For anyone that is interested, I will be listing my DNA Stratus in the Classified section shortly. Pairs wonderfully with ZMF headphones. I just have too many expensive amps at the moment and this one will be the first to go.
Oooo - love the Stratus! It's an amp that has a unique and great sound. Good catch for someone!
@zach915m:
Question: Are the „Caldera suede perf“ from the b-stock page ($49.99) the same as the „caldera suede“ from the standard pad page ($79.99)?
Yes they are the same - just B-stock.
@zach915m When will images of the headphones released for sale on 24th be made available please?
Should be up either tomorrow/21st or the 22nd. I took many of them today and we are processing them and getting them labeled tomorrow and weds. Sorry for the lateness, everything is coming together super well though.
There are some heartbreakers in the new video, ZMF! As in I can tell quite a few of those are going to sell out within seconds of going live. What's the average weight of the stabilized ACs coming out to @zach915m ? Some people get jealous of money but with that vid, I am now jealous of (the fun parts of) your job.
I just weighed a few and it seems the weight will vary between 525 all the way to 625 - the heaviest ones are aluminum, steel/copper/brass and resin. The lightest, Black/Coffee grille rods and mag and stabilized without resin.

Just wanted to apologize to anyone waiting on an email from me. Our team is working hard to get all the headphones made AND respond to emails and all that. This is the busiest week of the year for us and while I think our staff is doing an amazing job, there also may be slightly longer delays in communication from all of us, but I promise we're working very hard!

All I got this year is the Grand Palladium cable. Wasn't even looking for cables but couldn't resist when I saw how great it would look with the Autuer Classic resin stabilized I bought during last year's sale. Looks even better in reality than the mockup I'd made to compare colors. When the sun hits the cable it really sparkles too. Can't really say much as far as sound, as it wasn't my motivation for the purchase and it's not like I'm going to use any other cable but this one. Maybe the stock cable came across a little more harsh? Feels great, reeks of quality, and not microphonic at all. Looks amazing on my desk when not using it.

Gorgeous Auteur Classic!

That cable really does match it!

Agreed. My cell phone picture doesn't do it justice, but it's a high quality piece.

They sound incredible too. The bass is so much deeper than I have ever experienced on a headphone before and I love it.
Indeed- my Eikons are the same way. Having true deeeeeeep bass in a headphone is something else. 😁

Looks PHENOMENAL, Rob. Hearty congratulations, it’s a really cool, unique look as well. 👍👍

You are going to enjoy the Atrium Closed bass then!

I recently bought the B-Stock Resin Auteur headphones directly from ZMF's official website. Previously, I purchased VC, AO, Caldera, Auteur OG, and Aeolus through a Korean dealer. My first purchase of ZMF Resin headphones, and I have high expectations.

I'd like to express my gratitude to Zach and his team for resolving an issue that occurred during the payment process yesterday.

I think everyone here knows you are busy Zach. I can't imagine the work and coordination that goes into an event/release like this, but I'm sure it's quite the task. One small part of my business is professional photography, and I know how much work it is to stage, shoot, edit, tweak, resize, and publish. And that doesn't include machining and spraying, not to mention planning designs and stabilizing. Or the ecommerce aspect. Happy to support you and your company with my purchases. The level of effort and commitment to quality is clearly shown.

Love the videos BTW! It's so cool seeing the insider view. I never thought I'd be so entertained by a spraying video and tour. But it was great! Video editor deserves some props.

Very sorry again and no problem!

Thanks and thanks!

The video/photo part is my hobby on the side, and fortunately the headphone stuff let's me utilize all that silly money I spent on film school and am still paying back!

Film school was great btw, the cost was not ahah.
