This was the loaner unit of which a dozen people put their grubby hands on it, and stuck them into their orfices. Guaranteed to be in working condition. Sony's lame attempt to at a hybrid which was to be the next coming of the EX1000, which it was not. Best "fair and balanced" review of this from was @Kunlun:

I think Sony pulled off what they wanted to with the ier-z1r's sound. The trade-offs of different qualities to the three drivers or whatever tuning tricks they used to keep the sound of each driver civilized in whatever part of the frequency range are just part of that design philosophy. It's at least a mature take on an iem and sounds like it to me, an iem whose sound makes a credible argument for why it deserves to be a flagship iem. That said, play a cello concerto (one instrument, full range) and listen to the emperor have no clothes as Yo-Yo Ma ends up sounding like he is playing a trio of slightly different instruments in a test that a much cheaper single driver iem passes easily. I think I'll leave it at that.
​

Personally, I think it sounds like ass, but at $840, it's not so bad. SBAF's loss is your gain. Will keep dropping the price every week until it sells. SBAF Friends take $40 off the price. Contributors get $20 off.

 

No photos. It's a loaner that has gone through a dozen folks. Probably snot, boogers, maybe some cum from dudes using it to watch Japanese anime porn.

Oh good. Shipping to Canada always worries me.
