Forgive me, but you're sounding a little naive about the build quality of the ZeuS. Super quality doesn't just happen and it takes a lot of effort on the part of someone in the building process. If no tweaking is occuring beyond the Kanstul initial assembly, then you're likely to get a horn of Kanstul quality. That's not bad, but it's not comparable to the very best trumpets. Maybe something else is being done that we haven't heard about. I'd love to hear about the extra effort, if any, that's put into the Olympus.
