Has anybody tried the e17 with the Beyerdynamic dt1350?

Should I get the CmoyBB now or just wait for the E17 to get in stock at miccastore? The more I read about the CmoyBB the more I lose patience for the E17 which I want really badly too.
Anyone have any comparison between the two also?

i have the dt990/600...although there similar i absolutely love my dt990 with my e9+e17 so i would imagine it would be similar for the dt880.
do you find the e17 lacking by itself? if so, by how much?

Just did a 10 minute test with and without the e9 with a few songs and what i noticed is that with the e9 the mids seem a bit recessed (i don't really have a problem with that since i like the feeling of a larger sound stage) HOWEVER the overall sound is more balanced. Now just the e17 alone plugged in the mids were obviously more forward, almost sounding very similar to my grado sr60s. On the downside it did feel a bit more harsh and didn't sound as balanced with the e9 but given that the e17 settings can be tinkered with you can probably tone the treble down a bit. To sum it up and give you an answer...i can't say the e17 is really lacking by itself but more of a personal preference kind of thing. I think the e17 can drive the dt990 to a decent level but not to it's full potential and i would much prefer to use the e9 along with the e17 with lo bypass. Hope that answers your question.
Given that you have the DT880 i'm not sure how it would sound with the e17 as i've never heard the DT880 so my experience will be quite different than yours since the DT990 are known to be bright.
