I pretty much enjoy the Zen Stream: I use it for Roon as well as Q Play (DLNA). Pity the Chromecast feature has not been turned on yet. That would be a killer feature I suspect.

The ES-R10 arrived yesterday. Gave it a good run out out on the TAZ. :Great synergy with the TAZ. Not surprising, considering the ES-R10 is an attempt to replicate the legendary MDR-R10.
I think the only way you can check the fe version is to connect it to a pc and try to install the latest version. As I recall that shows what is currently installed
I am pretty late to theTAZ party but also feel very fortunate to have one and enjoy using it. Even tho I have the 1AM2 walkman I still nearly always go to the TAZ for an at home session. I enjoy both products very much.
I am not very good at describing what I can hear, so sorry in advance. I have only had both of these units for a few months and came from my only listening device being a PHA-3 (which is now in the draw). From my experience the TAZ seems to be better in most areas but particularly in detail retrieval, everything seems more open, there seems to be more space between the different sounds. The TAZ also seems to control the lower frequencies better, seems tighter and has better extension. The differences are more apparent when I have been listening to the TAZ for extended periods (like over a week) then come back to the M2. All listening is mostly on the MDR-Z1R. Also, I think at this level of gear the differences are small to me and enjoy both devices alot. Younger/Better ears may find a bigger difference, as well as someone who has a lot of experience with criticle listeing. So in summary I can definitely hear benifits from the desktop amp but both are great units. Sorry again for not being overly descriptive, I find it quite hard to articulate what I hear.
