lee370, just for my edification, exactly how many $300+ IEMs do you own ?

Right now I have the FX700s and TF10s. I didn't pay $300.00 for any of them though. Called looking for the deals. But they all MSRP around $400.00. I was lucky to even find the FX700s used for $270.00. I had the IE8s but sold them because the IE80s are an improvement and I felt that is exactly what I am looking for in the sound signature. Problem is finding them at a good price. So I'll just have to wait or maybe even just opt for the IE10 next year. I'll have to sell my Silver Cable though for the IE8 .
 
For home use I use my open-back denon 5000s. With this mod I don't feel the need to upgrade in the full size category at all. They are a full size version of the EX1000s IMO with better everything.

Don't know about him but
 
Just got the Turbine Copper (bought for 150 reg street price 299.00 and up)
waiting to receive the Klipish Image X10 (bought for 120 reg street price 299.00 and up)
Sony MDR EX600 (199.00) My most favorite IEM out of my whole collection.
 
Needless to say I was quite active during the Cyber Monday sales. Some cool amplification that meshes well with my top IEM's would be rather nice. A final version of ZO2 with all the bugs ironed out would be rather neat maybe even a TTVJ Slim or an iBasso amp.
 
This hobby is wayyyyy to expensive

 
 
you and I thought the same about the M80 so I'd like to see some sort of review impressions about the EX600 from you. 
I'd been checking it out and it look quite nice, but I'm not sure if wait for the sony BA's.

You want real impressions as in post a complete review on head-fi or you want me to pm you and give you a quick general low down?

I want you to get the TF10 and compare both in detail!!!
 
jk, whatever you wish is OK, if you are already preparing a full review I'd wait, if not a general low down will be enough. thanks.

Gimme a week or so, I've been putting off doing some much needed reviews because I've been either busy or just lazy. I want to try and get a proper review done as a way of giving back to the community. I'll PM you once it's up James.

OK nice, Im not in a hurry to open my wallet, trust me

Thank you for your responses to my question. Helped a lot to understand the revisions. I'll be getting a revision 2. Will send it back for modification to rev 3, because I want to use it with Etymotics ER-4S (75 Ohm).
I guess I became confused, because rev 1 was not really a revision but just the first production version of the ZO2.

I agree.  In my field, prints are commonly "release, rev 1, rev 2..." with the original being the release drawing.  I think we should be referring to versions instead "v1, v2...." with v1 being the original unmodified unit.  Although, once this is all sorted out and everyone is happy with V3, it shouldn't matter.

ZO v1, v2.1, v2.2, v2.3, ?

 

[gaspir324]

Just recieved mine. Nothing more to add to the others but 2 things:
1. DigiZoid, I raise my hat for you! Keep up the good work.
2. YOU SHOULD FEEL MY XB1000 WHEN ZO IS SET TO 32!!! Enough bass finally.
Btw can too much bass ruin the drivers? Because when I listen to bassy tracks (90% of my tracks at least) in the yellow zone it starts to shake SO much its unbelievable.

I think that's how it goes. And I think the reason for this is that the ZO v2 got a part changed on day of production, so the revision 1 kinda makes sense. This changed was referred to by MizMoxie in one of her posts in this thread.

2, mine got shipped just a bit too early, few days more and it would have been 3.

 

[DannyBai]

Sure hope this is the last time I ship it back to them.

If they are high-quality drivers, it really shouldn't be a problem. We've been listening using the ZO for years (on red), and have never had a problem...

MizMoxie, a basshead? Who'd have thought?
