The RE-ZERO is a superior earphone to the RE0, amp or not.
pulled the trigger on the RE-ZERO's
The cable will annoy me I can say with 100% confidence, but I know I just wouldn't be satisfied with the RE0s sound as much as I would with the RE-ZERO
It says in the blog and the shop discription that those adapter free RE-ZERO are bulk item without any packaging (just comes in plastic bag, no box).
So it's definitely not something you can get through standard channel via head-direct.
In fact, I have a feeling that they are stuff that the manufacturing factory sold without head-direct's consent (usual stuff with Chinese factories), considering that genuine RE-ZERO is advertised to be limited edition model and only 1000 have been made.
I'm not saying it's a total fake, it probably came from the same factory that genuine RE-ZERO are made, but it's just a shame repsectable resellers are handling grey items.
I think in this case, the RE-Zeros that are in the US store all have the TRRS plug and the newer batch Zeros (that are still in asia) have the standard plug. But the people who ordered the 601/Zero combo got some of those from asia because the 601 itself was just being produced and shipped from there. This is just my take on it, could be wrong.
