Bokeh Closed ["BOH-kay"] ["BOW-kuh"]

Curly Maple – Also known as tiger maple or fiddleback, Curly Maple represents one of nature's most mesmerizing optical illusions in wood. This rare figuring phenomenon occurs when wood fibers grow in undulating waves perpendicular to the grain, creating a three-dimensional chatoyant effect that ripples and flows across the surface. As light plays across the wood, the curls shimmer and shift, producing signature "flame" patterns that luthiers and craftsmen have prized for centuries. The effect ranges from subtle ripples to dramatic tiger stripes, with warm, honey-toned heartwood—from pale cream to rich golden amber—providing the perfect canvas for this natural artistry.

Our Fall 2025 Bokeh Closed LTD showcases Curly Maple cups that highlight the wood's dynamic grain patterns from every angle. The figure dances across the closed-back design, creating visual interest that shifts as you move around the headphone. Paired with a black suede chassis and steel rods, the presentation balances natural warmth with modern refinement.

Sonically, Curly Maple's balanced density and stable characteristics provide excellent resonance control that works beautifully with the Bokeh Closed's 80-ohm LCP driver. The wood's natural damping properties enhance the closed-back design's isolation and bass response while maintaining the clarity and detail this versatile model is known for. Each set celebrates accessible artistry—a portable ZMF that's as easy to drive as it is beautiful to behold, scaling effortlessly from laptops to high-end amplification.
