Definitely considering it... though it's a bit of a steep jump in price...
Honestly the LZ-A4 is really good. I stepped up to the AKG N40, which is now for sale because I moved onto the Lyra II which wasn't even a big jump between those two but the form factor of the Lyra II I prefer over the N40 and I am preferring a single DD these days compared to Hybrids

I was literally just looking at the Lyra II.... I've heard a lot of very high end over the ear headphones and.... some of them weren't very good for the money.... I'm someone - self employed - that goes from having a tonne of extra cash to being pretty broke, so I can't be casual with with spending half a grand or more on IEMs if they aren't really much nicer than the A4s, which I am very impressed by and frankly which I think are kinda a steal at their price.

Maybe I should be looking more broadly than just Chi-fi.... I don't know... so many option and no real way to demo anything...

Rambling now :)

Took me long enough to get this out. My thoughts on the TinAudio T2;

Nice review. Thanks.
Some questions. How would you describe the mid and upper bass in absolute terms and in comparison to the sub bass AND in comparison to the T515? I have the T515 and I miss there a bit the mid and upper bass kick but find the sub bass a bit enhanced. Do not take me wrong I like the T515 in general much but this is what keeps me away from falling totallly in love with the T515.
Therefore I am very interested in a comparison between the two T515 vs T2. Since you introduced your review accordingly I would like to see if the T2 is a real update to the T515 and why?
Thx

What about Dynamic Motion DM200H
Located in Germany it is not easy to get the DM200H for a reasonable price. Saw this at Amazon.cp.jp for about 200 EUR but I am not registered there. Apart from that for appr. 300 EUR at Ebay.de.
Can anyone recommend a source I can get this promising IEM for about 200 EUR shipped to Germany?
THX

The next upgrade to LZ A4 ,
I have a feeling the increase in price will make it hard to afford . Under 200 usd is a great market since it provides a great balance between sound quality and price.

Great review. I got one question. How does it respond to eq? Is it possible to increase the sub bass by 7 db to make it more pronounced without introducing distortion or loss in sound quality?

On a completely unrelated note how does the brainwavz b400 compare to lz a4 only in terms of pure sound quality?
