No need. You might hate me once you hear them on open package. In fact I fully expect some of the guys to be pissed. The finger pointing with. YOU GOT ME TO BUY THIS JUNK? And other expletives happening. 
 
Just one is all you need. Besides, just because ClieOS and myself are making some lofty claim about how good they are doesn't mean everyone is gonna like em. Some may some may not. There is always someone that hates something about a sound..Be it a $7.11 cheapo or a 2G one. I would try them out when they are good n ready for your ears and you guys make the call.
 
These get the golden nuts from me ya'll. Look forward to everyone's take on em.

Alright damn it, once again i fell for one for these magical cheapos, have no idea why I am even tempted at this point.
 
If these sucks even after burn in there is gonna be some major nut cracking to be done.

ClieOS mentioned how he feels these are actually an upgrade to the FXD80s. Yea right. What's he smoking right?. I don't know if that is the case but from what I was hearing this morning on my Bravo amp. These are starting to head that direction. What I heard today was a sound that does not happen even on the best cheapo buds I have heard. I am not even going to describe. You have to experience for yourselves. These sound wonderful. Plain and simple. There is no other way to describe it. Magical the sound that is coming out of these earphones. They take to amping like a champ and come out sounding better than any other discovery before them. 

I was just wondering.
Are the MH1Cs any good or as good compared to those FXD80s?
I don't own an amp you see so what ill be listening to is straight out of the iPod.
I'm sure it will be fine, but I just want to know how much more of an upgrade amped to unamped is if you know what I mean.
Otherwise if there is a major difference, an amp of some sort may have to be considered in the future.
 
Also
I don't know if you don't want to but,
You should chuck the MH1C on the title with credit to good ole ClieOS!
Let new comers know about it,
That's how i found out about the FX101!

Thanks

So what was it that made me order everyone on this thread to get them. Hmm lets see. My current favorite earphones be the XBA-3s hands down. By the way if you guys ever see a deal for the XBA-3s. Do get them you will not be disappointed.  And with that being said. The MHC1 I was listening to this morning and I have say. They have a very similar tuning to the XBA-3. I would say they have around 80-85% of the sound of the XBA-3. On some tunes maybe even closer.  ClieOS mentioned that the sound of the MHC1 does not fall too far off even the XBA-4s. I am hoping ericp can help and lend us his ears for this comparo. For the most part I think he is right. I am finally hearing why he brought these to the attention of us headfiers. These are a discovery of epic proportions. These cheapo $20 earphones make the MP8320 a weak find in comparison. No kidding..The sound tuning is a freak of nature.
 
Hard to believe right? Ya I couldn't believe it either. Wait till you guys get them and give them a nice burn in. DO NOT JUDGE ON OPEN PACKAGE!! I warn every single one of you guys. Do listen to hear them in the raw for a good laugh however. You guys are gonna think ClieOS and myself is crazy. No kidding on open package they sound like POO.Before you decide to give these to your pet to chew on.. Burn them in for at least 100 straight hours for the transformation that will surprise every single one of you. Give them a solid chance with burning. I also found that the stock tips actually give the best overall sound on these. I tried a big variety and Sony engineers came up with the perfect tips on these phones. They aren't hybrids but a bit longer in size. Using other ear tips change the sound a bit too much. The tips for the GR07 came the closest to sounding like the stock tips but in the end just using the stock tips turned out to be best for me.  No need to tip roll at all..

I have to thank ClieOS for this one..For all you guys that trusted my recommends. What is really cool about these phones. You guys get to hear why I love my Sony XBA-3s so much..Very exited for every single one of you guys that decided to go along with the craziness that will ensue. Oh it will happen..Just give it some burn in and mix it up with a pinch of magic. We got our cheapo of the year not by a small margin either.

No dude. no way. I'm NOT BUYING IT!!! Even if it was 5 $ with free shipping for that mhc1, I still wouldn't buy it! that's it, I'm outta this thread for good!

LOL!
I don't think its possible to leave this thread,
I'm sure once your in, your in for good!
and plus you have Dsnuts constantly throwing stuff at you!

Well actually due to me not having any money at all (LOL) I have managed to resist all this temptation! (Stupid Money!)

Even so, I think I actually might buy something that was introduced on this thread, apart from my FX101s of course!
 
 
Can't wait to try those R1s though

Fixed!

 
edit: Kinda glad I didn't get the R1s tbh, the FAD III seems to be my cup of tea more and seems to be much more special. Brainwaz stuff is good bang for the buck like superluxes but it just lacks something for me......................

 

[nihontoman]

I'll come back when the new JVC FXZ series are out, just to hear some opinions and such... Although I'm quite thankful to DSnuts - The sonic bliss that the Xb90EX provides is just too good

I think the MHC1 is actually a better deal as they are half the price of the FX31.  They come very close to the FX31 in detail and vocal performance but is only half price. Check out a MHC1.
 

Alright ALRIGHT YOU WIN! I give up! I didn't want them because of the cable but to hell with it. How dare you make me save money??!! But seriusly if they come even close to Xears xe200pro I'll be happy and I'll be damn sure to start using this thread as a bible for earphones. I'll report back when they arrive. Cheers!

The MHC1 improved so much to my ears. They are now actually an upgrade to the FX31. They really do transform to new levels with burn in. That drastic. And no worries guys these don't need amping. Amping just speeds up their true sound as I am still not 100% done with burn in. So I cheated a little. They sound great without an amp. And as an added bonus. They work great on cell phones and come with a mic.

 

[nihontoman]

I just need to know which one's are better than the XB90EX. I made a promise to myself that I'll only buy to upgrade the sound. it looks like the only one that is better than the Xb90Ex in this thread is the XBA -3 and maybe JVC fxd80... am I right?

So, I ordered the MH1C (seems the delivery from the posted seller is quite a bit away, though), burning my S500 (100 hours is a LONG TIME), wowed by the monoprice iem's, misplaced my fxd800 (unplugged them when my wife complained about the burn in on the living room computer, put them somewhere, hope they turn up soon), this is fun, if a bit insane (coming from high end audio, you couldn't do this with the latest/greatest preamp or DAC you read about, because each set you back $2-4,000 for cheap stuff, $80-100,000 for "reference"). If I had the time, I'd do a comparitive review of discovery thread purchases, but I don't even have time to listen to all this stuff, let alone write them up. Anyone out there game?

and just look at those CKS1000 

 

[ericp10]

MH1C is in and is already on burn-in status. I think I'll get five hours burn-in on them them before I leave the office today. I won't listen to it at all until then. Today I have the FXD70 with me.
