Keep telling yourself that till CAX SuperGold is released, then there is the UltraGold... and the HyperGold after that...

.. or as they said, death (or deaf, I supposed) is the only escape.


Well, perhaps if I can sell stuff to finance the purchase. But $300 has been the limit for earbud purchases for a while. Remember that I used to collect vintage Sony and Aiwa earbuds and prices can really shoot straight up. Just once I went over the $300 limit and stopped bidding at around €600 on a pair of mint Aiwa HP V9. That auction ended over €800. After that I started to question if collecting really was worth it and soon I let that hobby go.

I'm most hyped about the upcoming Blox flagship actually. 3 Cypherus earbuds might be enough for me.

Haha! That is more than even I would pay for an earbud (well, at least excluding shipping costs).

Zen 2 wasn't my cup of tea, but I'm still looking forward to your impressions!

@vapman You keep posting pics like that, and I might break down and put together a Taobao shopping list.  I still have some Rose products I want to try, as well as some stuff I'll buy off suggestions of you and others that know what to look for on Taobao.

Finally we will get a good review of zen 2 vs black zen 2!!!



I'm hoping he will buy a pair of CAX Black Edition so that we can get a comparison between that and Zen 2 Black Edition...

So i am the bet here for all comparison ? :D

@golov17 I'm quite curious about the sound of that one, but unless it is an absolute pinnacle for an earbud, I can't see any point in buying it unless the aesthetics are really worth it, which I must admit it's certainly lovely looking.

You make me look like a cheapskate...

Lol, let me know your impressions.. obviously when i will compare my Zen 2 black with Zen 2 stock.. people can interpolate from that easily !
 
Needless to say i will compare Zen2 black with Shozy Stardust, Masya, K500 :)
