Seriously great headphone, not just for the price. I've had a demo now for almost 2 weeks and I'm constantly reaching for it. Technically capable with a fun side. Best $1000 headphone I've heard by far.
Agreed! Have had my demo unit since Monday and have been listening to it all week. Overall pleasant timbre, great sense of space and bass punch are my favorite attributes thus far. I think anyone buying this would be super stoked on it! Also agree with you - not just for the price!

Great video that says a lot.

All set with this finally:

I have to say that you did a very good job with the mesh.
If the bokeh comes in different woods, this could be a game changer for some users in addition to all the pad options it have.
I can imagine that most people will like that.
Like the other Zmf headphones, everything is well thought out from start to finish.
Great work from you and the whole team.👍👍👍👍👍

For a moment I thought those were yours in the background at 1:28 :D

Just wanted to give another shoutout to ZMF's amazing customer service.

Had a cable come in with a loose Mini XLR connector. Sent the team a video of it rattling and they sent me a new cable right away.

True, but I think VC is [perhaps unexpectedly] generally less warm than VO, so our takes are not mutually exclusive.
Fvc < Fvo ? …. 🤔😳 …. not to me …. (using Norne Audio Vygarde, their ‘temperatures’ are alike, although other aspects of presentation differ 🤷🏻‍♂️)

You ever wonder how we would describe the differences between headphones if even more audiophiles had synesthesia?
Instead of just a scale of warm to bright you could have umami, bitter, sour, sweet, and salty. It’s too difficult to describe sound characteristics on a linear scale. At least with 5 dimensions you’d have a chance.
