Does anyone own both of these headphones? I bought the Fidelio X1S (not the X1) from Joybuy last year during one of their sales. I've liked it so much that I bought the X2HR this week.

Today the X2HR arrived and I've been comparing them with different songs and different dacs. The thing is... I can't tell a darn bit of difference. They play at the same volume, they look identical other than the metal color. When you pull off the pads (the X1S has removable pads like the X2) the driver looks the same as far as I can tell.

There's every possibility that my ears aren't that discerning. Has anyone else compared these two?
