Going off of memory The Atticus is a more fun,warm,slamming sound. Huge midbass,which tended to obscure the sub bass.
The VC is more revealing,better separation,detail retrieval,staging both width and depth,fantastic sub bass,and depending upon amp,pads and/or tubes can slam with fantastic authority. The VC is also much faster.
@knivek - if you're a serious bass head, get the Atticus and you'll be very happy! They are a bass cannons - think audiophile level Beats (in a very good way).
If you prefer a much more linear / flat but still with an added bass - VC would be more to your taste.

Well,im getting my skull pummeled by the VC tonight. Granted I have a bass heavy tube combo in place,but im using the most neutral pads on the VC. Any more bass and it would be too much.
I just picked up the 2019 24/96 Abbey Road...damn thing rocked my cranium.

I wouldn’t call myself a basshead. But my AFC’s just sold. Those were not warm enough for me. I want a wider soundstage than those so hoping the Atticus would work... but the VC has such rave reviews.. i hate living in SK
If you want a wide stage the VC is the ZMF closed back you want. Im listening to psytrance tonight,and a few times stuff has come from so far off from the right or left Ive actually looked over my shoulder to see where that sound was coming from,only to realize its in the music. Its at times downright spooky how crazy the staging is.
Tried asking on the atticus/eikon thread but no comments: has anyone tried rolling the verite or universe pads (whether lambskin or suede) on the atticus or eikon? Fellow Verite open owner, but I also have the atticus/eikon and was curious if folks have tried experimenting with the verite pads or universe pads on either of them.
I would like a comparison to lcd-xc, I am looking for good closed headphones and I would like to try something new. It is a pity that there is nowhere to listen to ZMF in Poland.

I just went to the headphone shop here that carried ZMF about a year ago, hoping to try any of the again so that I can have a reference point. No luck. They don't have them anymore. No where in Hong Kong to try ZMF.
nice build on the cable! just starting to do my own myself. first one definitely is not picture worthy haha. at least it didnt short the headphones/amp!
kind of you to say but you didnt hear the language coming out me soldering wires to bridge the earth and live connections on the 4 pin mini xlrs. I'm sure theres a good reason for using these over something simple and very effective like a 3.5mm mono jack!
anyone in the UK seen, heard, received anything VC shaped yet? ... i'm totally fine with this waiting honestly, i'm 46 and completely in control of my patience and emotions

for some reason its got me listening to some more and more intense music and even though my Stellia's are sounding sweet they might as well be old bean cans
Well here are some potatoe quality Phone pics, at work, enjoying the view listening to music and catching up on work email and general work...loving my new Verite Closed, I'm about 50-60hrs of break in at this point, all active listening...just loving this sound... even with incomplete break-in time.... fantastic pieces of art both visually and in sound conveyance!
