Do you mind to explain it more? What recordings were you using?
Can you compare them with some explanation on the soundstage, dynamics, highs, mids and bass? 
Their sound signature? I sure these information sure will help comparison between them. Thank you :D

From the other thread:
P.P.P.S. Everything I wrote can be applied only to the records with good mastering and good quality of the record itself. There are tracks that despite everything sound practically the same from my iPod and from DX100. But the records that received a good treat at studios had really opened up and sounded great with all those awesome things I've described. And in fact, I was astonished when some records of 2000s opened up less then some records made in 80s and 90s. Before listening to DX100 I was pretty sure that everything recorded after year 2000 must be better in quality then those before.

It's true that the recording technology it's better today than 20 years ago but the way that the music its published not. There's an issue called "loudness wars" that affects most current comercial recordings.

Actually it reads pretty consensual that hm-801 is the worst out of the three, with mixed opinions for nr1 and 2, but mostly in favour of dx100.
 
I wonder about a lot of posts on head-fi...
