These albums sounds great on any high-end headphone, but I've been really enjoying them on the Vérité Closed. The way this headphone does imaging and decay is so cool and unique. Thought others might enjoy....

B-stock Koa VCs further reduced to $1999

Really want to pull the trigger, but I am running out of this year's budget, otherwise, my wife will kill me for another buy within a month. Will wait till next year for my VC.

 

[Deceneu808]

Obviously things didn't go as planned. Missing my VC. @zach915m I hope a special LTD comes as soon as 3rd January

Just realized it has been little over 3 years years since I’m rocking VC Ironwood. Only thing I would change is the weight of Ironwood.

Have you tried the crescent headband? It makes a pretty big difference with the heavier woods. Once you get the fit right it's like wearing nothin' at all...

thats good to know....I will try it.
Is it easy to install?

Just saw its like locking it in with few buttons. Thanks for suggestion....it's on its way to me

So we have Crescent Strap and then we have Crescent Snap.
Is Crescent snap = Crescent Pads with buttons so we dont have to work with any tools?

I guess I was referring to the crescent strap - I thought it could be bought as a complete headband, but I guess you just buy the strap and install it yourself.

I didn't even know about this crescent snap, could be interesting. I'd love to have crescent comfort on all my headphones.

I highly recommend the Co-Pilot Pads; they are so comfortable that I have added them on all three ZMFs I am fortunate enough to own. They are quite reasonable (especially if you snag B-stock during a sale!) for how much comfort they add.

 

[jgwtriode]

Speaking of pads...the crescents are the bomb; they significantly reduce pressure spots and so make the VC's feel much lighter and more comfortable!

Happy listening,

Anybody has an experience with ZMF VC + Yggdrasil and Ragnarok 1? I own HD800S and T1.1, looking for possible upgrade, i would like to know if it is a good combination.

Those who have owned the headphones for long term, any issues with the build quality? Read some mixed comments about it.

Our headphones are modular and any issues people have are almost 100% of the time due to bolts that need to be checked every once in a while or a rod that needs thread locker. Much of the regular maintenance you can expect to do on our headphones is shown in these video's:

Aside from that you've probably read that the magnesium chassis can chip, this was predominantly on early magnesium sets made in 2018 or 2019, which didn't have a radius to the edges of the metal that made them more fragile to bumps and knocks. That has been remedied and while magnesium is still more prone to chipping than aluminum, it is not a regular issue.

All of the regular parts can typically be user replaced except for the magnesium chassis, and the driver is warranted to the original owner for life aside from abuse.

I'm sure others will chime in with personal experience as well.
