Come to think of it, I got it out again after seeing your message, Miguel and tbh, it's not at all bad.
At this price, they're really good value I think. I've been listening to such good gear recently, that it kind of skews your 'value for money'. There aren't many closed headphones at this level that behave as well as the Zorros.
In fact, they're more balanced than the Senn 360 which retails at a lot more and is aimed at the same market. By comparison, the Senns are more closed in and have lumpy FR. These are more even handed.
They are fingerprint magnets though!! (Like the Dre's)

Hi Ian, forgot they got discussed here. I have listened to the pair for about 3 hours and I do like them a lot specially at $55 USD delivered (used). They also have a high WAF and quite comfortable. Isolation is acceptable but I do prefer IEM's when I need to isolate the outside world.

I guess the Aurvana's are heavier in the bass?
I find the Zoros really good on low output devices. They work well with the Ipods and no amp because they're so sensitive and the Ipods don't put out a lot of noise for them to latch on to. Some MP3 players hiss through them so I don't use them. I have a Kindle Fire that hisses nicely through the Zoros so I guess they're just a bit too sensitive for some devices, but useful for those low output ones that deliver a cleaner signal.
One you may enjoy or have tried, Miguel is the Sony MDR 7506 or slightly better, the V6.
To me, the V6 is a little smoother. The 7506 has a peakier sound in the mid - treble which can make it sound harsh. The V6 is slightly calmer and in ab out the same price range as the Zorro in the UK.

I ordered a 7506 but I received a fake, was able to return it and have not considered re-ordering it. I will have to compare the Creative Live Aurvana vs. Zoro vs. Porta Pro vs. Samson SR850, all under $100 with the Samson setting me back about $32 USD including S&H.
