    Strangely, I preferred the tonal signature of the Zen. SA6 came off as a slightly more shouty, even with the bass boost turned on. Maybe it's a matter of timbre, I really like the timbre of the Zen despite female vocal being more forward than I would like. Need to mess with tips. Could be because it's something new. What the hell is in the Zen?

    Zen is single dynamic with a Dunu in-house made driver and surround.

    Is it too late to participate in this loaner? I'm located in SoCal so I was hoping to get involved at the tail end if it's not too much trouble.

    I just got them. Now I have to listen to them. Damnit.

    first impression of SA6 on my zero output impedance amp the 789 is positive. But I think the output impedance is hiding dark secrets.

    Checking loaner location. Is it with @rhythmdevils or @neogeosnk? Last member of tour will need to contact me for where to send next. It’s going on another tour outside of SBAF.

    Rhythmdevils already shipped it to the next tour, so we are good to close this loaner tour.
