A-stock - “sold as new”, if you will. Rarities, being rare, are often more expensive than stock.
New cable turned up the other day for my new AC Ash LTD. It's a custom build from Cosmic Cables in the UK.
Silver plated OCC with black Eidolic 4 pin xlr and Furutech 4 pin mini XLR. Very happy with the build quality, feel and sound so far (very soft and handles great). I tried the Lavricables Grand with the AC, sounds great on the Elites but I preferred a copper based cable with the AC.

Curious if you’ve had a chance to switch to the Caldera Suedes yet?
I’ve been listening to Caldera for most of this week but I’m back on the AC this morning and I forgot how good they are. Not sure which I prefer to be honest. AC with Caldera Suedes is end game for me in a closed back for sure. They’re just so addicting and punchy.
I was going to place one last order with ZMF before Christmas and wondered if you’ve tried any other pads?
Sub bass is better on AC. Mids and presentation of vocals and classical better on AO. To my ears the AC is much warmer in the mids and upper mids (but I call this fuzzy) Depends on the music.
