Short answer: the ZMF Atrium, though neither ranks well in its class. Both are rated 2.9/5 for sound quality (#362 and #369 of 481 over-ear headphones), and the ZMF Atrium costs $2,499.99 against $2,599 for the Dan Clark Audio Voce, with sound quality a draw, the lower price decides it. Both are rated below 3.0/5 among the 481 over-ear headphones, so if sound quality matters, consider the Dan Clark Audio E3 instead, ranked #1 at $2,299.
The case for the Dan Clark Audio Voce: It uses an 88mm electrostatic driver in an open back design, a rare driver type among current headphones. Watch for: A preference score of 56 from crinacle’s measurement puts its tonal balance far from what most listeners prefer.
What the ZMF Atrium does well: An open-back dynamic headphone with a biocellulose driver and a warm, bass-leaning tuning, with mid-bass about 2 dB and low mids nearly 2 dB above target for listeners who want a thick, relaxed sound. The catch: In the median of 4 hobbyist measurements on squig.link it scores just 58 for preference, with treble from 6 to 10 kHz about 5.8 dB below target and an 11.5 dB dip near 8.7 kHz that dulls cymbals and detail.
Buy the ZMF Atrium. Both are rated the same for sound quality, and it costs $99.01 less than the Dan Clark Audio Voce.
