Good stuff! Though, I must say that sibilance is present in mine at times. I'm very sensitive to it (Qualia is far too much sibilance). The sibilance on mine seems to be fairly dependant on what it's plugged into though... more source than amp. My Zhaolu is going through different revisions and this current revision exhibits it. The last didn't, and my bithead doesn't. Having plugged mine into a few things (though not as many things as Zanth) and hearing those things with other headphones, it seems like a matter of accentuated treble within the source.

Though, granted, if it's a good recording, there isn't sibilance, even on the uber-bright source. At some point, I'll have to figure out which direction I want my Zhaolu to go in, or get better taste in music. My point being, you might experience it... depending on your gear. They're very sensitive headphones.

Frankly though, the GS1000 continues to amaze me. It's just so organic.
