Not in the US unfortunately. The Auvio tips opening up the mids and treble sound really nice as well
Eric the M200 is more linear and neutral than the H1. I no longer have the M200 on hand so can't say which is more detailed but I think the M200 was a bit smoother. The H1 on the other hand has a warm lush sound to it that is very enjoyable and I like the sound stage and instrument placement.
the H1 wins hands down for comfort and isolation.
These are HUGE. Sound impressions to follow...
Man dat Ex-1000 box. So classy. H3 total downgrade confirmed
I agree on the packaging. And after some first quick listening comparisons, I can only say treasure your EX1000s my friends.
Out of the box, the H3 sound much closer to the XBA-4 than EX1000, but with a boomy / muddy bass that's actually worse than the XBA-4's. Mids are pretty good quality, but too warm because of the bass bloat. Highs are unoffensive, but also unremarkable. Sadly an overall pretty underwhelming first impression, considering the tech involved and price asked for.
I've never experienced substantial change from burn-in, but nevertheless will let them play overnight. These need substantial change to be keepers, sorry to say.
