CHASSIS: Discover the New BOKEH Chassis, a harmonious blend of form and function. Its katana sheath design merges seamlessly with ZMF audio art, offering an extraordinary experience. This chassis is equipped with a 180-degree swivel frame, anodized black aluminum, polished rods, and a cowhide suspension strap that’s as comfortable as it is elegant.

A. Asymmetric fluted earpads: designed to direct sound through manipulation of physical distance and material resistance. B. Oval opening rotated to ear shape for a more natural fit which better retains sound pressure and sounds more open. C. Varied width wedge profile, allows pad to more fully encompass ear to the Mastoid Bone area behind the ear for a more complete seal. Weak seals lead to lowered bass response and and sound quality.

An evolution of ZMF’s Caldera pads design, BOKEH pads are designed to revolutionize your auditory experience. Crafted with precision and patent pending innovation, Caldera pads incorporate a distinctive fluted design, asymmetrical ear-side hole orientation, and a skewed Z-Axis angle for an optimal seal on the submental space of your neck, ensuring unparalleled comfort and sound.

The driver side's inner diameter can adapt seamlessly to airflow requirements, without messing up your sensory experience via the outer diameter that touches the skin thanks to the fluted design. Tweak the circular axis on the baffle to make these pads your own, so the thickest part matches perfectly with your unique contours.
