Just so you know for the future reference, since you put together the only available review of these IEMs, you should have contacted them directly to ask for review samples of everything they have to offer

Liked the Dunu 1K, but never found it to fit great for me. The A83 are also pretty nice sounding headphones, pretty strong recommendation!

At one point like a week and a half ago I was trying to decide between the 2000J and the R2A. Ended up going with the R2As since I could get them at their KS price plus I assumed I'd get an obviously better fit with them. I'm still intrigued by the Dunus, though.

I'll probably end up getting one of the Bette Middler earphones first though. :evil:
