Audeze LCD i4 TOTL In-Ear Monitor Discussion
That's the problem about niche products. If they are not profitable the producer and the dealers fastly loose interest in the product itself and the accessories. For years I've tried to get a replacement for my broken cipher cable (in my oppinion of low quality compared to the i4) . Given the...- ZX2Fan

At last! Last week my replacement battery from Ali express arrived. Was a bit sceptical for I do not trust chinese companies. However, looking at the original battery (from my first zx2, that I crashed) reveals, it's from China as well. Meanwhile, battery, that arrived with level of 19%, i. e...- ZX2Fan

This is really good news. Read abut it already a few years ago. However, nothing has happened so far. Spotify HighRes may be a gamechanger. I'm so pissed about Tidal's compatibility policy. First I could not use their app on my zx2 anymore, a few weeks ago they sent me a mail saying that I...- ZX2Fan

Even without EU volume cap: From my experience I see no way to come to satisfying output to drive the ie800, I'm afraid. And trrs cable is useless for the nwz-x2 can handle the cable, but doesn't deliver balanced output, which is usually louder than the standard output.- ZX2Fan

Do you have another android device? If so, you could install it there, purchase a licence (if necessary at all, I'm not so sure anymore, they mention in-app purchases in the app description) and then sideload it on the zx2. Of course, you can also load it on your zx2 and see what happens. Again...- ZX2Fan

No wonder, iphone is apple, chromecast is google, and androids are google and therefore compatible with chromcast, in contrast to iphones and ipads. I'm wondering what you hear in the bedroom, is it really the zx507 or the device there that just takes the data from the zx507 and converts them...- ZX2Fan

It is in the google store and it isn't. You can't see it on the ZX2 for google considers it to be incompatible with the ZX2, which is not the case. So you actually have to get yourself the apk-file from it, load it onto your sd-card and install it. Don't know about the licence. I think you have...- ZX2Fan

I stream tidal on my zx2 with USB Audio Player Pro. A good old high end music player. It's not for free, guess less 10 EUR here. But it works quite good and allows to combine own songs and Tidal in a playlist..- ZX2Fan

In my view the zx507 is everything but an upgrade to the zx2. In case it is still working I would recommend to do an upgrade to your IEM. I found that the zx2 and the audeze isine20 were a really great combination. They may not be real IEM but better than any other IEM. The isine10 is the ideal...- ZX2Fan

I bought my ZX2 and the ZX507 (which I returned due to volume cap) from Amazon, both not new both exactly in the shape that Amazon considered it to be. These deals are very fair. In most cases it is just a returned device with opened packaging. I always buy this way when I need/want a new...- ZX2Fan

According to Sony Germany the firmware update is for NW-ZX500 Series and NW-A100 Series. No word on the cap. But if they changed it for the A100 series it would be very likely that they did it for ZX500, too. But, we all know, things that are too good to be true in general aren't true.. I cannot...- ZX2Fan

Yes, Mr. Google Almighty considers the app incompatible. That's why I recommended to install the app "apk extractor" from play store on for example your tablet. Search for the "usb music player pro" using the search function and the app loads down the apk file which you can use to install the...- ZX2Fan

Already tried USB Audio Player Pro? If you look at the latest update 5.5.9 in google play store, they actually refer to the xz2. And the best thing: The app allows Tidal streaming, and this with minimum requirement Android 4. Unfortunately, play store on the xz2 claims the app to be incompatible...- ZX2Fan

Yesterday I encountered the same Tidal problem on my old Galaxy S5, i. e. as assumed, this is not an exclusive ZX2 issue. Same situation, same error message. Luckily, this device runs on android 5.1, thus updating to the latest Tidal version was not a big deal. It appears that Tidal wants for...- ZX2Fan

Strangely, can't remember such a hint when setting it up. Anyway, the EU volume cap alone was a show stopper to me. Also, I've also searched the ZX507 thread for referrings to the ZX2. Found exactly one user claiming the ZX507 to be clearly better than the ZX2. A user who praises the DSEE HX...- ZX2Fan

I've read a lot of reviews concerning the ZX507. However, I cannot remember any review comparing it with the ZX2. Although the approach is quite the same (android) noone saw the ZX507 as successor to the ZX2, most of them compared it withe the ZX300 which I' ve never heard. We all know that...- ZX2Fan
