[Hibo]

I'm the one tell bigbarginonline about the latest and greatest iem that everyone wants

 
Did you tell bigbarginonline about the Don scorpio headphones, too?

So I guess nobody else got Dolphin's yet?  Curious to hear other opinions about it.  At the current moment, these are my FAVORITE headphones.  And if these sound that good, I can't even imagine how much better Drama is going to be.

Why would they be better?

Senmai SM-HD900
 
Senmai is another brand unknown to us in the US, but they put out some very good quality sets. I just got the Senmai SM-HD900 in today, and I'm liking it the best over all the other Senmai models I tried, which were also pretty good (SM-HD800 (vocals, light bass), SM-HP8 (DJ, bass).
 

 

 
Right out of the box, I don't find anything recessed. Mids are actually pushed forward a bit, but the bass is still nicely present. Treble is well extended, and there is no noticeable bass bleed. Everything is clear. If the mids even out a bit, these could be a killer set.
 
Comes with 2 cables, a coiled cable, and a separate cable with remote and mic for mobile use.
 
The box says active noise cancellation, but there are no batteries? Unless there is some magic tech going on, I doubt these are truly active. They do block out noise extremely well however.
 
$70... so far the Martin Logan Mikros 90 closeout is beating these on value, but these are very, very good right out of the box. Going to update after more burn in.

The Dolphin may actually be the better headphone, as descriptions make it seem more geared to us neutral, audiophile types. Descriptions for the Drama say it leans more toward being bass heavy.
 
I have both on the way, so I'll let you know when they arrive.

The black tips do warm up the sound slightly, I find. Not quite as much as Complys, but enough to notice.
