ZMF Atrium Closed LTD Vintage Maple

ZMF Atrium Closed LTD Vintage Maple

The closed Atrium in a limited wood edition

Limited edition, available while ZMF makes it. ZMF builds every pair to your configuration in Chicago; delivery takes about 6–10 weeks. The grain and colour of the wood vary from piece to piece and from the photos.

For this LTD edition ZMF makes the closed cups of the Atrium Closed from Vintage Maple. Vintage Maple is maple that ZMF stains by hand. Maple has been the luthier’s wood for centuries, and the stain settles into the grain like aged varnish: denser growth holds the colour back, softer bands take more of it. The result has real depth, with a tone that shifts from gold to deep amber as the light moves. No two maple blanks take the stain the same way. On the closed cup the stained grain runs uninterrupted from edge to edge, rich at the centre and deepening towards the rim.

As standard the cups sit in a black aluminium chassis with black rods. For a surcharge you can choose the Amber Mg12 chassis with Coffee Gold rods, with leather and a BBB strap or, without the BBB strap, entirely in vegan suede. The Mg12 magnesium chassis is about 34 g lighter than aluminium, painted rather than anodised, and may show wear over time.

Technology and tuning come from the Atrium Closed: a 300 Ω biocellulose driver and the Atrium Damping System, which gives the closed design air and space.

You choose the installed Caldera pads (Thin lambskin or suede, top and side perforated, or suede top-perforated only for a warmer sound) and a second pair that ZMF includes at no extra cost, plus the plug of the supplied cable: 2.5 mm, 3.5 mm, 4.4 mm, 6.35 mm or 4-pin XLR.
