Awesome. Thank you very much. I have heard the name but didn’t think to look. These look great.

Thanks a lot. Good call in the Audeze cables. They are pretty solid from my experience. I’ll have a look again.

Hi folks, quick question. I’ve been using my Eikon’s for about two months now And really enjoy them, but one of the things I’ve noticed is that I get tons of noise from the cables when they rub against the color of my polo shirt or whatever I’m wearing that day. I use them mostly at work and...

I felt similar when I got this a few months ago. I felt like they were muffled, which I think is a comment a number of people have written along this thread. I don’t know how long I listened to them that way, maybe 10 or 15 hours, but was quite unhappy with them compared to the Deva Pros that I...

Awesome thanks a lot. Looking now!

Quick question for you seasoned ZMF owners about Dacs. When I auditioned my Eikon’s at the shop, they were running them off a Bartok dac amp. I really liked the sound—to me airy, punchy, crystal clear. A bit sparkly on top which I could have done without but not bad. I’m in Japan and the Bartok...

I just sold a 2020 vintage LCD-XC because I personally couldn’t get past the weight. Like previously mentioned you never really forget that you have them on. I’m 6 foot two at around 220 pounds, so it’s not like I’m particularly small or skinny either. Where I am based in Japan, a dealer had...

Thanks for the reply. Im going to have to hunt for some Beyers. They’re not super available where I am but can be found with a bit of a trek. Seems like the not-so-expensive Beyers can be quite good with a bit of pad rolling.

Thanks for the advice on this. After reading your reply I shifted my thinking and had a chance to pick up a d9200 for about half off and just missed out. Hunted a bit a found a new ZMF Eikon that someone hadn’t picked up at my local retailer. Not 1:1 same but I think they’re similar.

Howdy! I have been lurking in other threads but was hoping to pick everyone’s brain on something here. I just had a chance to demo an Eikon and Liric which I found I liked. But came back home and fired up my 660s and I think I prefer them (eq’d to Oratory). Each of the headphones has their own...

Yeah a local shop has RME available to demo so before I go and make a rash decision I’ll heed your advice and give EQ a shot (PC EQ not an option for me at the moment with my setup). Thank you!

I received my 2020 XC’s today. Being more than 6 feet tall and around 200 pounds, when I read about them being heavy I figured I’d probably be OK, but man these things are super heavy. I’m not really sure how I feel about them. Having read a number of reviews, I knew that they have good sub...

Thank you for the reply to this and thorough explanation (and apologies for not acknowledging it sooner). I debated getting the limited leather model locally, but then noticed an essentially open box pair of the carbon cupped ones on eBay for a reasonable price and snapped them up as I’d still...

Hi Head-fi community, I just acquired an open box set of XC’s with carbon cups. I checked the serial number after making the purchase and realized they’re like 10 units before the 2021 driver update, making them the 2020 drivers (rather annoying but live and learn). I’m currently using a Zen...

Apologies I should have clarified. Zen Dac 2. Financially I’m in a position to be able to upgrade or add something by maybe a grand provided it doesn’t take much space, just still trying to wrap my brain around what I really need.
