Went ahead and ordered the Svara Reds at a nicely discounted rate of $30 including the cable.
Was between these, the tinaudio t2 and bosshifi b3 but couldn't make up my mind, so ultimately picked these for the best looking and form factor (looks to be the most comfortable).
I hope i will not be disappointed again like with the zs6 haha.. Those really hurt my ears. Granted, i have not yet received my knockoff t400 tips and silver ofc cable, but i doubt it would make it much more listenable when they finally come. Burning in with pink noise atm... so much hype for something so unlistenable is really a wonder to me. With aftermarket cables, complyfoams and some mentions of better source being a necessity, the zs6 are not that cheap tbh, and i really expected so much better. I love 3 year old my pistons 2 from xiaomi much more than the zs6!
