    Earbuds Round-Up

    How much is considered a decent output current? would 45mA from VE odyssey dongle be insufficient? how about 100mA from the Fiio A3?

    How do the BE3 compare to the m2c? I stopped following around 2012 and i remember back then m2cs received almost universal acclaim in all aspects for the price point. BE3 seem to be priced a little bit higher?
