VSD1's are originally intended for straight down wear, with option to wear around ear but L/R channels are swapped.Were you referring to VSD3's? Those are originally intended for around ear.

Any specific reason for not choosing over the ear? Coz vsd3/S is an wonderful IEM for its price and sound and you can get used to it easily if you feel over the ear is un-comfortable....

This was asked a day ago. I replied to this on the previous page.
The VSD1/S is not over the ear... I prefer it to the Piston but they have different signatures. Piston is significantly warmer and bassier.

How is the RHA-750 compared to the JVC FXT90 and the Yamaha EPH-100 in mids? I know they are similar in sound as far as the bass being the focal point but, I want something full-bodied with good mids that don't get lost in the background.
Leaning towards the RHA-750 because of the build quality, remote, and excellent customer support.

Thanks for your help
I prefer to wear iem the "normal" way
Unless the quality indeed justify paying the extra money and possible comfort issues
The price of vsd1/s is double of the priston price on ebay and vsd3/s costs some bucks more.
Does the priston and vsd1/s are equal in quality and the difference is only depends on taste?

How would you compare the DUNU 1000/ 2000 to the Future Sonic Atrios MG7?
looking for an upgrade from the atrios, ,mainly a more flatter/neutral sound with a strong sub bass presence
same with the Philips Fidelio s1/s2?

I would skip the MA750 if you're concerned primarily about mids - the FXT90 and EPH-100 both have more prominent and capable midranges. The MA750 has the least midrange prominence and the most veiling of the three.
The Piston and VSD1 have different sound signatures, yes. Performance-wise they're not too different so if you don't much care about tuning specifics and want to save a few bucks, the Pistons will work for you.
The HD25s and Momentums don't exactly have the same sound signature so it's hard to say, but the Pistons should certainly be fine for what they cost.
They are both brighter than the Atrios by a good margin. Bass is not as dominant, but still punchy. Clarity is better.
If you want a reference earphone with strong subbass the DN-1000 is the one I would get... the DN-2000 has less low end. Ditto on the S1/S2 - they are neutral, but far from heavy on bass/sub-bass.

fwiw - The INEARPEACE tips seem to work pretty well with the RE-400. I was having a difficult time finding tips for the RE-400 that were comfortable and produced a sound I was happy with.
I'm still in the process of burning in my INEARPEACE.

In the sub-$150 bracket I would go GR07 Bass Edition for HD25 and EPH-100 for Momentum
Hi joker. Could you please help me to choose a good pair of iem? I listen most of the times to techno, Goa and electronic world music. So electronic mainly.
https://soundcloud.com/alter-ego-amsterdam/satori-in-between-worlds-alter for example.
I already have some nice iems like mh1 and Fischer Audio Consonance. I don't listen to mh1 much though because of the horrible fit. It plops out of my ear all the time (well the fit is actually ok, but that cable makes it horrible to wear when I am moving).
How is the MA750 for electronic music? or maybe the custom Arts music One? Music one is pretty expensive in comparison to the ma750 and i dont know if it's worth the price difference. If you have another idea that would be very welcome. Price range around 130 dollars. By the way...I like a bit more Bassy iems probably with a good kick.
And could you maybe review some more Xears maybe? the XPA2Pro and the XWH700Pro seem like a steal with the KLANGFUZZIS promo. (from 150 euro's to 35 euro's).
