OPEN YOUR SOUNDSTAGE WITH THE ATRIUM CLOSED
Utilizing the natural presentation of ZMF’s proprietary Atrium 300 ohm Bio-cellulose driver, The Atrium Closed has a fresh take on ADS damping and introduces the concept of gradual diffusion through multi-weighted materials and zoned sonic diffusion. ADS for closed headphones was developed in concert with the Atrium Open to address the joy of owning a closed headphone that isolates completely, provides satisfying sub-bass rumble, and has the musical linearity for any content in your collection.
Directional diffusion through concise damping placement is how the Atrium Closed achieves a sense of isolation naturally.
An acoustic damper is implemented utilizing a variable radius (flat or arched) and specific distance from the driver. The space created here allows for greater perceived depth through both diffusion and driver placement. The Atrium Closed damping system is equivalent to an artists favored brush or a writers proclivity for an analog typewriter. Zach Mehrbach utilizes ADS as a malleable tool to achieve the absolute pinnacle of sound from our proprietary drivers and headphone enclosures. The clarity, resolution, space and impact are byproducts of exhaustive measurements and listening tests to achieve an amazing headphone experience.
[ ey-tree-uhm ] // latin: Roman architectural term referring to a central or hearth room, typically with domed or otherwise pitched ceiling, centrally open to the sky allowing for the control of air.
With Atrium Closed, we explored the versatility of an enclosed atrium through segmented airflow. By diffusing the airflow on each side of the driver, and by creating separate cavities around a diffuser within the cup, Atrium Closed imparts a natural, vast, yet isolating sound.
As with its predecessor, the Atrium Closed is inspired by the architectural acoustic shaping of spaces, Specifically this design reflects the shaping of amphitheaters; both for their status as temples to entertainment, and their ability to carry sound effectively while canceling undesirable noise.
With each and every unit built by hand, all aspects of the Atrium Closed are executed with intention to bring out the very best sound while we honor every piece of wood.
