I'm not a professional when it comes to comparing mids, highs and bass, but I think there is just an overall improvement. I compared with and without Zo and I found that there is much deeper and fuller bass, and the mids and highs are more smoothened. Also, the Zo lets e hear things I never ever heard on a record, just because those sounds usually hide on the background. It sounds just much more warmer and fuller sound. As I said I'm not an expert, so I don't know if I explained it right, but these are just my findings when comparing.
Regarding the cable the answer is no, the sound is not improved by much. That's why I said 'maybe I'm imagining things'. Because I was not sure if it did, just thought it did for a little tiny bit. It is logic it does, because each cable has a certain resistance, the more resistance the more of the signal gets lost. But because the numbers are so small, it is barely noticable.
Hope this helps! Let me know if I wasn't clear enough, I tend to mess up explanations in English.
By vast improvement, you mean in what sense? Mids, highs, bass? I want to get perhaps an amp to pair with my C3 but am also torn between portability issues (not sure how comfortable using two devices to listen would be) and money issues because right now I plan on purchasing a dedicated desktop DAC/Amp. I guess I'll leave further improvements to my portable setup for the future. Though I am curious about how the sound is improved for you. Also, do different cables really improve the sound by much? My first inclination would be no, but I guess it always depends.
