I would have the Zero with me. Shame that my list was not updated on the first page.

 
I may have missed the odd post here & there. Could you let me know again please? Cheers.

Sorry, confused; are you saying you want me to post that list again here?
Or PM it to you?
Or you are talking about someone else's answer/something completely different?

Completely unrelated, but as there are a few high end planar admirers on this thread, just wanted to mention if anyone gets a chance, you should definitely check out the new Ella planar magnetics from Blue. Got hold of a pair off eBay this week and they sound absolutely excellent.

They look like something from a 1980s episode of Doctor Who, but the sound with or without the onboard amplification circuit is pretty impressive - so much so my Meze 99s have gone up for sale already. Nice s soundstage for a closed back too.

Layman1 - not looking like I'll be able to make it as it stands, but if I do manage to pull something out of the bag, I'll bring the Vega on your list.

Anyway, back to the previous discussion! :wink:

Those Ella's look mental!  Must be good if you've put your Meze up for sale albeit the Blue is twice the price almost.  
 
If you do happen to make it would be great to hear your Doctor Who cans!

Nope I was replying to @Ra97oR who mentioned I hadn't updated the kit list with his gear.

Me too, I like it but it's nothing like the sky blue colour I ordered

Did you order the duck blue?

Yes, ordered light turquoise but received dark turquoise!

Well I will be definitely checking those Ella's from Blue I was impressed with their first venture in HPs but already had HE-6 so dynamic HPs were low on my list of interests.
I got email from Blue about those plenars but completely forgot about them. l;[] 
BTW did you get them on ebay UK or US?? and if you don.t mind telling how much did you play (total if from US so shipping and import taxes etc)

Snagged them at a good price - they are currently on sale on Amazon UK for £675 but I managed to get a 2 week old pair (with Amazon receipt) from a UK seller for a decent bit less than that in the end as he was selling as an auction.

Too early to say how good they are (and have no experience with midfi or TOTL over-ears apart from the AQ Nighthawks) but they definitely impressed me out of the gate.

Oops, I'll bring up Dx200,80+IT03 if you fancy a listen. Just listening to Jonny Lang at the moment. Sounds brilliant
