Hmm, that is interesting. It has been working perfectly since the issue and still doesn't need to be recharged. I suppose it could have been a combination with the ipod also being cold. When I tested my RE0 directly into the ipod it had been inside for awhile. I'll see if I can replicate the problem within the next few days. I was outside today for about an hour using it (36 degrees) but I had it in my down coat this time.



 
If you mean farenheit it shouldn't be a problem. I've used my ZO for 30 mins in -15 C with no problems.

Something happened to make my ZO2 lose volume and become distorted. The only thing I can think of was the cold weather. It was a rainy day (humid) but I wasn't in the rain. After being inside for about 30min it fixed itself. I did not charge it and I have been listening to it for about 5hours since with no problems.

Clip + ZO sure is a very nice alternative to J3 + BBE Mach3Bass.



The J3's have more options though, like bbe Headphone etc, whereas Digizoid only has one variable. I'll try and get both and eventually return one but some opinions from experienced users would be useful. I've read your review of the DO1 dfkt, when you said you preferred the digizoid compared to bbe did you mean just the Mach3bass or did you mean the whole bbe settings.

32 and sunny today. Outside for about an hour with my ipod and ZO2 with no problems. I didn't have the ZO2 or ipod in any pocket just outside in the cold. I have no idea what could have cause the problem I experienced. Hopefully it was just some weird anomaly and not something wrong with my ZO2.

I'm pretty sure your ZO is fine, but if it happens again, make sure to document *exactly* what happens and let me know. That way, we can try and duplicate the incident.

I prefer the original ZO to the sonicmaxpro app for my iPhone that has all the bbe settings.

lol Another comment swaying me away from the cowon and towards the ZO2. Hopefully they'll get back into stock.

. AdvanceMp3players.co.uk is the only site selling them and they are out of stock. I e-mailed someone from your site and they said that Amp3 have ordered more stock. I've tried contacting Amp3 themselves and have received no reply.

Aren't the ZO2s ini stock? I think it was only backordered until the 9th. I ordered mine around the 24th and I'm just waiting until they ship it to me.

Hey I have a Cowon D3 coming and was going to get a ZO also, would they make a good match or am I duplicating many features that I can get already on a D3?
I've been reading the website and find it interesting but you head-fi guys know the real skinny so what is it????

In the middle of reviewing the ZO 2.3, and today was IEM listening day. Man, my Etymotic ER-6i are not happy on the ZO. Anyone else have this experience?



Don't have IEMs but I presume it's in low gain mode (blue bar) otherwise it won't really work out.

I suppose no1 here has experience with BeyerDynamic DT990 PRO 250 ohm + ZO or any other BeyerDynamic 250 ohm headphones (pretty all of them has the listed spec as 96dB sensitivity too). I'm worried how it'll handle this 250 ohm headphone (distortion-wise) and how high you have to increase the volume on the source, for what it's worth I also have the ZO2.1 which seems to be slightly more powerful than ZO2.3 too.
