Thanks so much! Are you gonna do review on them on your channel which is great by the way!
Oh I am not George! Believe it or not two people are actively replying to what is perhaps the single most inactive headphone thread... no one listens to these!

Well, even Crosszone is not replying when you send email to them….

I have had a great experience with Crosszone. Carol, one of the representatives, was very friendly, answered all my questions, wanted to see my custom cable once it was done, and even invited me to CanJam to visit their booth.

I am not sure how your experience differs but they were pretty reliable with me, it was a long email thread.

I just went to their website and send message to them (2 times) but no answers.
Do you have a direct mail to contact them ?

How many days has it been and what were you asking?

I can DM you Carol's email but I won't put it out publicly because I dont know if she would want that as it may be a more personal email still used for business. If its been less than 5 days I'd give it some time, but idk. They responded pretty quick to me.

I think they leave comms for the more local sellers sometimes, especially if questions are more complex (?)

I am also sad to see very few of us appreciate them, those are some serious quality headphones :)

Thank you, I will review them in both video and writing, the overall Crosszone headphone experience is something pretty darn great!~

How do they compare to the CZ10? Has the resolution improved, and did they fix the random tonal imbalances and mid range scoop? It always feels like the music is too incoherent on mine unless I listen to Jazz, and the resolution is a bit soft for its price. But they are certainly well built, relaxing, and a departure from traditional sound.

The tonality response is fairly consistent with the other Crosszone headphones.

It always tends to sound like the mids are a bit scooped, especially at lower volumes. The higher you go in volume, the better they start to sound. This is not necessarily something I would recommend doing, but I am enjoying them fairly loud. Usually with Astell Kern DAPs the most, they get all of the crosszone headphones the smoothness / overall dynamics and punch they need to sound at their best

Today I bring you a really special review, about a headphone that is closed back in design, but has the sound of speakers in a well treated room! Crosszone CZ-8A has 3 drivers in each ear, and is one of the most comfortable headphones there are, sold & supported by MuSon Project, Inc. and Leben Hi Fi!

If you've noticed the pattern, I try to bring you just the best reviews for the weekend, to have some good info to relax to, and read more about products that I find most interesting.

Best part about this headphone is that despite the soundstage that is huge, it has a forward midrange and you never have to search for the voices and forward instruments in songs, they bring everything to you in a really natural fashion. I compare them to six other flagships, and pair them with 4 competitors, so I hope my full written review is fun to read and helps you with your decision if you're looking for a flagship closed back headphone

These look curious. How are they compared to an HD650 or T50rp mod?

All of them sound wider, much wider than HD650. I have Dekoni Blue to compare, which is a T50 Mod, I think CZ-10 (I assume those you're asking about), are lighter, but wider, more musical, more fluid. Dekoni Blue has more bass and impact.

Comparing them toi HD650, the only disadvantage they may have is the more forward midrange, but everything else, detailing, resolution, imaging, soundstage width and depth, comfort, build quality, they are better than Hd650

I think CZ-10 is more expensive than either though, so it is to be expected for them to be better.
