I stumbled upon an article with Bob Ludwig and got curious if anybody tried them and can confirm his claim? Source.

Well Crin actually liked them and I think Audeze should use his bite sized statement about them as marketing for the CRBN tbh... It goes, "Fuck, this is good"😅 that is as good a marketing pull as any

The Z10e, I've heard nothing but praise for, but CRBN I have not. I would really demo it against other well regarded stats before buying.

I have tried both but sorry not together. I’ve always liked LTA and came close to buying a Microzotl 2 but found a great price on a pair of Abyss AB-1266’s and was pretty sure it wouldn’t be a good fit but pretty sure the Z10E would do just fine. I think the only Estats I’ve heard from it are the DCA Voce and Stax SR-009’s and it was quite good but don’t think it is the best I’ve heard as the Woo 3ES is pretty special but didn’t hear them side by side . The CRBN from the 3ES is very good but the Stax SR-X9000 from the 3ES was amazing. I would also say the 3ES and CRBN was a bit better to me than the CRBN’s from a Blue Hawaii but that is just me.

I tried this setup at CanJam last year. It did indeed sound better than anything else I heard (Susvara, Final D8k pro, Utopia)

Having tried this myself, it was so much better than I was ready for. I was waiting to listen to the MM-500 and the CRBN was already available so I tried that first. Absolutely fell in love. Ended up liking it more than the MM-500. I wish I had more time with them, as they were one of my favorite headphones at the show.

Or, y'know, maybe people here don't have $10,000 to drop on headphones?

i was talking about how most people haven't tried the headphones that they talk about, and claim to know all about it; effectively parroting what they read without confirming anything
