I feel that once the seal is perfectly done then microphonic become obvious. Try tap your head skull by your finger nail or eating while listening music you'll get mad. I normally sacrify a bit on low & mid-low, just let the L/R tip rest on canal opening slightly inward for the sake of comfort...

A very neutral and informative review Zelda you have. I read it several times try to understand what is the sonic performance you've put in words. Looks like I am convinced :) my DN2002 arrived few days ago, it is excellent as your review. Overall, it is clean, natural, high definition, wide...

Our brain remembers sound precisely. A single word 'hello', you'll know who is speaking. Before/After burn in I am not sure how much difference it could be but I am quite sure our brain knows the difference.

In 30 years ago, turntable moving coil cartridge requires demagnetise after about 100 hours play time. Moving coil cartridge cleaning device such as Panasonic and AudioTechica were quite common. After cleanning high frequency is clearer and extended. May be headphone burn in is just a reverse tweak.

Yes it is warm and smooth as long as the fit is right. I play with sound test file, bass starts from 20Hz, climbs up smoothly I can't notice where is the stitching point.

Thanks thread starter sharing this review, I was curious why a triple driver selling @ $100, how does it sound? Ordered one and have been using it 3 months and I am very satisfy with its performance as thread starter has mentioned - smooth as butter. Yes, mid range is very smooth, I love it so...
