ZO2 Impression Thread

The output impedance stays the same, it's not volume dependent.

Well it's just I'm hearing different. Mids seem a bit more prominent with low gain and high gain is slightly more V-shaped, wanted to know if there was any connection in that measurement.

Did a rough measurement (47ohm load @ 1kHz). ZO1 comes out at 0.46ohm and ZO2.3 (in ZO1 mode) is around 2.3ohm.

Is there a discount code for us when we order?

Just to let everyone know, we are going to take down the ZO2.3 replacement request form in 48 hours (so you have until Friday at midnight) to submit your request.

I just want to say that this kind of above and beyond customer service as well as your forum involvement is a big part of what convinced me to take the plunge and order a ZO last month. It arrived yesterday and I'm very glad I did! Keep it up and you'll have customers for life.

Anyone get distortion with the new v3 using line out from a soundcard? My pico distorts the Zo extremely badly. It works just fine with my Ibasso 4 though, and runs to my speakers just fine, so the Pico isn't the problem. With my HDP the Zo works fine, but anything past 2 o clock it begins to distort again. I feel like maybe it cant handle the line out from the Pico? But I had a v2 and it played JUST fine with the Pico. It is a little disappointed and disconcerning...

Whoa! You had a V4??? I didn't know they even made a V4, yet.....

Are you using low or high gain when you are using it with your sound card?

He probably meant V2

low. even the lowest contour and lowest volume gives me distortion.

The line out level on the Pico is 2.84Vrms, which is more than double the specs for both consumer and professional line levels!

The ZO2 has been designed to handle consumer and professional levels, but not anything above that.
 
If you want to use ZO with your Pico, you will need an impedance adapter (or volume control cable) on ZO's input.

Not right now. Sorry!

I want to know if someone else uses their ZOs on max level (bass wise) all the time? I don't use it with IE80 on the go but at home I always use it on red no matter what I do.

Even on my bass light cans I usually don't turn it up all the way.  In most cases, I only crank it 3-4 clicks.  Most extreme setting will be in the orange.  You are a BASSHEAD.
