Could be a mega reach and different sound sigs-    but how is the Z5 vs the Dunu DN2000 (non - J version)?   My DN2000s have held me down for the past 2 years.

Its almost been a year since I bought these IEMs. These literally ended my IEM search for good and are still holding up strong to this day. Ultimately consolidated to a DiyModded-CF Flash ipod 4g w.rock box, jds c5 amp and the DN-2000s (with JVC Spiral Dot Tips). Minimal leakage, minimal...

Just got these - AMAZING phones. However dorky looking, I suppose theres a similar phone with the same sound sig with a more portable friendly/better look? 

I use the spiral dots on my DN2000 

Is anyone selling a spare pair of those Spiral Dot tips, sized Medium?    Trying to avoid paying $40 for tips... 

Picked this up.   Will be seeing how it fares vs the JDS Labs C5 + my Dunu DN200s  .   That 3d effect is intriguing. Is it a crossfeed tweak that can be replicated using fubar or Rockbox?

Got mine today.   Sound is spacious, very good. What will change with burn in? Additionally, I can't get a good seal with these.. unless they're meant to be shallow inserted.

How are these vs the JVC-FX850 - looks like they appreciated in price over the past couple of months...

That Aune T1 looks pretty interesting.. Any comparisons to the JDS Labs C5 or the C&C BH?

  Why you sellin em? Is the JVC that much better ? 

Definitely interested in those spiral dot tips. Does anyone have spare large and medium ones for sale?

Nice! Awaiting your FX850 vs DN2k impressions :smile::headphones::space_invader:

Anyone wanna trade for my DN2k?    Either that or awaiting comparisons...

How much do the sound leak on these? (Dynamic driver + shallow insert = Pretty loud?)

Hows the sound leakage/isolation on these?   Normally dynamic drivers would leak a bit of sound more vs BAs/Hybrids..

  I pre-ordered the H300s and heard it and to my tastes, the DN2K is the better IEM. I still stand firm that "the H300s win in bass, clarity, detail retrieval and treble extension". The H300 clarity is pretty insane to my ears, which help in the detail retrieval and treble extension. The bass...

So what ring/tip combos are you guys using?   I'm using the black silicons, red ring and wings. 

Does anyone have a recommendation on which is the best pairing of the DN2Ks with either the FiiO X5 or the iBasso DX90?   Pretty much completely done consolidating my gear... now trying to change my diymod+amp stack into something more portable.. (though I love the C5 bass boost)

  used JDS Labs C5= $110 used ipod + diymodding from a fellow member = $150 Silver Interconnect = $30     $290 total vs $350+ for the X5?   Don't get me wrong, I definitely would like to "side-grade" into a single DAP like the X5 or the DX90. Consolidating into one player instead of a...

Thanks for the comparison-   I really wonder if DAP + Amp can really be replaced with just DAP. I did see that the X5 was more of a sidegrade to the diymod + amp comboes. I was wondering if the DX90 was more of the same as well. 

No one else has theirs yet?    By the way, the earphone wings definitely help give a better seal and bit more comfort. I haven't tried customs yet, but I'd figure the feeling would be close.

Thanks-   Are there things the 1st generation C5 does better than the C5D or vice versa? Or its ultimately the same?

Nice- so ultimately both c5d and the (new) c5 would sound similar? I say (new) C5 as I had the first generation 2.2 output impedance one with only one bass switch. I sent my C5 to JDS labs for them to add the stepped bass to it. I'm very curious on what the new C5 would sound with my dunu...

So the sound quality difference between the C5D and the C5 is more due to the lower output impedance of the C5D vs the C5?   Is the bass boost still about the same between the two?

How is the bass in the DX90?   I think i've gotten used to using my JDS Labs C5 bass boost a bit too much. Great sound but i want to move away from using a dap + amp stack.
