Very Beautiful

Not final though of course. Recently a few more options for the final design came up. I guess next week we'll be able to experience the current edition. Looking forward to it.

woooahh, they are going for the next level now, good luck to them!

in the price range

Well, they had to improve at least one thing!

And i don't have to read about stealth magnets, 12dB lower noise floor on the other hand...

The real question is, can Mr. Reim tell apart the v200 from the niimbus in a blind test !!!!!!!!!

Fried doesn't have to -- he has fancy audio analyzers !
I know I can't tell, that's for sure !
So the real question is, can you ?

 

[roskodan]

How do you know u can't tell? Do you have some condition? Doesn't really matter, cos the real question is: can we get it 80% off msrp!?!?!

 

[davidespinosa]

How do you know u can't tell? Do you have some condition?

Because I can't tell V100 from V200 !
Okay, maybe if I tried really hard, but it would be splitting hairs.

this thread is getting more and more like a Z Review :9

that wider round portion of the front plate, where the pot is, looks like it could mess with the stacking,

also, i really want luminescent indicators for the knobs need to find some to put in the v200 knob!

and also, the metal stripes covering where the top and bottom case plates meet, on the sides of the device, look terrible!

call Zeos, no front panel input selectors on a $4k device, still better than stealth magnets tho :9

When I try hard, I cannot split hairs
When I do A/B comparison, comparing short fragments, listening to details, I always fail A/B comparison.
This is related to devices, which do not have the high magnitude differences like strong coloration, more bass quantity, etc.
When we listen the music and notice the difference, we don't listen this way.
We just listen the music and accumulate the impressions.
A/B comparison can be performed exactly this way, with long fragments / whole tracks.
In this case it is much easier for me to succeed in A/B comparison.

Sorry had to edit them they were HUGE.

wow, good, i thought it may had been censored... so white, looks like some space ship stuff, thx

 

[Fegefeuer]

nice, updated the OP

It may have to be censored by the government since it uses some alien technology from the future.
