Off-topic, but it sounds like you've been hanging out at Reddit.
I think /r/headphone's more objectivist leanings complements nicely with head fi. I like browsing both.

Hahaha, yeah really. Hyperbole is the worst ever, of all time!
Thanks warren, very flattered!
As for the wood, I listened to the cherry and walnut versions, but the difference was very slight. The lamb skin vs. cowhide EarPods seemed to make a bigger difference. From what I could tell, the cherry was perhaps a little more airy and bloomy in decay. A lighter sound perhaps? The walnuts may have been a tad more solid and punchy. Really, the difference only showed in direct comparison. My recommendation is get whatever color you like best : )

ZMF OMNI and BLACKWOOD Impressions and Comparisons
I have ordered a set of Omnis in Blackwood, which no one has heard yet, including Zach! Really eager to hear these, as I have a pair of Vibros in cherry, and a ZMF Master pair as well, which Zach brightened up a bit for me. I was going to upgrade to the Blackwood model, but decided to go for the Omni Blackwood. August cannot get here soon enough!

This is definitely intriguing to say the least. Can I have a consensus that the Omni is fuller, more sub-bass and airier with much better soundstage than the LCD2.2 pre-fazor? If the Omni is all that, I'm in for a pair. By the way, it looks as if the opening of the pads are just as big but round compared to the LCD, is that right?
I won't know until I have them, but just looking at the FR graphs says "yes."
