TY Hi-Z continues to confuse us all: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/TY-Hi-Z-Earbud-HP150-150ohm-HP320-320ohm-HP400-400ohm-HP400s-400ohm-HiFi-Earbuds/32727454828.html
"320M"... a different plug, but what does M mean lol

Actually they have it for quite some time. And I happened to order one last week. Hp320M. I ordered it because it's the most look like seahf v1 which a friend described as most zen 1 like sound. Well he actually said that zen1 only marginally better that seahf 320 v1

I don´t think that sound description is accurate. The Zen 1 is a bass monster while the Seahf V1 clearly isn´t, so......

Tried the TY2 from mojo, feels cheap sounds cheap. Recessed midrange, artificial treble, poor dynamics and below average resolution. Seriously, earphones like RX1 and cygnus have much better drivers.

well I'm not sure either since I've never heard them. I'll share the impression on Hp320M later when I got them.

How do you plan to drive it? Would appreciate if you could do some testing with lower-powered sources. I can see myself getting either HP150 or HP320/HP320M as I am pretty impressed with HP32 for what it is. I am just hoping that HP320/HP320M is easier than expected to drive, or else the HP150 will be a less hassle (ie: no external amp needed) choice for me.

J cord and they sound terrible.

Oh btw I bought two and one is straight and the other is J cord.

Do they need burn in?

The more terrible they sound at the beginning, the better they will sound after burn-in.
At least that's what I hope whenever I hear a "disgusting" earphone OOTB 
Send it for some "training" and try it a day or 2 later.

I opened the shell to see the driver inside and found out what causes the hollow sound. I think the foam behind the driver is too thin not like the ones on the Monk/Monk+. I'll try to replace the foam when I get home. This needs some serious modding I guess.

I have a feeling that these have some potential.

Don't forget to also post your "earbud hack" photos over on the new thread, DIY earbuds, as well.

Sure, I will mate.

@ozkan you can also try to only have 2 vent holes open on each earbud, use some tape and see what you think about it.

Mate I have Blutac for that purposes and it definitely works. Will let you know about each process of the mod. For now Monk is way better than the Philips SHE3800.

Just unpacked the Hi-Z 32 (left angle plug), and given my current micro setup (Sansa Clip+ to Brainwavz AP001) this $5 earbud can deliver a quite enjoyable and fun-oriented sound.  For an earbud, vs similarly priced earbuds, I think the bass quality & quantity is pretty amazing.  The same way I think the Monk makes for a great starter vocalist earbud, I am really impressed with this out of the box for it's fun signature.  Now I just have to buy a case for this as it deserves protection.

So do we know anything about them besides that the build quality needs to be improved? Anyone has them yet?

Anyone tried Audio-Technica ATH-C770 on ebay for 10 bucks? Fake? Any good?
