They run very well out of my J3, MUCH easier to drive than the original Dx150.  Not sure if these are an ex150 v2 or not, but they are definitely much easier to drive. 25/40 volume on my J3 is a normal listening level, 30+ is too loud.

Interesting.... I will sure keep my eye out for them. I wonder how much they will cost.

 

In the mean time, I ordered a pair of Sunrise AS-Charm. Should have them by end of this week and up date accordingly.

 

Also I sent my M2Cs back to Blox for repair. I will be interesting to see what happened to them.

Close call, but I am leaning towards yes.  More usage is needed to be sure.  It is definitely more fun to use, its more colored where as the Blox is closer to neutral with slight coloration.

Superior Staging, more dynamic, air and spacious but a small degree.  Brighter in the upper mids and highs like the Dunu but not as harsh, very nice low end, smooth and undistorted.  Still not as much as the MX880 or 980 but retains great clarity in the lows with some kick.  

 

All of Hisounds gear is aimed for listeners like me who enjoy large airy stages.  I am eager to hear Blox's new prototype, I was just speaking to Woo at Blox today as well as Jack at Hisound, definitely competition for each other.  ( The Paa1 and M2C ).  Both are better than the new Dunu.

Hisound has a pro version of this that I've yet to hear as well as the Rocoo Studio.  This is the standard Paa1 in white next to the new Dunu.  They are listed on the website so I am assuming yes they are available.  Mine does not have the logo on the side, so im not 100% on the model, but its the same shape as the PAA1

On Ebay, you can buy the PAA-1 for $19 (excluding shipping), the PAA-1 Pro for $49 (excluding shipping), the Live for $99 (excluding shipping) and the Living for $149 (excluding shipping).

 

The PAA-1 looks like a real bargain!

Indeed! They outperform the M2C and are not even the Pro version :P    I have not heard the Pro or the Living and right now I am speechless that they are only 19$, I will edit the thread to reflect the real price!  I honestly would have placed it at the same price as the pro at $50....but $19?  Thats nuts.

There's one seller who sells Hisoundaudio products. He's got a feedback of over 3700 and 100% is positive, so I think the seller can be trusted.

 

Here's the white PAA-1: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hisoundaudio-PAA-1-Earbuds-HiFi-Grade-Earphones-White-color-/380383751882?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item5890a36eca

Nowadays I'm more interested in high end earbuds, but the PAA-1 are still interesting since they are so cheap.

So the PAA-1s are warm sounding?  So it's similar to the 328R but with better soundstaging?
