Most people i talked to have pain issues due to the rear of the IEM. The airvent part is pointy and hard and if it peaks into your ear, it will hurt after time. So people usually dont have issues with pain in the ear canal but with the outer shell pointing into the outer ear

The same. I'd assume (almost) everyone wears it that way, if possible.

You're in the wrong thread^^ this thread is for the M2 (Second Generation). You should ask here https://www.head-fi.org/threads/the-continuation-of-the-sony-walkman-1z-1a-thread.944508/

BTW i mentioned the WM1ZM2 in my Moondrop MIAD01 Review. In case you want to know how the Walkman holds up against a smartphone, here are my impressions :D https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/moondrop-miad01-5g-hifi-mobile-audio-device.27192/reviews#review-34040

I took the time and posted a review for my MIAD01 https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/moondrop-miad01-5g-hifi-mobile-audio-device.27192/reviews#review-34040

There is a 99% chance there will be no successor. If you don't get one now, you probably will never have one. That doesn't mean there is a zero chance, but it is very unlikely. There have been no upgrade for the TA-ZH1ES either and this one will get an update before the DMP-Z1

+1 Sony sells it

As far as i know, the warranty is only valid for the person who bought it. So if you buy it and then resell it, the new buyer can't use the warranty. At least that is the information i was given.

I would have considered the IER-M9, due to its isolation, ideal for trips :o

Don't tell me that. I just sold my Z1R because I have up on over ear headphones^^ and comfort was one of the reasons Now I feel tempted

I didn't had the impression the MV1 feels cheap, only the Moondrop Void. I hope there is no misunderstanding here^^ i think the MV1 is built pretty good

Its also built much better. The Void is an plastic bomber. But if nobody tested it yet, i might have to take on that duty myself^^

in your place, that would be the last time i'd ever buy an product from that company. The 4000$ are a joke and that they just ignore your request when you write them directly is absolutely not acceptable for an product with that price point.

As some people might know, the Moondrop CEO is a Sony Fanboy (owning the MDR-Z1R as well as the WM1ZM2 and the DMP-Z1. He even gave the DMP-Z1 to one of his employee for an commercial for their new phone ) and so the Moondrop Void was intentially tuned to sound close to the MDR-Z1R. Was anyone...
