Closed ZMF suggestion?
Well it's hard to try ZMFs other than Bokeh here. Yes I digged so many threads on ZMFs comparison but I wanna hear more subjective intuitive Bokeh based comparison impressions from owners. Everybody says ZMF housesound but to what extent will the ''lushness'' dark tone on bokeh closed preserved in ZMF lines? Considering AC,VC,CC,Ori3.0
(first post using reddit btw, sorry if something was wrong.)
Some backgrounds...
I have EmpyreanOG right now as my desk setup, I know this one is considered as ''warm'' but for me it's like meh kinda neutral maybe bit lean toward warm. Separation and lushness? is not enough in this can, feels like a bit thin overall. Speed is not enough for listening to J-rock and IDM, for J-pop and chamber pop it's fine tho. My daily playlist is pretty much mixed up. Sometimes listening to hiphops, too.
I happened to listen to bokeh closed at a shop and omg I loved it and ordered a pair for portable listening and I thought I should get some ZMF for my desk setup, too. Also I realized I often start doing tasks midnight so closed is better(but I want somewhat wide soundstage...).
Preferences...
I will only write some impressions on other headphones so that you can understand my preference relative to your preferences.
I tried some LCDs, the same shop had LCD-X, 2,3,5(no closed at all sadge) and 2,3 was fine, liked 2 better than 3. I felt like in 3 high mid becomes so lush compared to 2 but I wish that was low mid. X and 5 was not my favorite.
I have owned and tried almost every Meze, ofc loved empyOG the most, elite was fine, 109pro was good but in the ''warm'' vector and not enough resolution.
Ugh loved Focal stellia and dt1990promk2, but too agile and fatiguing. Loved clear mg pro, too, but idk about that two speakers inside-type sound. Other focals except for Utopia I haven't tried yet, not my favorite.
I recently struggle with the difficulty of figuring out my preference is... I cannot say which is my favorite, DD or planar, cannot say what warm means to me... aaand my playlist is a mess, lol.
