Hello all, thanks for the replies everybody, have decided to go with the xcape v2, i just seem pulled towards it after seeing plenty of threads about it, both here at head-fi and other sites.
 
Once i get them, i will give youa ll my experience with them, also, this whole burn-in thing, is there a wrong way to do it????

I burn-in by putting the iPod on "Shuffle All" and let it play through the IEM around the clock for X days. Use volume at or a bit higher than comfortable listening. If the escaping sound is bothersome, put them in the supplied hard case with the plug sticking out while doing this.
 
Definitely noticed changes from burn-in with my dynamic IEMs. Took longer to stabilize the SQ on the Xcapes (at least 4 days = 100 hours) than other dynamics in my limited IEM experience, but definitely made an improvement. (I regularly compared them to my favorite Fischer DBA-02's.)
