That's great to hear. Impressions so far? Particularly compared to HE-6.

They honestly do not stack up to the HE-6. The comfort is better (personally a bit too large/long for me actually) and the amp requirements are very low, but resolution isn't quite there. It has more bass oomph like the 400 series which gives it an immediate visceral feel though.
 
I need to whip up a balanced cable to try these out.
 
I think there's good modding potential here, and I the enclosure is resonating which is taking away from the resolution and I can see a couple ways to address this... but I can't risk anything with the loaner pair here.

D'oh! So I just spent all this time whipping up an XLR4 to 2xTRS adapter for the HE-X, only to realize afterwards that the HE-X cups need a 2.5mm plug, not 3.5mm.

That sucks - how long do you have the HE-X for? Maybe i can whip one up so i can take fancy pictures of it with my cables
