You just described my Lyra II.I would love a single Be dynamic driver headphone, tuned with some big deep bass, strong not-bright mids, and relaxed, smooth treble. C’mon! Does the market need endless variations on hybrid DD/BA designs? Asking for a friend...

Perhaps. Most of the positive comments about CA IEMs tuning seem to come from (what I consider to be) trebleheads though. To put it another way, my ideal neutral tuning has 3-5dB more bass than strict Harman Target FR.
I’ve read reviews that describe the Lyra 2 as U-shaped. That’s not a headphone I have much interest in investing.

Well then, the plot thickens! Lol. If I find a great deal on a set of the Lyra, I’ll consider your take. But it’s have to be a good deal better than the E5000
Either way, to get this back on track... I think we can agree that there are fewer single DD designs now compared to the proliferating hybrid approach that is all the rage these days. FiiO, with all its resources, could do something unique and affordable in that space.
First thing after I buy the new Fiio DAP is to test it under water like the promotional picture.

Please do, and report back!First thing after I buy the new Fiio DAP is to test it under water like the promotional picture.
Let's find out together on March 16th thenLooks like a new X7/Q5 module with 2.5mm/4.4mm bal output. Or is that a new DAP altogether?

Good suggestion, lol.for portable hifi music device, may we see a fiio hires dap with cellphone capabilities? it would make a lot of people carry 1 less device around.

based on the clues and my elite detective skills, I expect a laser cat with wireless charging, a claymore with a blade of beryllium, and water proof Pringles. don't get tricked into thinking about DAP, amp, DAC, BT receiver and IEM. that's an obvious trap. we have to be one step ahead of their mind games.
Looking forward for the new DAP.. in this weekend....

Waterproof Pringles? That's a game changer. Never again will I have to worry about soggy pringles.
