  I want to Answer please 

I'm going to buy today

 
I haven't tried any of them.
Maybe you need to do research by yourself.
But if i go for a blind buy, maybe i will choose the E5.

It's fulfilled by Amazon so it falls under their Prime shipping. If you have any issues you're protected by their return policy, so you are safe. Price wise, I have seen it on the 'zon for slightly under 500, but it varies. You should probably take these questions to the Z7 thread btw.

i found interesting products I've never seen before 

XDUOO XD-05

Is it good ? better than e5 ?

 

[Drizz1e]

Well, I ended up having to tilt the headband forward as possible and now my X2s are pretty comfortable. Kind of weird but it works.

 

[Land-O-The-Free]

I am surprised at how much clamping force there is on these...

 

[ShreyasMax]

I know mate.

I recently bought Mojo, bought and sold iBasso DX80 and HE-400s.

This hobby just always makes you stretch a little bit further than your wallet likes.

 

Say, may I ask why you bought and sold the DX80? Just curious, as that was on my radar for my next DAP upgrade. And how does the Mojo sound with the Fidelios, as compared to the DX80?

Thanks

Got my X2 today:

 
Not bad... not bad at all. Build quality seems very nice and they're pretty comfortable too. Bass goes way beyond what I though was possible with open-backed dynamic cans; It goes very deep, yet remains tight and controlled. Straight out of the box the mids are a little more recessed than I'm used to and I'm not completely blown away by the detail retrieval either. But considering that my daily driver is the $1600+ K10 CIEM, I'm very happy with having spent $215 on these

Just stretch the headband until it has the right amount of clamp.

I was using X3II before I bought DX80, but I mainly used its line out only to feed my desktop amp. Hardly ever used it as a portable DAP only from headphones out. So I bought DX80 to upgrade, and I liked it very much as a DAP from headphone out. It does have a nice sound, (much better than Fiio X3II imo) But as you see, I hardly ever used it for that purpose (hp out). And then I bought Mojo, and realized the sound quality from laptop with a quality usb cable sounds just as good or even better with Mojo, than using DX80's digital out. So at home I didn't need a DAP anymore, and Mojo is also very portable, so if 4-5 times a year I travel, I can use my phone as a transfer instead of a separate and (relatively) expensive DAP.
(I also have to add, there are slight differences in sound, depending on the source you use with Mojo. Don't ask me how it is possible, but many people reported this in Mojo thread. With DX80 I found the highs a bit sharp, piercing and fatiguing after a while (not from hp out, only the digital out). From laptop and android feeding Mojo the sound is much smoother.)

To answer your second question, DX80 does a great job with X2s from headphone out. Really impressive from a DAP (much better than X3IIs hp out).
But Mojo is still another level. More space, more details, overall smoother and much more natural sound. Also feels more balanced. To me it was worth to buy a Mojo for £345 and sell my DX80 for £245. But it depends on your listening habits.

Nice. I have a related question - I bought a race car but it makes some engine noise when I run it. How can I stop that?
