Interesting but I find them to be completely different - to me the difference is like the difference between the DT770 and the T70P. I currently own the T5P and don't really like the Tesla drivers too much for their cold/analytical sound. The T70P produced a lot more detail while the DT770 was a bit grainy but with amazing details. All the Tesla drivers are extremely bright compared to their previous generation. It hurts my ears to listen to the T1 and T70P, although the T5P does fair a lot beter. The T770Pro is bright and sibilant but at least it has bass to compensate for it, the T1 and T70P lack any bass, it's practically all highs for me. Overall the DT880 is my favourite of all the Beyers I have heard (I have yet to hear the Custom One Pro but have heard and/or owned pretty much all the other models). It's not as bright as the T1 or T70P and it's actually to my ears a little bit less sibilant and bright than the DT770, more like an openback T5P with a bit less bass than the DT770.
I guess for me the DT880 is the real winner in my book: not as sibilant as the DT770 but with almost as much bass, not as bright as the T1 or T70P and with more bass than either of those. The non-tesla drivers feel more organic to me...
