Is it just me or the (Hybrid) EX082 is that good?

I am aware of the multiple versions of the EX082s and audible variance in quality (unfortunately), but the version I have at the moment is just marvelous (the one on the right). After ~30 hours of burn-in (pink), the lows, mids and the highs opened-up and created an enveloping soundstage comparable to the ATH-AD700. It sounds even better with a little help from B and T (inc the EQ). Sadly, the hybrid design doesn't provide adequate isolation, which can cause the sound to become somewhat too airy and baseless. However, in doors, it is just perfect

After trying Customs 2s, CX95, Creative EP630, JVC HA-FXC50, Goldring GX200 and Radiopaq Jazz, EX082 always produced the kind of sound-signature I always adored.


So am I alone on this or are there any others who also love the EX082s?


PS: I'm using the JVC HA-FXC50 as a stop gap measure atm (outdoors). Hopefully in few months, I'll be able to up-grade to the Audeo PFE 112.
