Product Description

ZMF – LTD Vérité Closed (Bubinga Wood)

A stunning version of ZMF – LTD Vérité Closed headphones, made of Bubinga Wood, which some consider being one of the best-closed headphones.

Vérité is a term often used in film and television as a style that emphasizes reality, naturalism, and a sense of truth.

The closed Vérité headphones create a wider / deeper sound than traditional closed headphones with our unique attenuation system and acoustic design while retaining all the features of the Vérité Open that the owners love.

Utilizing airflow openings to build three-dimensional soundscapes of an acoustic image, the design provides a natural, deep, and circular sound field without emphasizing any single dimension. Enjoy your own personal audio Vérité.

This special batch of LTD Edition Olive wood is the first batch ever made at ZMF to use this extremely rare, beautiful, and dense wood. The first thing ZMF noticed while working with the olive tree is how great it feels when smooth sanded. The texture is like effortless velvet, which makes this Verite Closed wood our favorite that can only be held in the hand and admired.

With its 2700 Janka rating, it’s at the top end of the tree’s density. But still retains a touch of “decay” in the sound world, making listening fast, immersive, and natural. The solid weight of the low head and the speed due to the inherent density of the olive will make you admire the sound as much as it looks!

Aesthetic Sound Quality of ZMF – LTD Vérité Closed

In contrast to the bass, and there’s some case to be made that it’s hard to produce a juxtaposition (they are equally impressive, after all), the midrange on the ZMF Vérité Closed is its crown jewel. It is apparent, at least to my ears, that this headphone was tuned with the midrange in mind.

The ZMF Vérité Closed is a wizard in this aspect, thanks to its uncanny ability to produce voices that are chock-full of emotion, passion, and expression. There is a grand sense of mastery here. With the Vérité Closed proudly churning vocals that become the star of the show.

They are natural and potent, yet delicate and revealing. During crowded passages, the ZMF flagship handles separation with ease. There is a good and adept distinction between a bunch of voices and the instruments that comprise a song.

Optimum Comfort with ZMF – LTD Vérité Closed

Despite its (rather bulky) appearance, the Vérité Closed isn’t as heavy as it seems. Tipping the scales at a hair under 500g. This headphone is surprisingly very comfortable to use for an extended listening session.

Much of this attributed to the way the product’s mass distributed over the top surface of your head. Plus, they don’t get too warm, at least, not in the way that some of my other headphones do.

Last Thoughts about ZMF – LTD Vérité Closed

Finally, The Vérité Closed is a home-run hit from ZMF Headphones. Zach Mehrbach has crafted a truly splendid headphone that hits top marks in many aural-related aspects. The closed-back market often overlooked when the best of the best considered, and this is not difficult to comprehend why.

The very nature of open-back headphones affords a greater and more flexible platform to showcase better technical chops. Especially in the areas of staging and imaging.

Nevertheless, ZMF has a product in its stable that overcomes the traditional challenges of a closed design. Goes toe-to-toe with some of the best open-back headphones on the market. 

In the closed-back market, it is certainly a world-beater, blending excellent technical capabilities (resolution, staging, dynamics) with a musical tone that plays very well with myriad genres of music. You will enjoy the Vérité Closed with EDM, Pop, and Rock.
