    THE WATERCOOLER HEADPHONE EDITION – Headphones, Amps, DACs, and desktop/home audio related – a freewheeling discussion of gear, impressions, music, and musings.

    When I had my pair I speaker tapped a 115 wpc vintage receiver. I've still yet to hear another headphone slam with that much malicious intent.

    Swapped out the stock hybrid pads today for the thin protein pads, and I'm rather enjoying them. They def have a faster and snappier presentation.

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    Yeah, I mean if its within your financial and logistical means, I'd keep all three in your chain for awhile before deciding which amp(s) to keep and which to move on from.

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    With all of the talk lately of the Aegis I should prolly re-post my Aegis review I did way back when. Granted this is a review of the DIY version, but apparently the ZMF version sounds essentially the same, with some nice quality of life features thrown in. If you just want my down and dirty...

    Yeah, ZMF usually brings a ton of headphones and amps to check out. Get there early, the ZMF room is quite the popular destination. Laker freak, huh? Who's your favorite Laker now and of all time?
