I look forward to your impressions!
Having just received the NC750, I think that the on board implementation of NC (and the tonality adjustment that happens) is better on the Z5 / NC750 than it is on the EX750...
Haha, I now have MH750, EX750 and NC750 and they all sound different (ok, I suppose the MH is the weak link here, but - personally I would've thought the EX and NC should sound pretty darned identical!, but even ignoring sample variation, the NC hiss is a lot less apparent on the NC750 and, oddly - there is more power from the phone than the EX750 battery pack)
Oh, to get the best out of the EX and NC you really need to get hold of Sony's hybrid tips, way better than the standard silicon shipped tips!
Edit: Sorry for the half off-topic here, but the NC750 is designed specifically for the Z5, and I find it interesting that the NC750 sounds totally different to the EX750 without NC activated - they actually sound listenable (the EX750 sounds quite dull / subdued without the NC activated, and - as said, the NC implementation of the NC is a lot better on the NC750 - if you want to keep within the Sony ecosystem and you have a Z5, I would strongly suggest adding the NC750 onto the must listen list!)
