Well, I'm here if they need me to shed some light on the 900!

 

 
I'd definitely be interested in hearing what you think of the 900.
 
Also, I potentially made a liar of myself. It sounds like the 900 and 1001 will be coming my way. Very excited to hear how they compare to the 1200EX.

I'm glad you narrowed it down to "no shure". Now, there are only 350 choices to recommend

 
You gotta be more specific, bud.  What is your source (dap, smartphone, dac/amp, etc), what type of music are you listening to, what is your preferred sound signature, do you wear glasses (for wire up/down), do you need in-line remote for smartphone, etc.  And even with all these questions answered, there going to be hundreds of choices to recommend, so many will probably reply with their own favorite.

Ah I up or down doesn't matter and any balanced armature set up will do on more of the bright side.  I currently have a really bright pair in the ath im02. My source will be my phone for the most part.  Range would be 200-250 thanks again!

Still use my On1's, really like them, hope I get to hear the On2 at some point.

 
Same here.  I love my On1.   On2 might be another great set.

Well for $100 more and minus 1 DD but add 5 more BA, I would hope its better than the SW3

Would love to hear some more impressions, especially in comparison to the FLC8s if you have heard those.

Sorry for my bad english. These phones worh every penny they are very clear-high resolution, huge and holographic soundstage, strong bass, fantastic mids and really nice extended treble can't fault anything these are my favourite phones by far. I have the fischer amps rhapsody and the music maker showkwave iii but won't get much use after this purchase I think that the dc8 play in other league. They are more mid centric (4 mid drivers) than the others and the bass is quite strong but treble is very extended too.
 
Isolation is pretty good and the construction  seems solid and nice.
 
I was going to buy the dz9 too but not for now I'm super happy with this purchase.

Awesome. Does the printed wood finish look low quality or pixelated at all? It's hard to tell from their pics online. From what I'm reading there's actually 4 woofers, 2 tweeters, and 2 large range for mids I'm assuming. The Sonion 33AJ is a dual woofer(the seller confirmed they used the sealed variety). The TWFK 30017 is a woofer/tweeter combo. The 31116 seems to be a 2 driver/1 nozzle setup.
 
How's the bass in particular? Any direct comparisons with the shockwave iii?

 

[Kurdt-bada]

The printed wood looks nice no worries. The bass is awesome they have plenty of high quality bass the shockwave is no shy in bass but the dc8 have more mid bass and more impact everywhere, you don't need an amp to bring the bass with the dc8 so for me dc8 is better.

Whomever designed that shell is getting their money's worth, haha. From what I can tell, they share the same curves as the TFZ Series 1/3/5 and KZ ED12/ZST. Not sure if it's identical, but it looks pretty close.

It's certainly different.
