Continuing my quest for the best ultraportables,
I reviewed AKG K319 earbud in depth
and rated it in my Earbud buyer's guide.

Thanks for the great reviews Kostalex, always a pleasure to read them. I ended up getting a pair of k319 on sale for 60$ CAD and I don't regret it. From memory, expect for the PK1's huge soundstage, I prefer the k319 all around!

CrossRoads HR1, ZePhone NB01, Sunrise AS-Charm deserve a mentioned in this thread ^^

 

Also there are many fakes of the E888, CM700 and A8, probably more fakes than real ones. sux.

Huh??!   The Treblez iH8-BA$$ (Balanced Armageddon+$$$)  have a treble spike in the upper-mids that becomes fatiguing after 2 hours and 16 seconds.  They also lack a linear treble extension above 20kHz so my dog can listen to my SACD collection.

 

You-wins OK1 are top-tier because they're made out of mass-produced housings and cables so the designers didn't have to think about that part, actually the designers didn't have to think at all so they just got fired.

 

Soon I'm starting my new company called I-Lose, my flagship will be the Ailuzhu KO1 with hand-carved ivory housing and snake-skin filters so you can hear perfect sine waves at 5 HZ.

Can someone in the UK please help me buy ATH-CM700 Bronze?  I will pay for all shipping costs.

Ok I have CM700 on the way!  Plus we confirmed via audio-technica they're the real deal!

I will compare directly to E888, which in my experience has a larger soundstage than all IEM's I've heard, so, this will be a very interesting listen indeed!! ^^
