I can't wait to receive these Eris headphones in the mail, and pull an all-nighter with Mass Effect and music. Thanks for sharing your passion with us in an incredibly personal way.

  • @TheAnarchicBunny
    @TheAnarchicBunny 3 дня назад +4

    So mine just came in the mail. I'm really not good at describing headphone/audiophile terminology but holy shit *these* are indeed bass cannons.
    All I can tell you as of now is that the songs can be hit or miss but for the most part its really fun and enjoyable. Some songs that are already bass heavy can feel a little much. Its definitely got a sparkly kick in the high end. Not really enough to be sibilant to my sensitive ears (thank god). And bass is of course overwhelming, but as advertised.
    Also the first thing I tried was plugging the 4.4 end into my Singxer SA-1 and the metal cable end was too fat to large to fully connect lol. (Thankfully I have adapters for everything). These also sound wonderful on the Geshelli Erish 3 amp. Gonna try my Liquid Platinum amp later.
    Also I'm not sure if Zeos would be proud or upset at this, but one of the first things I did after listening to a few songs was to pad roll them with a spare pair of ZMF pads I had. Universe hybrid perforated pads I believe. It actually makes things wayyyy more neutral and less bass congested. (They were still pretty bass-y) Only issue is that the pads were a little too loose but sounded like a normally tuned pair of headphones with them on. But at the same time I feel like it defeats the purpose since these were meant to be BASS CANNONS. BITTERSUITE from Billie Eilish was a night and day difference between the stock pads and the ZMF pads. So you have that option if you feel like its a bit too congested / bass-y for your tastes. YMMV depending on the pads you roll with of course.
    I'm 13 headphones in my collection and the Eris is easily the most bass heavy pair I have and I sort of love them for that. The comfort, the amazing cable, the fun factor and the price sort of makes it a good addition to anyone with a decent collection to have. The only thing that I have that can come close to these bass wise is the DCA Aeon Noire's. Granted the Noire bass is a little tighter but its also like $500 more.
    So overall, I really like them due to the fun factor and obviously the pad-roll potential. Really awesome package for the price. Happy to have them in my collection.

    Hey Zeos, I really hope you see this comment. I’ve been a huge fan for years, I’m wanting to support you in buying a pair of the Eris. Unfortunately, Linsoul is charging $30 for express shipping, usually this isn’t an issue if it’s a complementary option, however it’s the only shipping option. To me it feels a little “scammy” to only offer “express” 3-5 day shipping for a preorder product that won’t ship out until July, not to mention it’s stuck behind a pay wall. Being a broke college student I just can’t justify paying for shipping on a $250 product. Just wanted to voice my frustration and yes I’m located in the US.

    • @ZReviews
      @ZReviews  Месяц назад +8

      According to my contact there? All headphones they sell have this surcharge. Other smaller items like IEMs and DAPS are sometimes shipped free because they're much smaller. Unfortunately I wasn't aware. If you want to wait until July they'll be on Amazon with most likely free shipping.

      @@ZReviews I'd rather pay $300 from amazon than $250 from a Chinese online store. My browser was hitting me with red flags on that site and I ducked out. Retro Game Corps reviews a bunch of $50-$200 handhelds built around emulation that are sold in a similar way, but I don't trust those sites and the best of them make it to Amazon eventually. It's not like a Steam Deck can fit in your pocket, yet that ended up covering enough bases as someone that hadn't bought a handheld since GBC in 1998 for Pokemon R/B/Y.

      The only special piece you will need is likely a 4.4mm to 3.5mm adapter. If your amp doesn't do balanced out. They are offering it on the product page for Eris for $13. Then you can use a 1/4 adapter if need be and run from any standard amplifier on the existing cable.

    do your headphone sound more like hd800s or empyrean OG because you got me hooked when you say bass+stage

    Go back and watch your Athena review -- you actually had really nice things to say about it. So much so that I was tempted to buy them, but I'm glad I waited for your Eris. The wood and steel Harmonicdyne Helios, which you gushed over way back in the day, is still one of my favorite headphones (after pad swapping). The build quality on these looks better and the headband design is definitely refined over the first iteration (though mine are holding up ok). I don't have any super bass-heavy cans (only your Rinkos) so I'll keep an eye on these after they've released and I have money again. I just picked up the Sivga Luans (based on your review and those of others) and am in love with them so far.
