Don't wanna get ahead of myself, but the Ostry KC06As are currently my top pick out of my collection when it comes to bass. The mids are delicious, too. Something seemed a tad strange in the treble region, and I couldn't put my finger on it. My brain seems to have adjusted to whatever weirdness I initially detected, which may very well be down to being used to a different sound signature.

Oh, you guys who like scores with great bass, get yourselves the Bourne Identity soundtrack. Sublime.

I don't want to go to sleep.

Have you tried the Tenore?  Looking for more KC06A vs. Tenore impressions.

That's definitely reassuring- I discounted the TE-05 for lack of bass, passed up the Tenore for these as well; was hoping for some bass authority from a BA for EDM...anyway, drbluenewmexico had a lot of good things to say and at 89 bucks these Singolos are simply too intriguing to pass up. Any improvement on the KC06A sound sig would be awesome, it is practically ideal for me. Tenso will probably take a couple of weeks but I'll do some impressions when I get them.

 
 
TE-05 has plenty of bass. Could it be that you had a bad seal?

+1, Or maybe extreme basshead? I've experienced hps/iems where I get bass-fatigue where as the Te-05 is "fun" enough for me. A good compliment to my DBA-02 MKIIs.

Singolos are the most fun of all ZAphones indeed after a week of intense burn in they really shine, I rarely use TE-05 and IM70 now because of Singolos.

+1

Hmm, seams as if my post from this morning was never really added. I try again:

@drbluenewmexico and HairyHeadMara:

What's the main difference between the Singolos and the Tenores?

$300 vs. $55 seems like an unfair fight, but look forward to your impressions

  Thinking about checking out the Singolo, were are people buy them from ?....Shipping would be to the UK!

Cheapest would be Amazon.co.jp via Tenso.com.
 
Ebay also has them for $144:

Right out of the box the Tenore is QUITE impressive without burn-in. There is no denying this. I will need to let it burn-in before I can give it a fair comparison to the Doppio. I will say this: Both have an outstanding sound signature. Right now, I still agree with drbluenewmexico that the Doppios is microscopic in digging into the the details of the music, but the Tenore's timbre on female vocals is WOW!!! And the Tenore seems to have deeper bass, but that's expected out of a dynamic. That's all I'll say about the two right now.

Well, it's not unfair because I'm not comparing the Tenore to the CKR9 ....lol 

I'm comparing the Tenore to the Doppio and the CKR9 to the FX850.

Oops, I saw the two packages and thought they were going head to head.  Now I see the FX850 and Doppios on the bottom.

I have no chance to listen to Tenore yet as I picked them up before I went to work, I wil let you know later when I have a chance to listen to them.

Thanks, just take your time.
