I haven't read this whole thread, what is the consensus right now, if you already own a L300/500/700 are these worth picking up?
Yes, if you EQ them. But that's also true for the Lambdas.
These are lighter, way more comfortable, and they have a more laid back sound in the mids with better bass. With some EQ to tame the highs and 1-2k they'll have a warmer sound that's better for casual, laid-back listening. The Lambdas are more forward and engaging but the bass is worse.
I've been using the X1 non-stop as an all-around headphone for gaming, youtube, etc, with some music in between, and it's been great.
Have there been any more channel balance issues with the new batches?
