Looking forward to some impressions by those who heard it at CanJam. I’m looking to blind buy this.

I heard it at CanJam - standard caveats apply - I'm trying to recall all of the amps I tried it with, at least Feliks Envy, Holo Bliss, Aegis, and DCS Lina. Tried both pads they were deployed with. My takeway was it sounds like a Caldera with some bass lift. I think this extra touch of bass helps those who find the mids a bit forward, as they likely play it at a slightly lower volume. Staging was good, noise blocking was okay, I didn't ask others about leakage but it wasn't my focus. It wasn't eliminated from further consideration, which is my personal show baseline of evaluation. I'm not sure I have a use case, as I have a Caldera.

Thanks! Sounds perfect for me if it has the Caldera sound with a touch more bass!

I for one have learned the difference between a caldera and a volcano thanks to this thread...

That said, bring the stabilized lava version of this headphone

Stabilised “MAGMA” for @Monsterzero.

Here's another tidbit that some may not know....

Magma and lava are essentially the same thing. When magma breaks through the soil and is visible, it magically turns into lava.

Just as a meteor magically turns into a meteorite when it hits the ground. Geology and language are amazing.
To stay on topic, the same magic applies to the ZMF flagship headphones: as you put them on your head, they sail you away on sound waves to a musical dimension.

I for one can’t wait to see the magmar stabilized drop.

The downside is that you’ll need an app-based game to find them.

I think this man's eyes have been burned away reading this thread.

I think the CC cups would look great in a redwood burl, which is very magma-like.

Nice Magma. I think we need to stop saying …Magma…..@Monsterzero might erupt

Magma is lava underground and under pressure. Lava is magma above ground, flying free & going nuts.

I always though there should be a muscle car model, "The Magmatic." I would buy that car.

(reviews we can only dream of) "The Caldera Closed has a magmatic effect on this listener"

Hmmmm......a Hemi Orange wood stain.

It would be cool to have a set of cans that would match the color of my Challenger.
