Are yuins still the king of earbuds?

Thread Starter 

Or are there any alternative choices yet?

 

PK2s failing again, and i'm not sure if i can find anyone in australia who can fix them (just need to re-solder the cable to a new plug).

 

Wanted to try the blox m2c, but i've been waiting for more than a year and they never seem to have any for sale? What's going on with this company?

 

Can't do any searches on ebay either, the search seems broken...keeps insisting that 0 results have been found.

Hmm, okay. I see on your site that you reviewed the Hisound PAA-1 pro...have you had a chance to review the Hisound Live?

Hisoundaudio is not on the level. Dragon 2 is also high level. Blox is a way above. Grab the ANv3.

Hisound live is not on the level of pk2 despite costing a lot more? That's quite dissapointing...i saw this review and the live was rated way higher than the PK1, so i thought it was better ; http://www.head-fi.org/t/531063/earbud-guide-22-earbuds-compared

 

Blox may be better, but i've been trying for more than a year to get a blox and everytime i email them, they say they are out of stock....and now their site doesn't even have the order page anymore.

 

What's the ANv3 exactly?

Oh I was referring to the paa1 as that's what random has reviewed.

 

ANv was a anniversary model.

HiSound Audio Living is on PK1's level IMO. The latest Sunrise (AS-Feeling 2, AS-Charm 3 and Dragon 2) are excellent as well. Blox of course, and don't forget about Sennheiser MX985.

+1 for Blox.  I have TM7 and M2C.  Want to try ANV3 but they are on backorder.  I also have Yuin PK1 and both TM7 and M2C are better.  I think M2C is the best value of the bunch as it is about 90% sound quality of TM7 (albeit different sound - lively & dynamic versus reference neutral) at about 30% of the price.

I don't understand how to buy from blox though? Like i said, everytime i email them, they are out of stock...are there any online retailers selling them?

 

I got a email response from the Hisound people...they are saying the PAA1-PRO is better than the Yuin PK1 o.O.
