Ahh, thank you so much for the info.....well this will make my future easier as I don't have to search for idea online and ended up getting lots of crap.....anyways thanks a lot.

Did you go to Popular Bookshop or Stereo? Also, try Valore EP0008. Very nice earbud. In fact if someone is coming to US, I would love to get them. The same buds are at US$28 on AE but only S$13+ on Valore store (site: https://www.hachi.tech/product/6926934809400/VALORE-Earphone-with-Mic-EP0008-Brown)

Anyone here who owns the Awei ES10m, Vido and Yincrow X6? Just grabbed Awei last week and bass is great, can go lower than most buds I suppose even when used naked. Curious how these 3 compares with each other esp. in the bass department.

@golov17 I see you've discovered and shared here the Pioneer SE-CE521 before. Wonder if it's not bass light? Can you compare with Cygnus or Monks+? I also grabbed a Pioneer SE-CE11 last week, loved the mids and highs on these, seems well balanced in these frequencies and definitely more detailed than what I'm hearing from the ES10m. Satisfying cymbals and I can crank up the volume without hearing a spike anywhere, unlike in the Monks+. Responds well in EQ if you want more bass. I'm hoping the bigger brother SE-CE521 has the same highs/mids and better bass.

Go to DIY EMX500, nice buds with good bass too

Just joining the forum after being a lurker.

Question time boys. I have NiceHCK DIY PK1 on the way.
I am really curious about the lows tho. How is it? is it too lean like some comment suggests?

Do you mean NiceHCK DIY PK2? The lows are - meh... and not much if any sub-bass. It's a sweet sounding all-rounder though. I have a Yincrow X6 in transit. More bass from what I've read compared to NiceHCK DIY PK2.

Yep, yours are accurate. NiceHCK DIY PK2 (not PK1). This one https://goo.gl/pO561d.
I like bass and for years, I like warm sound. But whatever I am ready for new taste. Thanks for the info man!

Unfortunately this is not the first time something bad have happened to people who try to do business with @vapman. I am sorry to say but the pattern is getting clearer and clearer.

@vapman ???

Tbh I wouldn't be surprised. I think his last selling feedback and rggz's case (and apparently few more people) shows us a clear problem when it's regarding trades.

Vapman had had problems in the past with life popping up, and tried to make amends for any issues caused. Until I see reason to believe otherwise, I'd prefer to continue to treat it this way. Would still like to get either my monk back or the mod I paid for, but it's not the end of the world.

Sorry, but I don't know if you're joking or not. But, if you're being serious it shows the same scammer behavior a few years ago with a different nickname: http://imgur.com/a/1RgOn -- I believe a lot of people have personal problems and it never should be an excuse to start scamming people or fake tracking numbers (which is a federal crime).

About to the "to make amends for any issues caused" I'm not sure about @Mr.Sneis and @VORR and reading comments on the facebook's group now (https://www.facebook.com/groups/EarbudsAnonymous/permalink/1859077841020408/) there are more people who got scammed and haven't received anything since 2016. But well, if it's not that bad for you...

Have you had any personal problems with Vapman? I personally have had issues twice in this respect with Vapman, but have also had many other pleasant dealings and have enjoyed chatting with them about various things. So I personally choose to believe that there are underlying issues causing the behavior and have faith in them. Really, I'm more worried about someone I quite got along with rather than the bad. I do agree that if Vapman's a scammer then that's an issue, but I'm not convinced it's the case. And no, I'm not joking.

50/50 for me.
I had one successful trade with vapman. Fast shipping. Well packaged. No problems at all.
The other one was with seahf 650 and extra cash and bhobuds back in February... I never did receive them... We agreed he would send me back seahf with insurance. I am very surprised to see how many people never received their bhobuds as well today after nmatheis posted it.
Imo vapman is not a bad guy but has probably some issues. . It's a wonderful person to talk with, but unreliable with business...

Vido with original Foams are excellent. Lots of Bass and Smooth sound signature. Some amount of feel of Studio like sound. SHE3800 was good too but I guess this is slightly better. Best budget earbuds so far I guess. Highly recommended if you like to have multiple earbuds in your kitty.
