    Then wait for the IE1000 because that extra zero adds value. Just hope some new developments trickle down to their more affordable range.

    Gonna go out on a limb: from measurements and from hearing the IE 500, I predict the tonal balance of these will sound really wonky. IE 500 had missing upper mids-lower treble and high mid-treble; it looks like these have the same hole in the upper mids followed by a sharp rise into an overcooked lower treble.

    I'm afraid this will be like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown... yet again.
