One question. Are you single? My wife would murder me if I owned this many ZMFs.

So lucky, I ordered my Aeolus 3 weeks ago, hopefully they ship soon

My Aeolus came in this past Thursday and I ordered them 6 weeks ago yesterday. You may be waiting a little longer, but trust me, it's worth the wait. They sound fantastic and make the music...fun to listen to. Not sure how else to describe it.

How would you compare your Utopia and Susvara to the VCs? I've been interested in those 2, especially the planar. I don't think I'll ever need any other dynamic after I got used to and subsequently hooked to the ZMF sound. What gets the most head time?
kooltogo OP t1_itebotq wrote
My 2022 Utopia is still in the mail so I’ll give my thoughts on the OG Utopia. Susvara is top tier, does everything right. Utopia is the most dynamic and has the best bass. VC is the best tuned (I like warm headphones).

The VC is my favorite headphone. Just love it!

If I'm recalling correctly you have also been very active in all things ZMF over at avexchange!
After a couple of years of climbing the headphone ladder I'm finally dipping my toes into the ZMF pool and have a new-to-me Aeolus on the way. Very much looking forward to the experience and simultaneously fearing the potential impact on my future wallet...
Absolutely beautiful collection by the way :-)

Thanks! Part of me wants to get an Auteur, Aeolus, and Eikon to complete the cycle, but I’m kinda lazy lol

If there's any completionist tendencies lurking around inside of you then I sense you'll find yourself getting there, LOL
All part of what makes this hobby wonderful!

What's that headphone stand the Atticus is on there in the back?

Bookmarked, thanks. So given your flagships is the Atticus just window dressing these days? Before I got mine I honestly didn't think a closed back could have the SQ to warrant a $1,000 or higher price but I took the plunge anyway, and it proved me wrong.
I don't really have the temptation to upgrade and couldn't afford to if I did, but I do now wonder how good the closed back can get. So does the Atticus do anything the higher tier models don't?

It’s been a while since I listened to an atticus lol, I just got this in a trade so I’ll let you know when I give it a listen

Very nice collection! If you don't mind I have some questions that would be cool to hear about! If you were two choose one too keep which would it be and for what reason? If you were to choose two to keep which two would you choose and how would they complement eachother? Is there any specific use cases you use each headphone for like genres, music production etc, if so what do you use each headphone for and whst do you think suits them best?

So I guess I have a ZMF headphone or two. Verite Closed is still my favorite. The green color is much more vibrant in person.
The Atrium is a great addition, it sound more laid back than the Verite to my ears. It is also surprisingly light, I didn’t have any issues wearing it for long periods of time.
I think the Verite Open looks nicest.
