Funniest thing happened.
I went back to my beloved Denon D2K's this evening after listening to the MH1c for about a week now.

I'm selling them.
Sure. It's not fair comparing an iem to a full size headphone. A good one at that.
D2k's have these iems beat in soundstage and instrument separation and refinement and all that other good technical stuff.
But.
In addition to finding out that what I thought was stellar subbass on the D2k's is nothing compared to what iems can do (cuz their closer to your eardrums and all that good stuff).
In addition.
I prefer the sound signature of this MH1c (and soon to be xba-3).
On a tangent.
I finally understand the frustration people have with the cable.
Most of my prior listening as while laying in bed or sitting down listening or walking/jogging.
Tried using them while doing chores and all the turning/moving I had to do with my neck made them almost fall out my ears and had to readjust the fit.
Guess I'll be doing the "transform to y-cable" tape mod afterall.
