[Pre-owned] ZMF Auteur

THE STORY In designing ZMF Auteur, Zach created a tuning and headphone platform that allows the listener to “author” their listening experience. It was through this same vein of understanding that the grille ultimately took shape; derived from intensive study of French stained glass windows and the narratives they tell. In continuation of the tradition upon which ZMF was built, Zach combines futuristic audio developments with classical inspiration. That is how we get the Auteur, the lovechild of gothic architecture and heirloom banjos driven by a bio-cellulose driver grown in optimal lab conditions. The auteur and Eikon feature our custom ZMF Bio-cellulose driver. This driver delivers the world’s first open, high impedance, bio-cellulose headphone design. The Eikon conveys the legendary ZMF bio-cellulose sound, with 24 dB of noise isolation. By using a flexible TPU driver gasket, the auteur has optimized dynamic pistonic action. This creates a punchy and lively response, where the listener can feel the full “force” of the music playing.
