got my CCA CST. generally CCA tend to be milder (read blander, less V shaped) versions of some KZ - For one - I love this much more than the EDX - this is a properly warm and solid bassy (very Un -CCA sounding) IEM. I'm ordering the other color!

anyone who has a DQ6 and a ZS7? In my opinion, the ZS7 is the closest KZ came to a basshead IEM. everything else is just playing around with the highs and mids. I'm hearing nice things about the xun driver, and I'm hoping for a nice warm bassy set of DD IEMs - are the DQ6's close ?

How would you describe their sound signature without the tactile bass - warm or v shaped or bass light? Also any comparison to skullcandy crusher if you've tried both?

bump - following up - anyone tried out the HS60 haptic?

Yes, that's the one

in my opinion, the ZS7 is a "extremely bassy" headphone which otherwise meets other audiophile standards for resolution, frequency response etc. It is not a head massaging "bass at all costs monster". That in my book is the humble sony XB50. I have purchased every sub $100 IEM that was awarded...

is the static still there when you plug it directly to the motherboard (or whatever source the creative is hooked to)? generally for cheap pc speakers, the headphone jack is driven by the speaker amp circuit - which tends to be have very poor signal/noise

I hope the fire doesn't cause any supply constraints

I found the ES100 substantially improves the sound - much better than a bunch of desktop chifi amps / dacamps I have

Thank you for that list. Some cans I would request you to add to it are Sony XB 950 Variants (AP, N1,B1), 1More Triple Driver Over ear

that looks suspiciously like a nicehck EP10 (thoug the wires and controls are different enough) EDIT: sufficient reviews here confirming these sound different

The responses here are a lot civil than i have seen in other forums. I had a very similar experience - I am used to headphones in the $50 range, and i tried to go directly to a $500 pair as an endgame strategy, and was significantly disappointed. I found that 1. As you go up price points, High...

tequila 1 is available on amazon.com with prime shipping in the US for $66 - for those of you in the US - amazon is a no brainer! If i didnt have a no3 already, i would have bought it

Has anyone tried the new Panasonic RM-M700 and others in its lineup (300,500)Most people are going to dismiss them as "Consumer grade" earphones without even a listen, but I'm curious what they sound like, especially compared to the XB950N1/B1

I don't get the hate for the KZ cables - the brown braided ones that come with the newer models are pretty decent. I've tried a bunch of aftermarket ones and not found much of a difference
