I haven't really spent much time with it and haven't listened to both cables. I just fitted the 102 SSC and burned it in (just finished). I didn't bother with MOE or AOE and haven't heard the Asura or orignal Zens. I wasn't going to bother getting a Zen as opinions vary, but Wild Lee made me an offer I couldn't refuse when I was buying the RA2.0bl.
The microphonics aren't an issue when sitting/lying IMO. To be fair, I'm probably not going to use these when I'm mobile anyway. I'll keep them for home listening. I don't have any other cables, unless the Trinity Master cables have the same fitting (haven't checked).
Did you get a free Zen Lite as well, with your RA2.0bl?
Asking only because it would be a useful point of reference to compare the ZOE with. I'm not planning to get a Zen either but have the Lite cos of the RA deal.
If I had the 102 SSC I probably wouldn't use it for anything other than home listening anyway, so that's fine.
Though I only tried it briefly, I think the standard cable was much the same. I was surprised the 102 SSC was like that. I don't have many earbuds with that problem. Might be a deal breaker for some.
'Much the same' - in terms of microphonics?
