How would you say these compare in terms of soundstage/detail retrieval/decay to the TSMR-3? I’ve heard the DLC driver can compete with balanced armatures in decay and details, though I’m wondering how the soundstage differs.

Thanks for the reply! One more question: Would you say that the IT01s isolates on a similar level to the IT01 or does one edge out the other?
