Earbuds Round-Up

[WayTooCrazy]

Just tried it. There was A LOT of hissing... I might just stick with a SE cable... Or the 3.5mm only to dual 3-pin you showed me. Don't want to waste money on another cable though...

Kind of figured you might. I did too, and you were probably picking that up for elsewhere. Do you know how to use a soldering iron? If so... I can show you how to fix it so you don't have to buy anything else.

What about a 3.5mm to a dual 3-pin XLR cable? I bought one from VE Clan (came in the mail today actually). It actually has both 2.5mm and 3.5mm on one end (it was the only 2.5mm option on the site). Just wanted to know if the 3.5mm option is safe.

Have not seen this cable before and thus dooesn't know how it is wired internally.

Patiently waiting for my EB200, Svara L, and Fiio F5 to arrive... then the testing shall begin!

The Svara L has massive Bass, even more than the TY Hi-Z HP-650.

Awesome! Reminds of Vido reviews I've read. Would you say it's a more matured Vido in terms of sound signature and quality?

I have not tried the Vido but all I can say is the BS1 can compete with top earbuds too. Really good earbud imo.

The guy said that his Svara L has a 115 ohm impendence .. Can anyone check yours?

I've been avoiding buying this earbuds for a long time after reading it's polarizing impressions and fitting problems. yesterday i made an accidental purchase by winning an auction

but now I'm glad that i did...i really enjoy the sound

I've always wanted to hear the sounds from Sennheiser MX985, but they're close to impossible to get now. Are there any buds that have similar sound signature and quality? Why doesn't Sennheiser make more??? Same with the Blox TM7. I want to hear those legendary sounds!

@chinmie : great picture !


I'm falling in love with my new TY Hi-Z HP-400se... Great earbuds for price !

The finishes are excellent: the jack is very solid, the cable is just beautiful and the overall look is incredible! Fantastic job done by TY Hi-Z.

Hi Friends,

My Vido earbuds broken (the one with Mic). Broken in the sense that both speakers are still working but right speaker sound is not fine. I can hear disturbance in sound. Something like when you don't get proper radio signal and hear sound with some disturbances.

I guess PowerAmp might be responsible for this as well as all my previous buds are broken and this one is having issue. I guess a user name @Ira Delphic something is using PowerAmp. Did he face same issue?

I also tried to see if SHE3800 is still having issue. It works sometime if I hold the cable and don't move at all :| I guess SHE3800 is much better than Vido. The bass is very deep and have lots of Boominess which is not there in Vido. It is much more comfortable than Vido or any other buds I used so far. Now I have an option to go for its Mic version (can anyone pls share link to buy that but cheaper price as without mic is just $3.9 so with mic at $12.99 does not make sense). 2nd option is to go for similar soundstage and boominess bud but with 64 or even more Ohms. So far, nothing happened to Monk+ except mic not working (I am not using it also regularly though).

Last option is to change the cable of current SHE3800 with mic one but I don't know how to do that so cannot do.

Pls suggest if I should take another chance and buy SHE3800 with Mic or buy something else with Mic which has similar sound like 3800 (little more warmness is good).

Regards,
Akash

Just had a good deal for a MX985. Bought it used but still very much in good condition:

Spoiler: MX985 + Rose Mojito

I'm still listening to them thoroughly, but so far I still prefer my Rose Mojito than the MX985. I use double foams on my Mojito (thin+thick) and it's sub/bass is unbelievable for earbuds. MX985's amount of bass is nowhere near Mojito's but MX895's is still very tight and refined, no undesirable "leaks" to the mids whatsoever, so I guess that's what ~real audiophiles~ want?

The vocals on the MX985's though. Man, best vocals I ever listened to. Soundstage is, however, narrower on MX985 compared to Mojito's.

Can't say yet which one has the better treble reproduction between both, still need to listen more.

@DBaldock9 : Do you recieve your Blur 魔音 yet?

No. When I contacted Wong Kuan Wae, he was just about to leave on a trip. I'm not sure if he's back, and building earbuds, yet.
Even when he's finished building them, I expect it will take an additional few days, for shipping via Singapore Post Registered Airmail.
