ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)
Mar 21, 2024 at 3:09 PM Post #1,996 of 2,462
Great! Btw is it possible to order just the headband or the metal part of the headband of the Bokeh as a replacement? I kinda screwed up bending mine and it now has some "edges" in it. It still works, it just bothers me a bit, because it doesn't look so good.
We don't sell it as a replacement right now due to it being a bit tougher to install from an "at home" type of fix. Although the headphone is still modular it's just not quite as easy. Send us a picture of the headband at support@zmfheadphones.com and we can provide support in a couple different ways.
I just wanted to note that I think this image on the new Bokeh run is a really excellent way to point out some of variations that could be expected on the different woods. Would love to see this type of thing going forward on other models - I'm sure it's not always feasible as it requires multiple, different sets to be built, but it's super helpful in giving a better idea what to expect.
Thanks! I think it'll help with expectations. We have never had a really high capacity to making guides to wood seen in headphone format has been tough, maybe if we grow more it's something we can plan in to releases.

Tomorrow the Black Limba batch is being released at 8:30 Am CST // 1:30PM UTC.

https://shop.zmfheadphones.com/collections/stock-headphones/products/bokeh

A couple quick notes!

1. This batch is still Limba wood, but more specifically "Black" Limba which has many natural characteristics. best to watch my YouTube Video below, but expect aberrations, all of which I find very beautiful!

2. PRO OFC 4N cable is available as an add on.
3. BOKEH Case is available as an add-on, it'll be available a-la-carte within a month.

This batch will be 200 units - and it will start shipping in 4 weeks or less. Estimate to complete the entire batch is 12 weeks.



Some pics!

Love the case - will this also be available through the local dealers (in Germany in this "case" :wink: )

I checked the site today and didn't see any cases for sale (separately). Did I miss those?

These look great indeed - and agree that it's a good way how different one set of one run can look to the other. And then there's the different stains (as in the ruby stain on the original first run)...

@zach915m are you generally sharing edition sizes of "regular" runs (as in the above "200 units" for the Black Limba)?
What was the size of the original Claret/Ruby Stain run?
And I take it, this is a +/- number where you're having the # on the owners card, but this could also be showing a #203?

Yeah the dealers will have access to the case! It won't be available a-la-carte for about a month though.

The Ruby run was 250 units. We're sticking with 200 right now to make sure delivery time doesn't extend past the 12 weeks.

I don't think we've discussed how the owners cards will be serialized yet, I talk with the team and come back!

BTW list price on the case is $69.99 - it'll be available as an "add on" for $50 with or without the tuning kit. The $50 price will also be available to Rubied Limba/1st run owners when it's on the site a-la-carte.

Is that for "original" owners or current owners? And only through your website or also the local dealers? Asking for a friend :wink:

Thanks for getting back so quickly and for the detailed info!

That's a pretty cool and beautiful case. And the wood with those grains is amazing too.

Oh - we are changing the stock pad for this run to the Hybrid Pad. Take note!
