I am not that rich, but Balanced and silver cables with TH900 and ZX2 is supremely solid. Full size headphones benefit in a portable single device :D that can also go on for days!



The ZX2 can drive the TH900 as it should? I got a very bad experience with the ZX1, the power output was so weak that the device really struggled to drive a 40ohms pair of iems, this is the reason why I didn't bought it.

I saw a bundle offer ZX2+Z7 on www.son-video.com, considering that the Z7 is rated at 70ohms, will it drive these cans without an external amplifier?

The zx2 has the exact same power output as the zx1. It will drive the z7 fine.

Zx2 and Z7 is ok, but ZX2 sounds much better with Th-900... The suck thing is that TH-900 only comes with 1/4 plug, and SE. You need upgrades and mods, unless you buy TH-900 MK2 which comes with detachable cables

Keeps in mind Zx2 is very unique, it has 7 power capacitors with a Super Capacitor inside, and a whole bunches of other filmed capacitors and resistors. It can totally swing high Voltage output or Current depend on the draw of the headphones. Zx1 or Zx100 has only 4 capacitors.

Now, put aside the technical specs. Yes, TH-900 with ZX2 is an excellent combo, totally. Almost Perfect synergy as well, because th-900 has that very detailed highs, where as Zx2 is warmer, more musical with softer highs and more intimate signature.

I am proud to have both Z7 and TH900 anyways. They both compliment each other too well :D, and that my collection is never old hehehe

Close enough? =)
 

 
 

 
That's more like it.
 
So how does the Pure II+ add to the DX90 sound? And how does it compare to the Mojo, in your opinion of course? Thanks.
 
Oh, here's my current rig; 
 

 
The iBasso D14 'Bushmaster'. Sounds great, but waiting for Mojo trial run soon, to decide for next step up.

Onkyo DP-X1 >> 2.5 mm TRRS copper impact audio cables balanced output >> Shure SE535. Perfect combination!




 
I didn't know the Onkyo (or Pioneer) was available in the US yet.  How do you like the player so far?
