Auteur Classic — Ziricote LTD
The Sound of Depth, The Look of Legend.
The Auteur Classic is where the ZMF journey begins — our first open dynamic headphone, reimagined with enhanced air, smoother dynamics, and added spatial depth thanks to the Atrium Damping System. It’s the headphone we recommend to anyone stepping into the ZMF world: neutral, musical, and endlessly versatile.
For this limited run, we’re featuring the Auteur Classic in Ziricote — one of the most visually captivating and tonally unique woods we've ever worked with. With swirling dark grain lines, rich chocolate and espresso tones, and occasional golden highlights, Ziricote is like holding a piece of sculpted earth in your hands. No two cups are alike — each one a naturally formed masterpiece.
Sonically, Ziricote brings a touch of added density and focus, lending the Auteur Classic a slightly tighter low end, controlled upper mids, and a touch more weight in the note — without losing the open, spacious quality that defines this model.
