yeah it's an IEM for basshead IMO. I use it with the fiio X1 for lower hiss and the possibility to lower the bass. not having that on sony really sucks sometimes.
sadly there is a limit to what you can EQ, if you don't feel right with it, I would advise to sell them. I love the IE80, but as a second pair to have some kick ass fun with the bass. I wouldn't pick it as my only IEM, the signature is just too special.

Because of the overwhelming love over the years for the IE8, then this improved IE80 I assumed that I would fall in love with them, don't get me wrong, there is a nice sound to them, just not quite what I was looking for after my Denons.
I will try a bit more brain burn in, but for now.... apologies everyone for the sidetrack, back to the A15

* Equalizer applicable on HiRes files

Early spec is interesting but I don't see myself getting one, since I neither use ANC nor EQ.

i used google translate to read it in english. i just hope that the zx 100 being released will bring the price of used zx 2's down to around $600-$650 as currently they seem to be going for around $800-$850. i love me some sony walkmans & still need to get an f887 as well to go with my e345,f807,a17,d-ne330 mp3/cd and mz-nf610 mini disc, so many walkmans, so little money ...

I still have one A17 rush player BB perfect condition, warranty until January 2016 http://www.head-fi.org/t/779252/two-used-like-new-palyers-sony-nwz-a17-64gb-eac

I'll stick to A series anyway, the ZX100 is over my limit for size, if I go this big it's only for something that also has the juice(like fiio or ibasso), not for some 20+20mw into 32ohm.
 
but it's still really good that they sized it down compared to the first ZX. I really love sony's come back to the walkman world. when everybody is going for more power, they keep it practical, I like that someone is still doing that.

 

[DJVenomSnake]

So should I buy a ZX1 or wait for this?
