from what ive read z3 is just a z2 with an oled screen and a better playback for most types of audio files. and a lot of headfiers says that z2 is an upgrade to z1 in sound quality, thats why i bought it. but personally i didnt have a personal listening to all 3 of them so im not really the one to answer your question. i suggest you find some headfiers here who owns 2 or 3 of them.
If it is the same sound than the Z2, this is spectacular. Far beyond any smartphones evern V series; you should try it with K10 or HE-6 with line out and an amp like the intruder, you'll be amazed even more with another opamp !
same with you at the first time i heard zishan z3, after i burn 5 days when battery full used as amp or dap, when battery low used as dac till full.... sound was changes... more details, more wide soundstage, great resolution but i dont know what wrong to my ears..... i still like zishan z1, for me sound more natural....
When you can play 8 hours with the normal battery of 1500 mAh I presume you listen to 320 kbps files. With FLAC- and DSD-files it will only play about 4-5 hours. Changing the 1500 mAh-battery for a bigger one of 2600 mAh gives me at least 9 hours of music with mostly FLAC- en DSD-files. It is worth the bother for € 12. I am happy with the possibilty to change the opamp because I could change it for a more lively sounding one. It is nice to have that possibility. And that
for a total of € 50!
