I actually like them a lot.
Main thing about them is that they are somewhat tuned differently from previous TOTL KZ models. If you're on Head-fi, read up B9scrambler's review. That's pretty close to my impressions of it.
Key take away from me : It doesn't have the nasty sibilance of the ZS6. Its a detailed but polite sounding profile, in that the layering and details are excellent but not the "in your face" kind like the ZS6. Its all there but a little rolled-off in the background treble. If it fits you well, its a profile that's suited for multi-hour sessions.
The same thing is found on the lower end of the spectrum, enough bass for most music but not quite the deep and empowered rumble of the ZS6. Again.. polite low end.
The emphasis seems to be "refinement" rather than "energetic fun " as per previous TOTL KZ's and a little on the "warm" side of things.
