These are still available new where I live, so couldn’t resist getting one! Time to see if the hype is real :)

Hype is real! Enjoy a well made single dynamic driver.

Roughly $340 given current exchange rates.

Thanks! If I end up liking them, I'll think about grabbing the 7550 you mentioned as well - they're just over $200 new here :)

You got it at a good price. enjoy, the 7550 or EX800st, are also good, just with a different sound stage.

I think someone said here our in reddit that we should take the filter out of the nozzle to improve the dynamics. Can anyone comment on this working or not? I have both 7550 and ExK. Thanks.
Why don't you try it and let use know.

Exactly in place of the sony filter I put a foam filter from comply tips to not allow dirt to get inside :)
as a result, the sound is clearer, the larger 3D scene and better dynamics :)

First pair was DOA, but I got my replacement IEMs today!
Won't get much headtime this week, as I'm still trying to figure out the fit on my CIEMs, but... you can get this kind of performance from a <$500 IEM? Wow. :astonished:

Just a quick question, if I re-terminate my Ex1000 cable for TRRS for the ZX2 or ZX300, will the cable work on a normal 3.5mm socket, what will I expect will happen if I put it on a normal 3.5mm socket.

trrs is a kind of connector, which can be wired in a number of different ways. earbud with included microphones for phones use trrs for L+, R+, shared ground and mic +. The Hifiman trrs connection uses the 4 'pins' for L+ R+, l- and R- (not in that order.... you could also wire it in any sequence you want- some won;t work with specific gear, other was might actually fry your gear.

hope that helps....
