ZMF November is finally here - we've been working like crazy at the shop as there is a lot going on.

Earlier this week I outlined the first two releases for ZMF November on our YouTube Channel, with the release of the ZMF HD8xx+ Sub pads, which fit the HD800 type models, as well as the new Crescent "Snap" based on our somewhat new Crescent Strap that comes stock on all ZMF headphones.

ALL RELEASES BELOW WILL BE AT 10:30 AM EST / 15:30 PM UST - the deals/discounts will run until the end of December 5th at 11:59 PM EST.

Tomorrow November 11th - on the ZMF November Page of the website, our first headphone release of the month will take place, with the Marblewood Auteur Classic. This marks the first "official" LTD edition for the classic. The Marble wood is finished with hard wax oil, for a buttery finish that has a nice sheen. It's awesome!

The rest will be as follows, which will all pop up here: https://shop.zmfheadphones.com/collections/zmf-november

November 18th: The rest of the Atrium, Atticus, Aeolus, Eikon, Auteur Classic and Verite Open and Closed will be released in both B-Stock AND rarity editions. All the A and B stock models will be available for the corresponding model on the same product page.

November 22nd: ZMF Caldera Release! These will be listed on both the ZMF November page and the regular "Headphones" page. We are working hard to have as many units available as possible. We expect to have around 50-60 units of the Kingwood model available. I've been saving this wood for the last 3 years for this. It's very expensive and hard to find as Kingwood is a very small tree; a true rosewood that is very hard to get. Very very excited! If you want to learn more about Caldera, I will be releasing 2 Videos soon on our YouTube Channel. Please subscribe to get notifications when these are released!

Other Product notes and deals:

Salire Headphone stands:
Working on a large batch of these in Tiger Maple, Oak, Walnut etc. Will throw them on the site asap, whenever we finish them.

Wood Cases: These will be for sale A-La-Carte for $150 in Cherry wood. Addable with each specific headphone, or A-La-Carte.

Decware x ZMF OTL: We have 10 of these done, and are just finishing the case work. As soon as I can I will make a video about them and throw it up on YouTube.

B-Stock Pads: Will be quite a lot of these available.

Verite Bundle Discount: If you bundle a VO and a VC of any type, we will discount the purchase of the two headphones by $500 USD. It has to be one VO and one VC though!

To mix things up from the somewhat boring "white box" photos- I have taken it upon myself to photograph all of the new models with black backdrop. I then do every set of headphones on my listening table with a more "homey" style. Here are some teasers!

Resin Atrium - we are using more and more Burly Oak in the Resin sets. The asymmetry is stunning to me.

I was able to procure a few boards of Black and White Ebony. It's much too rare a wood to do a run of, but we were able to make 4 or 5 Atriums.

_DSC0238.jpg

I've still got a batch of Macassar Ebony left, I will release it in small amounts so I can make it last. Who knows when I'll find it again.

_DSC0244.jpg

A single set of Tasmanian Blackwood that's ribboned is available. This thing glows like a night-lite.

_DSC0257.jpg

I always like having some camphor burl around. This one is flamey.

_DSC0260.jpg

A first ever for us, a few sets of redheart. I'm definitely going to use more of this in the future. It's like African Padauk on steroids. It's brighter than most of the red stabilized wood we carry. Crazy times.

_DSC0266.jpg

This auteur classic is absolutely bonkers.

_DSC0272.jpg

This piece of maple burl was turned blue, and honored.

_DSC0283.jpg

I love it when the color of a piece of wood is indescribable.

_DSC0319.jpg

Lastly - I've found two sets of spalted Koa wood. I've NEVER seen this before.

_DSC0337.jpg

Caldera Kingwood reminds me of Purple Heart mixed with Cocobolo. Maybe the most luxurious feeling and looking headphone I've built.

_DSC0053.jpg


I'm still taking pics of Verite Closed/Open and we're still finishing our Aeolus batch. I'll update pictures here and on the website as we head into the releases!

To give a full perspective of many headphones, I am shooting a 360 spin cycle of most if not all the A stock models, they will be displayed in video on the product pages like they are on the Caldera Page, click on the image with the "play" button: https://shop.zmfheadphones.com/collections/zmf-november/products/caldera-kingwood-ltd

Here's some GIF examples in lower resolution:

Also - we are now a dealer for Cayin tube amps, which I've found to pair equally well with their transformer based design. You can add any of the Cayin tube amps at a discount with your purchase, or get the same discount up to three months after you purchase a headphone directly from us. You can check out my Cayin amp video's here:

I'm getting flush... especially for that redheart set.

The Spalted Koa Atrium & the Blue Maple Burl Auteur Classic are my favorites out of this batch. They’re all unbelievable though. The ZMF team never fails to impress.

2022, the race for the redheart!

Although I love those black and whites too…

Something about that coffee gold oak is just stunning, both the wood and the grille.

It has some nice specification. Great thread and thanks for the heads-up. Cheers!

Macassar Ebony is killer looking, just beautiful.

Feel free to send a private message…. But how much discounts is one looking at when bundling a headphone and amplifier?
