I know Ive taken them both apart plenty of times. The difference lays in the cups, The Denon has a cup that's more shallow and a bit more oval. That causes the Bass in the Denon to be more controlled and tighter. ( think MARKL mod on the 2000's) The Cal's cups are deeper and more round causing the Bass to bloat and have less detail and control. Yeah it's deeper on the Cal but at the expense of losing it's tightness, and with it having more bloat it mixes in to much with everything else. It muddies up everything else, where on the Denon it is less and everything else can do their thing.
Have you seen the video on page 2?

Both made by Fostex, both have the same drivers & both have same baffle plates.
