Excellent review d marc0! Almost makes me want to deal with the cable and pull out the 'ol MH1C's for a listen!


Thanks mate! Cable still sucks and I just wish it was more manageable. At least I now have MH1 tips as a bonus! Haha!

True! I find the mh1c tips work well on many different iems (great on vsd1le's for example, although I like the stock tips as well). Did you ever try the mh1c/mh1 tips on the h200's? I've been using them for a long time on the h200's although I have recently gone back to trying the stock black tips and am liking them a lot as well.

FYI folks, the CAL2's are sounding very, very good after a nights burn in. Remember these use the bio cellulose drivers. Good sound, ultra comfortable and portability make these and all around recommendation.

I haven't. Maybe if I find something wrong with my current tips + filter mod. I'm now using LG QB2 tips! The bore is exactly the same in diameter as the H200 nozzle. It eliminated accentuation in the highs without sacrificing bass fullness and tightness. Plus I can now deeply insert them in my ear canal!

Huh! You just tweaked my interest in the QB2's lol!

I don't mind the look but it is kind if juvenile looking. I bought an adaptor so I can try different cables. We'll see but its plenty good as it is. I think Vsonic and Sony have used this material before with favorable results.

^ Yeppp think it is a patented tech by Sony or something, and the recent anti-jpnese sentiments in China had resulted in VSonic making some pro nationalist statements that might have stopped it's use in their up coming products. This might be one of the reasons for the delays in releasing their new lineup as well.
 
Good for VSonic sticking to their guns but bad for us waiting for their stuff. haha

If there is a black friday sale, I'm all over these. Are they better than the CAL1?

Cleaner bass than the original CAL!s? That's all I can ask for really, that and better build (which seems to have been fulfilled) which left me unable to use them as my main portable HP.

LOL! $30 is still too expensive just to get tips... maybe find someone who bought an LG G2 phone who doesn't need the headset? They may even give it to you for free

TBH, I actually prefer the material on the MH1 tips. The QB2 tips can get a bit uncomfy if not inserted right. But nothing will stand in my way to get the best sound out of my H200!
