Yeah I didn't own them at the same time but they sound pretty different. Fidelio L2 isn't really better in anything except tonality. X2 is just too bassy/u-shaped. L2 is brighter, more mids, which just sounds more natural.Always good to have a different perspective, @peter123
I've not heard the Meze 99C, although honestly, from the reviews I've read, I suspect I might rather like them a lot.
To be clear, nothing I've read makes me think the L2 sounds like the X2, just that it also seems, at least from some accounts, to have that Fidelio magic.
@peter123 have you ever heard the on-ear Fidelio M1 MKII?
I hated the L1, as they were like ridiculously dark, and they clamped WAY too hard.
