Caldera Closed - planar magnetic headphone.
Caldera Closed. ZMF's first "from the ground up" closed planar headphone. Born from the Caldera Open (Headfonics Best Ortho 2023- the Closed utilized the now Patented Atrium Damping System and the Patent Pending Caldera Pad and Caldera Magnet Systems.
Sonically the Closed version imparts the speed, immediacy and dynamism of the open, while adding a sub-bass boost and tastefully closer(ish) to Harman tuning with the incredible isolation of a closed back.
Aesthetically the Caldera Closed for the first time uses a geometrically "Caldera Volcano" influenced cup shape, with asymmetrical dips and dives that allow the sonic character of our driver to shine through. A unique shape that feels amazing in the hand and much lighter on the head than you could ever imagine.
"In 2011, I modded a t50rp as a gift for my brother. I never would have guessed that twelve years later I'd design my own planar magnetic headphone. I knew I loved the punchy, ethereal and nuanced sound of planars. Through modding a couple thousand t50rp's into different models and tunings for enthusiasts, my "schooling" had begun, and now years later - I'm proud to present the Caldera.

YouTube Video on the Caldera."
