    ZO2 Impression Thread

    OK, my two ZO2 showed up today. It took me 7 hours to get alone with them and take a listen. I first really like the toggle switch that controls both volume and contour. It works real well. I am using two of them because I have a hearing imbalance of 21% between my ears. I know because of my...

    The ZO2 Has Landed.

    No offenses taken. Not only does it take time to be aware of a amp but how many will ever be able to tell the differences in any number of a couple dozen different entities. If this gives a animal like me and you a spin what about the whole music industry. Headfi is a beta study for this...

    The ZO2 Has Landed.

    You have the right to reserve the right. I do not blame you for being skeptical. But this is the real thing. The reality is if someone can not hear the improvement this device does to audio they should look for a different hobby. Like ping pong or darts.

    The ZO2 Has Landed.

    It is very simple. I am only using one side of each stereo amp. One amp is ring the other amp is tip. Since there is no signal going thru the other side there is no competing noise in the case. The cable is simple. A stereo male to 2 mono right and left, ring and tip. then coming out of the amps...

    The ZO2 Has Landed.

    The only thing the ZO changed was everything. The ZO2 will change everything else. I own 2 ZO 1, in general I use one in my car and the other portable. In my can I have a Numark DJ, 40 second delay CD transport for a source. It gives me a triple beam laser pickup which will deliver the quality I...

    Taking pre-orders for ZO2 now!

    I ordered 2 of them. I own 2 originals and I would miss them if they were gone. I am excited to see what they came up with on this new one. I am not privy to inside info but I remember hearing or reading a email I had with them that the abilities of the Zo2 go beyond the sonic abilities of the...

    Aftermarket cables for the HE-6/ HE-500 etc.

    Yes I did. I also thought it would be nice to get a XLR ending in a speaker cable connection made out of the same wire and there was no interest in helping. We are not in the cable business as I remember. I then asked if they knew where I could get the same cable. Once again I do not know, only...

    HifiMAN HE-6 Planar Magnetic Headphone

    No I have not messed with the headband at all. The shape is still original. It is just a little irritating that there is all that space to adjust in the other direction but it does me no good. I have only about 20 hours in 5 months on these because of this misfit. I would even pay someone to...

    HifiMAN HE-6 Planar Magnetic Headphone

    I have a little problem with my HE6 fit. The headphone sits to low on my head. Even in the lowest position I still need them to go up a little. I use a sponge under the leather headband to get them up to where I need them. Does anyone out there have a good ideas to raise them up a bit. Like 1/2...

    Aftermarket cables for the HE-6/ HE-500 etc.

    Does anyone know where to buy the cable that the HE6 comes with. I would like to make a extension and would like to use the same cable. I asked the people at HiFiMan and they said they do not deal in cable and only the manufacture would know and I found they were very reluctant to  help find the...

    "ZO What" The Heck Is With The Zo

         I read a couple of threads about a ZO. I did some research on what the heck a ZO did. It is a electronic sub woofer for IEM and headphones. Just hearing that in a review I almost stopped looking. I was sure it had to be crapola. BTW it is being sold by Sharper Image which is strike two. It...

    A letter from Dr. Xin

    The differences are indeed interesting. I have teamed many different amps just to see what it would sound like. If you are a real neurotic audiophile it could make you crazy. I am a bit more relaxed and sometimes it reminded me of live stage when some musicians are on Fender on the left and...

    A letter from Dr. Xin

    I would love to hear from him but no reply. I remember when I ordered my first amp from his I sent him a email and said I do not know what a buffer or a op amp was so maybe he could help me make a decision on what to do. He laughed on the other side of the phone and in his broken English he said...
