How goes the testing?
Really good to see that the DAC got a firmware update that resolves my main concern.
Could you test how good the range is on the BLUE from your phone, and from a computer? Smartphones usually don't have Class 1 Transmitters, so they'll have a shorter range (30-50ft), but I'm curious if there is anywhere in your house your computer can't reach the Blue. Could be fun to mention. You might even discover that you have a better signal at the end of a hall than inside a bathroom, or near the transmitter but through a wall and outside on a patio.

Testing went well! I really enjoyed the ZEN Air products. Unfortunately my time with them was slightly abbreviated by 1) an out of town work trip and 2) a visit to the ER and a brief hospital stay. I did not get an opportunity to test the BLUE product, but I did have sufficient time with the DAC, CAN and Phono, and have posted reviews of all three on their respective product pages. All three are stellar products. I was most impressed by the CAN, then the Phono and then the DAC.

I shipped them out to the next reviewer yesterday and he should be getting them by tomorrow. Can't wait to read more impressions!

Oh no! Sorry to hear about that ER and hospital stay… glad it was brief and you are out now!
It’s kind of funny, because the DAC is fairly complete and I could see someone on a budget getting a lot of mileage just out of that, but the funny part is both you and I ended up liking the CAN the most . No lie, I kinda miss it!

Just wondering if these are still out tour, as it seems to have gone quiet on the review front.

Really enjoyed my time with the gear, with my personal favourites being the Can and Phono.

I believe Dilbertprogrammer sent them to the next person; I bet they’re waiting to say anything until their review

Meanwhile, the ZEN Signature CAN HD 6XX popped up on DROP (so many capitalizations ), and I was sorely tempted. I’m trying to see if I can get more stuff in for review, but taxes first! I think my impressions here will get buried, so maybe I’ll cut it up for each individual product and post my video in among the text… or do you think it would be OK to copy/paste my impressions of the whole AIR “system” into the gear reviews for each item?

The tour is still on going, it's currently going to the last person now. It's been a bit quiet as I'm still waiting for a few people to upload their written reviews on to the product pages I'm glad you enjoyed your time with the units!

If you're able to do that, then please do!

 

[Evshrug]

If you're able to do that, then please do!

Maybe after taxes this week

Just bumping this to see if the tour ended and if the draw was held for those that wrote reviews?

 

[Rowan94]

The prize draw will be completed next Monday. I have emailed those who still need to complete their reviews for the end of this week! My apologies for the delay!

Hello,
sounds good.
Does one get everything or is it all split?

On the first page it says that a prize will go to one person from each leg of the tour. I am not sure what that means though as I think there was only one person in each leg?

The original plan was to do this, but we didn't get as many people on the tour and unfortunately not everyone completed their reviews. So we were going to pick one winner overall.

BUT, we would like to give you all an option on what we do. We could either pick one winner and the prize would be the complete ZEN Air range, or, we pick 4 winners and each receive one ZEN Air unit. What does everyone think?

 

[DaddyCool]

My first thought is that those that did sign up and do reviews, should not be disadvantaged because others didn't complete theirs and that the original offer that was put forward and signed up to should stand. Having one person get a big prize I feel is unfair to everyone else who complied and helped out.

Hello,
I would agree with @DaddyCool.
There is nothing to add.
