Oh nice, light Redwood Burl Bokeh please! this would be a must-buy for me
Saving my pennies for CC, but yeah - the right burl wood might push me to buy the Bokeh in addition... :xf_rolleyes:

I'm going out on a limb here and guessing both would be great to have. My Caldera is like detail king, but the Bokeh is doing some really nice romanticizing of things. I think it honestly is going to become one of my favorite headphones. I haven't been ready to play with the mesh even.

I am/was saving for the CC, but that's going to have to wait a bit longer, as the Bokeh is my next headphone purchase. The Bokeh is too much fun, and is very capable as well.

Awesome video Zach!

I just knew the Bokeh had to have the ADS in it with that crazy cool staging and openness I am hearing, and now it's confirmed. :grin:

I'm excited to hear how it compares to the AC!

I'm a bit conflicted – the Bokeh looks pretty neat on paper and in the vid (that tuning!), but I already have the VC and AC (soon, when it ships). I'm a perennial WFH hermit (I leave home 2-3x/mo at best) with a disabled wife (zero travel), so I wouldn't benefit from "portability" one bit. Regardless, at this price, there's no way I would turn down owning another cool ZMF product – but I'd like to have realistic expectations here. So convince me: those that have heard them, are there any other practical benefits to the Bokeh over the VC/AC?

Yeah, I've been pondering the idea of maybe getting an AC sometime in 2024, once something other than Cherry wood is available ( I *think* from an aesthetics POV, I'd prefer something like a wide-grain Ash), but I digress... The Bokeh is making me consider taking my first plunge into ZMF waters earlier than planned.

Benefits: different flavors and yet another amazing ZMF product in your collection.
Idk, I've not heard the Bokeh so can't really chime in, but those two points still stand regardless. : D

This is the reason I picked up a rare Eikon despite already owning the VC & AC. Not for "better." Just to appreciate "different." I suspect this will be the case with the Bokeh for existing owners.
As a random aside, I must say, the Eikon is like the perfect WFH companion. Great isolation and a tuning that doesn't force you to stop what you're doing and pay attention to itself.
