I am using the Yuin OK2 earbuds, and I find the foam pads useful, providing that I cut holes in them to convert them to 'donut' type ear foams. But after converting them to donut-type, they easily slide out of place! Are there any solutions to that problem?   Would they stay in place if I...

Has anyone used both of these and can compare the sound quality?  I know this is a bit of an apples and oranges comparison, but they are both comfortably played without an amp and are (somewhat with the Grados) portable.  I've been thinking about the Grados but would appreciate the extra...

Well the right ear bud stopped working. Just wondering if I re-wire them, would there a possibility to make them work again? thinking in ordering from http://www.takefiveaudio.com. (they ship to Canada) I read some posts and I think i should get Mogami 2893 Mini Quad Cable and Neutrik...

Hello, I recently bought Yuin's OK2 earbuds. It came with one set of rubber covers, one set of rubber rings, no foam covers, no donut covers. I like the rubber covers. But I already tore one (my fault, obsessively taking on and off to compare with my self-made foam donut covers). Where can I...

Hello everyone, First, forgive my English, I'm Italian.  After years of loyal service I have to replace my beloved Yuin Ok2. I tried in the past month several types of headphones:  - HiFiMan Re-400 waterline...is very microphonic and, when I walk, footsteps echoing in my head <- (I had this...

Many of us here use PK1, PK2, ATH-CM700 or some other good earbuds. The earbuds sound and comfort are very dependable on the foams used. I found a very nice set of cushions for Sennheiser MX75 available at Sennheiser USA online store. Set include 4 grey foams with smaller pores than those of...

... I am very disappointed with OK2.   Well I had Yuin PK2 and I loved it so much! But unfortunately they got broken and I thought in make an upgrade? I read, re-read, and re-read all the forums and reviews and I concluded OK2 will be my new phones.   I got it already.   And my first...

I have tried many headphones but none is attached to the ear like ipod ones, so im looking this earphones like form but with better quality       thanks

Hey all,   I purchased OK2s a while back and for some reason found that the left channel seemed very slightly weaker than the right. I returned them and received a new pair but the same problem persists...   It's strange because some songs seem balanced but most do seem that they are...

Newbie question coming up; I need to find a suitable replacement for my iPhone headphones as I've worn my way through 3 pairs and all had the same fault - the little grey rubber strip came away from the earpiece. My main problem is that I can't stand the in-ear canal types headphones so have...

Hi,   In January 2010 I bought yuin pk 2 earbuds of head-direct, which I received in February. Unfortunately the earbuds broke down beginning of July. That's a total of 5 month usage while the warranty is only 3 months! The seller head-direct won't repair the buds or replace them and I now...

So Ive been doing some research on getting new earphones, never quite liked IEMs so after a bit of reading found out about the apparently infamous Yuin brand.   For now im set on getting the PK1, unless someone advises me otherwise, and please feel free to do so   I am currently in...

OK2, PFE, K319, ADDIEM, MX760 - known speed and instrument separation champs.   But Speed alone isnt enough - a LITTLE weight, fullness, body, density is needed for a punchy pacey presentation. too much body harms separation. I love to hear the change of tone as accurate as possible.  ...

I would like an earbud/IEM in the $50-60 range with almost no isolation for max safety on roads.   Anyone know of a good model that fits that bill?
