It's been a month since I received my personal subwoofer as a gift. I think now is the good time to review it.
Where to buy?
Digizoid official online shops ships to all the countries with fed-ex, it costs around 119$ + shipping
But best bought at
99$ - amazon.com
79GBP(UK) - Amazon.co.uk
Package & Accessories:
small & simple -- shows that the makers are proud of the creation only amplifier + micro usb charger + 3.5 mm connector. But thats what we all need to unleash boom boom and bang bang in ears. Comes small compact and slim box.
Length – 7cm
The amplifier 2 and 1/2 inch long and as slim as ipod shuffle that means no hassels carrying around. smaller than credit card and as thinner as my phone galaxy s II.
Almost forgot there is a mannual inside how to start and connect amplifier and mentions about 32 modes it has :)
Sound:
I am not deep into sub bass or mid bass or something else dunno all those terms. when I connected firstly sII + Zo2 + Brainwavz HM5
I was blown away by the bass improvement. It was in high gain mode
which is colored pink on the amp(default). Because generally HM5 isn't bass heavy it has some punch but its definitly lacking but taking it 56 ohm impedance consideration and easy to drive nature the bass was punchy and awesome.
To start using:
pretty simple taku zo2 headphone and 3.5mm connector. place one end of 3.5 mm connector on zo2 one port where music symbol written and insert your headphone jack into the port where loud speaker symbol is there. connect another end of 3.5mm cable to audio source.
Ease of operation just only 3 ports & one button
1 audio source port
1 audio out port (headphone)
1 charging port
To switch it on just push in the button it will turn on LED to RED color. again you push in it will show you Pink on LED light
RED - high bass mode
Pink - High gain mode
as they mention in mannual they have 32 modes one for headphone one for iphone one for 5.1 But i got this for BASS for my headphone so I just use it with high gain mode.
When in red light if you turn the knob on right side to down it reduces BASS and if you do that by holding 5 secs it will be yellow which is no BASS mode.
When in pink if you turn the knob down for 5 secs it will go from purple to blue which from high gain to low gain. low gain modes are for iphone not quite sure what it does.but if you again wanna go to PINK high gain mode just hold the knob upwards for 8 secs LED will go PINK. just keep in mind that volume should be low because it doubles up the volume with high gain mode(200%).
Coming to the overall sound I used it with HM5 and klipsch x10 and low end sony ex-85. HM5's BASS was definitly improved and punchy. I was watching a movie and all the explosions like happening infront of me. it didn't degrade any of the trble or the clarity. But there was slight hiss at higher volumes.
With X10 iems as we know they are already loaded with impressive bass after connecting to zo2 it ha dmore tighter BASS not bloated or muddy.
a10 is an analytical iem with BASS. zo2 didn't spoil the experience but I fell improved a lot on movie watching side. I love to have the zo2 while watching a movie. recently was watching movie end of watch and loved it :)
Conclusion:
I would definitly recommend zo2 for the listners who definitly need BASS and those who already have bass heavy IEMS dont think that this will spoil the experience because it definitly does its smart vektor magic and improve the quality. But it comes with some cons, I don't feel using it when listening to melodies. I will try to get one FIIO E11 because people
say FIIO E11 + Zo2 (warm+BASS) works very well. :)
