My thoughts are from A/B listening both ways (C710 -> IE8 -> C710 for example). That is why I started the veiled IE8 thread, I was wondering if there was something wrong with them. Did I burn them out (vs. burn in), ha ha? Because I do remember thinking the IE8 sounded absolutely fantastic with great detail (albeit still not as clear as the W3, but on par with the PFE) and no veil.
I guess my ears will tell me when my replacement comes, and I hope I get the IE8 magic back!
