Sorry, I let my fingers get the best of me.  I very much dislike Hip Hop.  That's all I used to hear around me 24/7 in ridiculously outfitted cars where the stereo is easily worth twice as much as the car it's in and the implementation is done horribly.  It could also be that I really haven't heard any that I like since the Old Days of L.L. Cool J, Run-D-MC, 2-Live-Crew (that was tongue in cheek), etc.  That is when I could listen more... and where every 3rd word wasn't a curse word.  O'well... those days are gone...

The F is slowly replacing its bigger brother. The more you spend time with it the more you enjoy it, and the size is much better to carry than the Z. The Z still has the upper hand in punch and power to drive.

So does this mean that perhaps the Z plays a bit stronger? Can you elaborate on this difference a bit?? Thanks in advance!

Yes there is , but please I am not going to say this is better than this, as it is a matter of personal taste, and what are you willing to sacrifice for ...

 

As I am still on medication (which is affecting my left hearing), I will leave others to comment for the time being.

To put it simple, Bass and I love the Z's bass better....that is all I can say for now (with my JH16 I loved the F more!!!!)

 

The F is a beast on its own, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE IT.

The songs are good, I really like the first one.

Think I am also going to investigate.
