DUNU DN-2000J -- More Than Evolution?

[omastic]

Did the smaller dimension result in a better fit compared to the original? One of my complains for the original was that it was kind of tricky to get a good fit in my ears.

  I believe people have been talking about it being more V shaped than the non J. So, less mids.

 
Do you mean those ERJI impressions? Or where have you read other impressions? To me, the DN-2000J sounds less V-shaped than the normal "non-J" version. But it is "colder" in some ways --- definitely brighter up top, so the DN-2000 might come off as more "mid-centric" by comparison. However, both are still V-shaped responses, and unless they changed the tuning by a lot this final time, I feel the DN-2000J is clearly a step forward to the regular DN-2000 on the technical side. I wouldn't call it a "reference response", because that would connote very flat tuning, but it's very good and very, very detailed.

It is very slightly better fitting, but mostly because of the weight distribution in the ear. It torques less, so it'll fall out less. The difference isn't huge, though --- quite subtle.

I only care if the original was slightly smaller and the j-version definitely is so I'll be buying this instantly when its released even with any review or impression

Is it more detailed then the titan1

 

[tomscy2000]

  Is it more detailed then the titan1

Yes, and wider soundstage. You wouldn't think so unless the two were directly compared, though.

 

[mochill]

....wider then the titan1 , that's crazy!!!!!!... How about depth, height,speed,imagery.

Excellent - I'll just have to make sure that I never get the 2000j's to compare directly

 

[mochill]

I know you want it !!!!!!!!

Question: is there any word of the other hybrids (DN-1000, DN-900) getting the "J" treatment? (For that matter, do you think there'd be any point in DUNU doing so?)

 

[Inks]

Actually I think they are!! I think that's the impression I got since the last email I got from them

 

[Fr3dMc]

Have these popped up anywhere yet?

Hooray!

From my last email to a DUNU rep, the first batches of 2000Js will be ready around this week, I think. Review samples will be sent to local reviewers first (which basically means our super-verbose-that-I-could-only-understand-30%-of-what-he's-saying OP tomscy will be one of the first ones to check it out), then probably the bigger, international ones after that.

 

[mdiogofs]

Prepare yourselves! They are coming
