@scottsays Oof, sorry, my bad. But yeah, thanks for the advice. For $40 seems like a no brainer to get an idea of their sound.

If you want to start it's best to get intime unique bass but it's probably only in jp at the moment.
I got sora-2, nagi and miyabi and they are all champs. Never had a bad one before in terms of audio but I don't get kira, go etc2x because they don't have the vibe.

Just got the intime Sho DD---only have listened a few minutes and can tell these are awesome----bold ,rich and powerful. Bass is really punchy and full and the highs are crisp , sharp without being sibilant---obviously need some time to break in but these are the best yet I have from intime. Soundstage is very wide--I love the iem design--these are great fit for me. Most iem's I have serious fit issues but these intime design work perfect for me---probably why I like them so much.

I got the Sho DD since the Miyabi is not yet available in the US. While its too early to form an impression, its already very easy to listen to amd the tone and timbre are very natural.
I am having issues with the stock tips. Can anyone recommend some silocone tips?

Final Audio tips work great with everything I find----and I have also have had great luck with these tips ( do a aliexpress search --see below) even though they are meant for tws they seem too work with iems fairly well too---

Feaulle Latex H370 TWS Eartips​

Sednaearfit and Sednaearfitlight. Never liked the Xelastec as they are such lint, dust and dirt magnets.

@aneep does the Sho DD's box say anything about where it's made? China. Philippines or Japan?

@ThEvil0nE - the package says "Made in Japan"

I have sho dd the head, How are soundstage different between Miyabi and show dd?

Miyabi finally got through US customs after 8 days hold. Also got my 634ears Sarn II cocobolo 3 days ago. It’s going to be a comparison between Miyabi vs Sarn II hybrid ebony/cocobolo vs Sarn II cocobolo.

I have the Miyabi listed for sale. I really wanted to keep it but sound signature isn’t quite for me.

Well I am keeping it and posted my review.

@scottsays , how is the sho dd progressing? I have given mine about 30-40 hrs of burn in. I get the feeling that its going to need a bit more. It seems to be improving slowly but steadily. Getting more clear every day especially the treble and mid-bass area. What are your observations?

Sound is excellent--it is becoming one of my very favorite iems. I also recently got a Hiby RS6 so the combination works very well and really is something special-the detail and resolution is amazing.

Has anyone used the intime earphones with balanced cables? Any recommendations?

First run with stock then with balanced. Never go back.
Depends on your budget

I recently purchased the Fiio Lc-re. It does not fit the Sho DD. I thought all mmcx connectors are the same. Turns out....not really. I am thinking of trying out cables in the 100-250 range.
If anybody has used 4.4mm cables, i would very much appreciate the recommendations.

I don't think you need to spend that much but it's your choice.
The most important thing is probably the source.

@aneep I'm using NiceHck Oalloy (Sale period @45-55$) and CEMA Osprey (discount 10% by chat). Both mmcx accessory are fit on intime sho dd

@aneep Did you order intime sho dd with cable (25000yen) or intime sho dd the head mmcx (13800yen)?
If intime sho dd, it's pentaconn ear connector.
If intime sho dd the head mmcx, it's normal mmcx.

Today i just opened Miyabi, it’s very impressive for Vocal better than sho dd, and dmwv.
