That's a shame, the purple is nice. Actually, I'd better go back tomorrow in case they sell out of the other colours...- Willber

Silver (space grey!), rose gold and purple for me. I'll probably get the other three. Good recommendation, I credited you a few pages back.- Willber

Yes, the Mixx Tribute. About the same size as the Qian39/Monk Lite but much better sounding than both. £4 in Asda over here, I got three of them. My current favourites.- Willber

Earbuds Round-Up
Fairly neutral signature with wide soundstage and decent clarity. Very good for vocals and acoustic music. I like it a lot (I have 5!) - it is my favourite of all my metal buds which cost 5x more. Comfortable, well built and great value for money, and you can get it very cheaply if you don't...- Willber

I too find it very comfortable but haven't seen it used by any other manufacturer. It does look similar to the HE 150PRO, though: https://penonaudio.com/earphones/earbuds/he-150pro.html- Willber

Thanks for checking. I find the smaller & shallower SR2 more comfortable.- Willber

Can you please check those two side by side? I found that my B40 shell is slightly bigger than my SR2. In fact it is bigger than all of my 'PK' buds. Please confirm I'm not going mad!'- Willber

When you consider all the variables involved in using earphones (see below, I'm sure there are others) it is isn't realistic to assume you are hearing exactly the "work of the sound engineer": Source file/physical medium DAC Amplifier Cable Shell Driver Manufacturer's tuning Foam Fit All of...- Willber

Yes, that is what attracted me. But that website is being a bit cheeky. It lists prices in S$ but when I go to checkout it uses the same numbers in £, which is about double the value! I'll give them a miss for now.- Willber

Earbuds Round-Up
After a few hours (about 20) you should find the E808+ to have a very full sound, bassy with a wide but shallow soundstage. Not great in detail but decent mids and highs. I also find the asymmetrical shape very comfortable, it's a shame the shell is not more widely used. (I use foams, usually...- Willber
