Earbuds Round-Up

Red Demon has arrived!
Haven't doing much AB-ing it with Tomahawks but what I can say for sure in my early impression is the lows, highs and details is better than Tomahawk. The vocals is as forward as Tomahawk in my hearing.
The builder said that I have to do a burn in for it, but it doesn't need that to sound better than Tomahawk

I only ask for compliment for Tomahawk yet what I get is a great step-up upgrade. Really happy with this purchase. Thank you for sir Vapman, Joy Boy and Golov for deceiving me in a good way

Finally I have found my all-rounder queen

I wanted to get a 2nd set of remax as they're such good exercise earbuds... partly due to how they absolutely do NOT care about how you have them seated in your ears! I can move them all around and the sound doesn't change one bit.
 
Anyway I found the cheaper link golov originally found for me and where I got mine from, they shipped extremely quickly and i was happy with buying from this store, so i will be buying my 2nd set of remax from them.
 
No real need for a 2nd set unless i lose/break these, if I see something else interesting with a mic I will pick it up, but this has a really nice mic and good sound too

Friend, do you think If I overall like Tomahawk's sound signature (soundstage, details, separation, forwarded vocals), but I want more pure bass and not sharp top, I should go to Red Demon or consider the Shozy Cygnus or maybe Edimun V2/V3?

The Red Demon has less bass than the stock H180 and I have heard neither Edimun V2 or V3 so i can't compare there.
 
H180 and SeaHf 400ohm have the best pure sub & mid bass of any earbud I've heard to date. Those two you can really EQ the heck out of and push some serious power to them.

Haven't heard Edimun V2/V3 or Shozy Cygnus, sorry.
But I can say that Red Demon is overall better than Tomahawk. Red Demon have warmer and rounder lows, reach deeper while still being really controlled and does not bloat to other freq, have more detail and more controlled highs. Bass speed is awesome and I can hear the warm of wood from acoustic guitar with Red Demon. All IMHO

Bass is not priority, I don't like when dominates over other bands, but in Tomahawk's is it bit too little, not punching.

Vocals are forwarded in Red Demon as in Tomahawk? I really like this element of signature, for opposites, Monk + are very retracted and listening to them, I feel as if I held my head in the box :wink:

Vocals are more like Tomahawk's than Monk's on Red Demon, definitely. More balanced & natural sounding than Tomahawk, has more energy and life to it too. Less sibilant treble.

from my less than 2 hours of AB-ing, yes they are definitely not a laid back vocal. Will do more intense AB-ing after I cooked the Red Demon well

  that... your jack have that kind of gear-like part and seemed to be silver(?)
while mine have no gear-like part and gold in color, this is tick my curiosity... this is dangerous for a curious cat like me, will the sound be different?


I realized my picture was pretty awful.
 
I hope this makes it a bit clearer.
 
I'll check your post again and see but I doubt it would have any change on sound quality...  unless yours is a gold plug, then we probably have different 3.5mm connectors, but again, doubt that changes anything in the sound quality.
 
We probably have slightly different 3.5mm connectors wrapped in the same branded heatshrink. I wouldn't sweat it though, any nice connector will sound the same, it's all in the cable.
 

 
no more unplugging the Red Demon for the rest of the night!
