@zach915m Probably a long shot, but is there any chance there might be a discount on the Auteur Classic upgrade during the ZMF November sale? I’m toying with the idea of selling my beloved Manchurian Ash Auteur, but I feel like I owe it to them to at least get the upgrade done first before I decide.

I wish we could discount everything but the way the upgrade is priced we end up barely breaking even on it as is. A lot of times the upgrade headphones get completely taken apart and put back together to make sure everything feels perfect, and they go completely through QC the same way a new headphone does as the entire driver enclosure is brand new. I know everything we sell is still expensive, and I'm sorry we can't offer more. At the end of the day I have to balance owner satisfaction, employee satisfaction, and long term viability of ZMF with every decision.

Thanks everyone for being here it really means a lot to ZMF and our team!

Is it possible to know the cost of each before the sale goes live? It forms an element of my decision making process that I'd rather not have to deal with under the stress of trying to 'get in first'. Thanks

I'm with you on this... There's so many insane looking choices, the prices would help zone me into which to aim for on Friday. A lot of B stock look great, so I'm sort of leaning towards some of them... But I'd like to know the price difference to the A Stock.

Price wise you can expect estimates as below:

B Stock Headphones:

Atrium: $1999-2499
Aeolus $899 - 1199
Atticus $899-1099
Eikon $999-1299
Verite Open/Closed $1899 - 2499

Rarity, LTD and Stabilized:

Atrium: $2699-3199
Aeolus $1299-1599
Atticus $999 - 1199
Eikon $1199-1299
Verite Open/Closed $2499 - 2999

The prices above reflect estimated base level prices without add ons etc. I have not finished pricing out every model yet as I am still working on pricing. So there may be models higher or lower than these prices as I examine them etc. But this should give a general idea!

NOTE: VERITE2TIMES = $500 off of Verite Open AND Closed when bought together, as a tandem. $250 off each.

This is very helpful! Thanks Zach! Now to make a priority list for VCs

 

[MrNailhead]

Ooh, those rarity Eikons are bitchin'!

They sure are

What a great inventory of headphones for the November sale. Pretty impressive

 

[kion]

Some units are listed as "over-run", what does that mean exactly? Are they leftovers from previous LTD runs (so A stock)?

Yep A-Stock but older batches that we had extra wood for.
