I was looking around for a frequency chart for the l3000 when I happen to stumble upon a few different Japanese headphone websites. I'm shocked by how many people over there have the e7! Apparently they feel the same way that Wayne did (they hate the cable) but feel it's a good can up to par with the other big boys. Any way here is some threads I found on e7 vs other high end headphones.
