>>>woh woh u say it sounded better than the dx90, that's a big statement can u elaborate on this
DX90 wasn't doing it for me. It seemed to have poor separation between frequencies, the highs weren't as crisp. FWIW i liked my ZXR a lot better than the DX90 too. I'm also used to Focal Utopia BE sound so i guess i'm pretty spoiled with precise high frequency separation (or whatever it is that makes the highs sound really awesome). But even if you just look at THD numbers you'll see that DX90 has 0.0015% and M8 has 0.0012% according to gsmarena.com, and for M8 that's actual measured THD, not claimed so i'm a bit skeptical about accuracy of DX90 numbers (not measured by an independent source).
Unfortunately I did hear some crackling, in particular on the beginning base line in Fifty-Fifty Clown (Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas). But then i played it also on my SB ZXR and realized crackling was there too, just not as pronounced. But yea so far crackling seems like a real problem
