There are a few impressions on the previous page. I'd say it is quite neutral (with a hint of warmth).
 
In this review Scott describes the sound as "warm": http://parttimeaudiophile.com/2014/03/28/geek-out-1000/

Pity.  I got no email... and I was actively communicating with Manny.  I even asked about the upgrade email.
 
Anyhow, glad that I am going to receive something.

 
Good news is that they confirmed on the forum that the survey is ready to go out this week. I'd still keep in touch with Manny to be safe, but the survey should let you confirm colors and what not as well.

Open a ticket in their system asking about yours.  That's what it took for me.

That's too late, I think.  Mine is shipped.  I am okay with any color though.

Oh they've already started shipping the Indiegogo bundle units? Huzzah. Hopefully I'll get notification before too long myself.

@walfredo were you an IGG bundle backer? I didn't think they were shipping any of those yet...

Yes. 
 
I opened a ticket and they shipped.  According to USPS, I should receive it tomorrow (Monday).  Looking forward to it...

Agreed. I'd love to start seeing more reviews, and of course to get my own units in hand.

Got it!!  The sent a silver one.
 
Initial impressions:  Spacious, detailed, very neutral.  Runs really hot.  It makes noise when handling it, but is very quite when left alone.
 
It appears to match the W1000X better than the Sony MA900.  I guess that's because the Sony MA900 is also very neutral.  The W1000X adds a bit of warmth to it.
 
I think it a keeper!

Give it a week or two of playtime and check back with the MA900s. 
It warms up and fills out a bit. It can be deceiving out of the box as it has good prat and nothing that really shouts out that it needs break-in time but it really improves on already good.
