I can do the Beats studio, they have the most bass of my headphones. Will take vid whenever I can

@HawaiibadboyWhat size paper?
Found a nice track to test cans with

 ​

 
 
The next test track is the Beats track and it cannot be posted until everybody has finished the Wiz track with a 1/2 an A4 paper.
The guy who posted above me needs to use that wiz track with the 1/2 A4
If everybody starts doing whatever they like we will have no comparison at all. 
Stick to the rules.
 
Maybe that can be the track after the next planned track.
 
Thanks for the look out though!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys ^^
Hi HBB, just saw your bass test on sz1000, so how does it compare to the sz2000?
I'm so curious to hear from you.. cheers

  They're bass quality monsters, not quantity. But I can try.. xD

 


That's even better - would be good to know, how the quality relates to quantity.
A little background - I recently tested the Audeze LCD-2 and I absolutely loved them (everything from strong, but extremally controlled bass, detailed mids, and velvetly smooth yet extended highs). If they only weren't open headphones... Some users stated that the Mad Dogs are like a closed version of the LCD-2.

I've actually heard the LCD 2 Fazor and the Mad Dog, it's hard though to compare the two. I ran the Mad Dog out of a Hybrid Tube, a very warm one. Ran my LCD 2 F [which is different from the MAD Dog now] out of a balanced solid state

I ordered. If it's like the original ZO all us bassheads will love it, and it sounds like more than just an add on for double amping as I used it.

 

[DisCHORDDubstep]

Well, 225$ makes it more pricey than the O2 and the E12... At that price, it better be a great standalone amplifier. There is a ton more eq options looking at it. Congratulations. You're gonna be one of the 225 first people to have one.

I'm a brand loyal customer and wanted to be so for this company.
I put myself on a mail list for contact/announcements  (2 different times with 2 different mails)
 
I got nothing. No notice. Nothing specific and nothing generic.
They are not so big they could not respond to the mail list supplied to them as asked for on their site.
Val from Vmoda engages his community. ZO does not. 2 or 3 bass centric threads on Head-fi and no attempt at guerrilla marketing?
 
I'll pass.
 
I do look forward to someone bringing their ZO3 powered rig to the bass battles.

 
 
 
 
I'm heading to the beach.
After that my sz1000 is gonna lay the smack down on someones cans
