On that other headphone forum a couple of people have called the TA-ZH1ES mediocre. I just don't get that at all, I think it's fantastic.[/QUOTE

No accounting for taste I guess.

As for many other goods in the world, people are paid to spread FUD. In this case it could be because they are afiliated with dealers who cannot carry a certain product because they would need to carry more products from their product line to become authorized dealers. There may be better amps out there, but mediocre and ZH1ES in the same sentence would only be something that a troll with deceased hearing would say. It is so easy to troll people that even the most lowlife person could do it. :)

BTW: Not receiving email notfications of new replies, even though I'm subscribed ?!

That happens to me about twice a week. I have to unsubscribe and resubscribe to get notices on a thread. I've sent that anomaly report to Jude already but received no response as to his being aware of this

Gave in and ordered one on UK Amazon. Open box was already reduced £300 and another 20% off with a free 30 days trial Prime membership made it almost affordable

Looking forward to your impressions, this thread has been a bit quiet recently.

I love the sound, but also the build and functionality. It's built like a tank, everything works perfectly and it's so simple to use.

Will get even cleaner when I finish ripping all my cd's and can get rid of the cd player and just have the Auralic Aries Mini as source.

I've fallen so in love with the musical sound sig of the Sony Signature components that I've actually put my HE-6 up for sale as I don't even miss it (have almost not used it the last couple of months).
