    ZMF Spring Limiteds, CanJam NYC and Estimated Release Schedule for Caldera Closed and BOKEH Open!

    Thanks and I’m sure there are more great ones coming so hopefully you get one you really like. I think this time I was lucky in when I refreshed the store page there were salire posted but only about half of them so it must have been right as things were going live.

    ZMF Spring Limiteds, CanJam NYC and Estimated Release Schedule for Caldera Closed and BOKEH Open!

    I ended up getting this one, I liked the variety in the grain and I think will complement most of my ZMF headphones so I think this will just be the stand next to the listening station for whichever headphone is plugged in. I also really dug the vibrant green ones those looked so cool and I...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I do remember I had to change a setting in Roon for it to sound good over wireless and I think it was to have the end point render and decode (maybe it was the opposite but I think this was it) but I'd agree that if you can get wired or a bridge like this to sound as good or better than wireless...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I also think streamers make a huge difference but a great way to get really good sound reasonably is the Pi2AES and I do the battery power and power the PC and audio board using different batteries and then I used optical to keep things isolated. I did notice a significant improvement powering...

    Summit-Fi Random Thoughts

    I just wanted to say that meditation really helps with this over thinking. It's almost like our brain just builds up a backlog of broken thoughts throughout the day (or even weeks and months) and they build up and build up and when you meditate it's kind of like clearing all of that crap out...

    ZMF Caldera Closed

    I'm curious what are people's impression of the bass? I think there are two areas of frequency I'm most interested in is if the low end is similar to the AC vs AO and tuned with more low end or if it is still pretty even frequency response like the CO. The second is I think even high end without...

    That's a really good description of how it felt and during the time it felt like the Hugo 2 was great and it did get me through the year well but man hooking up the GOTL was something else entirely and I instantly felt how much I've missed it. The only headphones I have that I prefer off SS is...

    It's been about a year since I could listen to my Glenn because I was doing some restorations and moving and I was able to listen to it this week and it really blew me away how great the sound was. I had my entire desktop setup packed up and was mainly surviving off of the Hugo 2 and over the...

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    I'll just second that the MZ3 is amazing with the Dianna V2 and there was a used one on here that may still be posted and that is great value. I think all Abyss sounds good off of clean tube amps because the drivers are so fast the tubes add a nice touch of decay to round out notes and that MZ3...

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    Thanks I appreciate it! Thanks the edges where the cup changes shape weren't pictured too much when I purchased them but they are my favorite parts and you are right the edges look almost organic. Thanks NIN sound great on ZMF in general they go together well and Caldera's are I think still...

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    My AC came in today (Altin), these resonated with me because they reminded me of mountains and when they came I love how the light reflects as you change the angle. Also really like the bottom but they are the toughest to photograph I did my best while I was able to keep them off my head...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I think what I would do is just wait for the HP and listen to it out of single ended and then get a cheap adapter (meaning not expensive materials but you should make sure it is wired correctly for TT2) to listen to dual XLR out of the back so you can compare before spending a lot of money. If...

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    This grain is beautiful and then the color is perfect it looks like waves, the grill and fabric as well just all of it fits so well together. Great set!

    ZMF Verite Open

    Something definitely sounds wrong to me people are going to vibe with headphones differently and I think that is totally fine our ears are all shaped differently and there are highly regarded headphones that I am not a big fan of but some of the things that are being said just sound so far off...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    There is some really great wisdom in this post. If you need proof of this go read the Yggy thread when they were reviewed, Abyss when they were reviewed or the chord thread when they were reviewed which I think was just earlier this year.

    ZMF Verite Open

    Didn't realize that they had Verite pads for the B stock so I picked up a pair as a backup just in case these do go away as they are my favorites. I also picked up a set of the ultra perf Verite pads so I'm excited to try those out I never saw those before but I am a big fan of the Verite pads...

    ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!

    I learned everything I needed to learn about Amir when someone sent him a Yggy to review and to simulate leaving it on for a week so the components inside could come to thermal equilibrium he instead used a heat gun on the case of the Yggy while it was operating to heat it up. I'm not really...

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    These would be a cool set. Looks like it came from the same meteorite. I really dig Rigoletto too I've been surprised it's still there.

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    Thanks! I was looking through the pictures and I kept coming back to them they just seemed to connect for me. Some really great ones and I had a list of the ones I liked in case but I was really happy to get these.

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    My wallet cries along I picked up Altin, it's my first stabilized set but I liked that it looked like a mountain range with sunset hitting it. Also reading wheel of time and just read the veins of gold part and the part of the right cup kind of reminds me of it. Lot of good sets though and some...

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    Sad to see the v2 go I really love mine so I took them out to listen to them in honor of it and I still love the sound of them. I heard the 1266 TC, Diana TC and Diana Phi and I really enjoyed them for different reasons but I just gravitated to the v2 because of the tuning I thought they had...
