I used to think the W100's were something special. They still are great headphones, but once i got the L3k and the W11JPN, my perspective changed. Let's just say the W100's lacked a certain character that the others had.
Even though i really like the JPN, ill still say the L3k is my favorite. It's too bad i couldn't afford to keep them..otherwise, they would be my only headphone to last me for a long time. But since the L3k's are more expensive than the JPN's, i figured i'd just try and snag a pair of JPN's, since they have a similar sound tonally. The L3k's have better detail, bass, ect..but the JPN is something special. The highs and mids are very sweet and pleasant sounding..it's a very fun, musical headphone. The one thing i wished the W11JPN had is the fowardness of the L3k's..that's the thing i miss most about them..the intimacy was amazing. Hopefully, ill buy the L3k's again, and own a JPN as well sometime in the future..then id be set
Congrats Purk, you got a sweet deal on those JPN's..i bet you'll enjoy them this time around.
