Earbuds Round-Up
Hi all, long time reader since the start of this thread. Hadn't checked in for quite some time and was surprised that this quiet little thread had turned into a 900-page monster. Seems the ear bud mnarket has really taken off - good for us :-D Anyway, I already own a Senn MX580 (which has...- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
Looks good. However, it basically transforms the earbuds into IEMs, which I for one am not looking for in a bud. Nevertheless maybe worth a try, they're available from amazon (in Germany as well). Thanks- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
After a two-week vacation break from headphones, I listened to the Tingos again a few days ago at work. While the highs are still a bit overemphasized for my taste (and I'm as much a treble- as a basshead), I do have to admit I have been liking the TG38's sound more than before and found I was...- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
I assume you have the Apple iPods? IMHO these are tot too bad at all, and I for one prefer them to the TG-38. Your taste may vary of course, and as the others stated, the buds discussed here are cheap enough to buy them regardless.- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
Ooooh, you've got me interested @BenF I'm warming up to them. As I say, the longer you listen to them consecutively the more appealing they get. The sibilance is still kind of there, but I guess I'm getting used to that as well. Plus, I've been fidgeting with fit and am achieving better...- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
I don't think this forum is a place to be afraid. I do think, however, that fit is absolutely critical, and that may be my issue. When I angle the buds towards my ear canals and hold them, the sound improves noticeably. Now if I can just get them to stay that way when I remove my hands...- bonglee23

Sorry, I can't access any of these. Grooveshark tells me they are not operating in Germany any more, and Youtube seems to have some issues and no videos are playing. But the sibilance seems to be gone anyway, or I just had a bad track at that moment...- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
Sorry, I didn't mean to discourage anyone from buying these! Everyone's taste and hearing are different, so what may not please me could very well be exactly what you are looking for. As I said, they are not bad 'buds by any means, they just don't tickle my fancy the way the MX580 does for...- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
Keep in mind that none of these have a mic. For that purpose I use Apple's Earpods, and - dare I say it - I love them! Actually rank right behind the MX580 with even better bass performance- bonglee23

Dasetn/Tingo/Baldoor earbuds Reviews and Impressions
I received my TG-38S today and have been listening to them a bit on both my iPhone with 320 kb mp3 and on my DX50 with FLAC, no EQ on both devices. To be quite honest, I am a bit underwhelmed after all the praise the buds received here. I first compared them to my BEB 328R, and they sounded...- bonglee23

You guys made me curious, but I have been hesitant to order from Dasetn due to the apparent QC inconsistencies. But seeing as the TG-38S seems to be the even better bud, I just went ahead and ordered a pair from Aliexpress. Looking forward!- bonglee23

Absolutely agree. I have had the BeB for over 2 years now, listening to then every now and then. Always pleasantly surprised by the great sound they deliver.- bonglee23

***Earbud Guide - 22 Earbuds compared***
The Hisound housing is bigger than the MX580, which fit my ears perfectly. Consequently, the PAA1 Pro is slightly too big for my ears and while still fairly comfortable quickly loses its fit with movement. For that reason I only wear them in bed. If the 580 are a perfect fit for your ears, the...- bonglee23

Does anybody have an idea where I would be able to buy a pair of Blox TM7 or M2C? They ever seem to be available anywhere, not even ebay... Thanks, Steve- bonglee23

[Review] Brainwavz M4
I received my M4 from German distributor Headsound a few days ago, and have been listening with them for a few hours. All I can say is: WOW, I am loving those! I would even go so far as to say the M4 will replace my UE700 Dual BAs. Without having AB'd them I can still say that I am missing...- bonglee23

Earbuds Round-Up
+1 on both points. How the stock Sansa buds could even be compared to any of the buds discussed here is beyond me. The BEBs are realy really nice. My only problem with them is, I can't get as good a fit with them as with the Senn 580. But sound-wise they are excellent- bonglee23
