    Comment by 'klardotsh' on listing 'ZMF Verite Open (Ziricote LTD) with display box'

    I hadn't even noticed that was there, neat find. Anyway, it appears to be smudges from some light patinaing of the brass (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patina) - the camera picks it up far more than my eyes in person do, and it's a bit of a blueish green. The greenish coloring in the top right...

    ZMF Caldera Closed

    I didn't realize (1) this product existed, or (2) that it was vaguely within the realm of affordable (it's currently $300 US it appears, but compared to the cans discussed in this thread...). Thanks for sharing - I might look into this depending on ability to use it with a Linux machine.

    ZMF Caldera Closed

    Dear god. I don't know how y'all do stuff like this. With a very imperfect measurement from a phone SPL meter, I tend to listen somewhere in the low-mid 70s. Maybe towards the mid-upper 70s if I'm *really* jamming, but I can only do that for so long, and only with open backs (my Atrium Closed...

    So **you're** the one who snagged these out from under me last winter when I was eyeing them and woke up the next day to see them gone :P GLWS. AC is awesome - I ended up with Purple Burst Shou Sugi Ban. Love these cans, whoever snags these is in for a treat.

    You might be within return policy timeframe still, it's potentially worth a look if you "just received" these! https://headphones.com/policies/refund-policy Either way, good luck with return or sale!

    I bought these alongside the Eikons I also have for sale over the winter. Alas, similar to the Eikon, these just aren't getting much head time compared to my Caldera Open and Atrium Open+Closed. Maybe eventually VO or VC will be a re-buy for flavor, but for now, I'd like to free up some shelf...

    Offers are welcome, folks! These still have not left my closet since listing in January, reasonable offers will be strongly considered.

    ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!

    Now that all three of my ZMF November selections have arrived, what's planned of my over-ear collection is complete. I'd spent much of the past year trying all sorts of gear at all sorts of pricepoints and from all sorts of manufacturers, and yet I ended up right back where I started my "nice...

    Comment by 'klardotsh' on listing 'ZMF Eikon - Padauk'

    My ACs don't seem to have much in the way of leakage at all. I can't hear the space heater in the background when wearing them. I haven't had anyone around in my time owning them so far (couple weeks) to let me know if they bleed to the environment while I'm wearing them. And they'll rattle your...

    I picked these up over the winter in combo with my Verites (also for sale now) mostly to see how they were. While they're great, it's time for me to part with these to free up some hobby budget and some space on my shelf :) Thus, here's some seemingly-launch-model Eikons for a good home. - They...

    Wow. Stunning. Bookmarked for when they come back in stock, thanks!

    ZMF Atrium Closed

    Sorry for the necro-reply but I don't think I see anywhere in thread: what are those stands?! I'm sure I'll go slightly distant-stare if I see the price on them, but wow those are stunning.

    Hearing imbalances that change through a listening session?

    Last December (not long after this saga originally started) I went and had them looked at by an ear cleaning specialist up in Bellingham, she ironically said the right side (good sound quality) was worse for wax than the left (dim sound quality) at the time, but that neither side was...

    Hearing imbalances that change through a listening session?

    You're onto something here. I've spent the past few days treating myself as a medical testbed of DIY sorts and trying all sorts of stretches, pressure normalization (something I already have to do all day every day because the pressure in my ears never feels right; maybe this should have been my...

    Withdrawn - opted for a ZMF November set instead.

    Title basically says it all, yeah? Price isn't completely fixed, but is a general ballpark. As with my i4 WTB posting, I'm not really in a rush, and may allow a week or two for offers to come in / see what's available, etc. I am especially interested in aluminum frames - I didn't have the best...

    Howdy folks, I'm casually looking for a cared-for Audeze LCD-i4 someone's looking or willing to part with. I'm not especially in a rush, but it's a sound signature and unique form factor I'd like to try if I can find one at a good price. I use an RME ADI-2 and a Qudelix 5k, both of which...

    Hearing imbalances that change through a listening session?

    Not that I can think of! My ear canals are of somewhat different sizes which might have something to do with it? But I can't imagine a 10% volume imbalance from just that... especially not something that seems to be come-and-go :\

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    This. Sorta like the black-translucent plastic skins on certain 80s/90s tech gear (think the translucent GameBoys and so forth). It'd look super slick. That, or just straight-up clear, like HD820 does with their glass backs. Speaking of HD820, if anyone who has had a chance to listen to both...

    Hearing imbalances that change through a listening session?

    This has unfortunately been happening across countless headphones and IEMs for a year(ish) now, and the worsening lately is noticeable on both my cans and my IEMs. There's no realistic chance that 6 sets of over-ears and 4 sets of IEMs have all been flakey through 5 different source chains I've...

    Hearing imbalances that change through a listening session?

    Wanted to poke around here and see just how common this is, or if anyone has tips on either fixing the root causes of it, or at least brain-acclimating to it. Starting about a year ago, I noticed my stereo image started leaning to the right: just 2% or so at first, to the point that I often...

    What gear do you have laying around that's not getting used?

    My Sundaras - I keep telling myself I keep them around as backup headphones, and I guess I've used them in that capacity in the past 6 months a couple times, but at this point I can't imagine a world where I reach for them over my 660S2s, and I have my sights on some HD800s eventually to fill...

    This was my second time doing business with seacard, first time buying from them. Ultra-fast shipping, device arrived in basically-flawless condition, and included EQ presets to play with! Thanks!

    This seller is awesome y'all - I bought my (now former) Meteors from them; they take great care of their gear and ship super fast. If I weren't focusing on the over-ear collection right now I'd be super tempted to snag these. GLWS Zeno!
