I had read what you wrote before you edited it. And the fact that you edited it made what you said even funnier, haha.
Funnier: i also have the 1060, and fostex variations. Currently battling d7200 vs th600 for my top spot. The denons are tricky little bastards though lolI had read what you wrote before you edited it. And the fact that you edited it made what you said even funnier, haha.

I got a pair of M100's hooked up to my JDS Atom / JDS Dac and they're not too bad! I definitely prefer them to my DT 770's, but I'm definitely too spoiled by my X00 Ebony's to really appreciate them. Going to play with Peace EQ a bit and see how they handle EQ.
Bass is a step up from the DT 770's
Clarity is good
Vocals are slightly recessed, but not bad.
Bass quantity is just "okay", there's some rumble, but it's nothing like I was expecting.
Bass quality is good
Headache from the pads / clamp is quite high
For $232 shipped with the XL pads, I can't say I'm too impressed, but I'm not disappointed either.
I've always heard they they have wild bass, so I wanted to try them out. I personally don't think that they sound like $200 headphones, but the build quality is very good.The V-Moda M100 and M200 Master series are tuned to be reference studio style cans. As such, they will provide you the most realistic flat waveform for mixing and mastering music. However, for fun listening purposes, they will most likely let you down, as they will sound boring in that regard.

Do you have any mods done to the M1060? The mods on mine brought them to life. I sold my M1060 but I kept my similarly modded open back M1060C, they will never be sold. I'll be jamming to those for years.
Had painted HiFiMan HE-560V2 headband with Monolith sticker, 3D printed honeycomb grills, felt "fuzzor" mod on both grill and ear pad sides, foam removed on grill side and replaced with thin speaker grill material, custom made Alcantara ear pads from Vesper Audio.
Setup is a JDS Atom / JDS Dac and the Vmoda's were the M100's, so I guess I'm just picky and need to aim for something a bit higher end. I love that hardware EQ, I wouldn't mind having oneThe V-Moda headphones that have wicked bass, of course when properly AMPED and EQ'D, are the V-Moda LP2 and the V-Moda M100 can's. But the MASTER series are reference can's only, don't bother with them unless your a music mixer or DJ.
I personally have the V-Moda LP2 headphones and I freaking love them! Here is a picture of my cans, with modified head band cover and using Wicked Cushions pads, sitting proud next to my modified S.M.S.L SP200 with the aluminum golden volume knob AMP.
And here is my EQ settings for those who are interested.
