  Presented with one of the biggest sound chambers I have seen in an earphone, CKS1K style depth and even greater width of sound..Woodie Timbre is simply awesome.  The scope of sound is unbelievably large. The largest I have ever heard in an earphone. These don't sound like earphones they sound like a well realized full sized can in every way..
 
Bass is solid and does have mid and sub bass in the mix for this sound. Absolutely musical and organic in approach...No harsh treble of any type.. These have lushness in the sound signature like no other phone I have heard. I wanted a completely new sounding earphones. I chose well for certain.. The best sounding JVCs I have ever heard by far.

 

 
 
Pro 500's are on the way this afternoon, now this? Argh, I'm in trouble now, lol. At this point my curiosity is piqued since I'm wondering how much better it could be than the FX700(which as everyone here pretty much agrees has some of the best timbre ever). Was eyeing those 1540s as well but now my decision just got harder. More bass or total lush, organic experience. Hmm...

DS, which do you prefer more, the new JVC or your 1540's and what is the difference making sonically? Which sounds more expansive and detailed?

Ds didn't have to convince me much as I knew the goodness of the fx700. Once he said mids aren't recessed it was bought. I'll see it next week hopefully. I'm only curious about how it competes with the H3. The H3 is really ringing my bell (especially when amped).

Has anybody compared TE-05 to DN-1000?

  anyone heard both the MartinLogan Mikros 90 and yamaha HPH200?

I have both.  HPH-200 has a lot more bass quantity than Mikros 90, but doesn't sound as detailed.  This is straight out of laptop.  If amped, from what I've read, it would seem that Mikros 90 is better.
 
I'm still burning in both before I decide which one I like more for my music genres (pop and rock).

You should also do the Mikros bass mods before deciding.

Glad you're getting them. Should be very interesting!

  I need to as well. My M90's may actually be defective, because I'm not being wowed by them anywhere near as much as everyone else seems to be.

Haha, I have the same thought about my M90s, but I'm attributing it to not having burned in for 200 hrs and not amping.
