After you take them off once, you get used to it; it just feels worse than it really does like you'll break the thing. Unfortunately for me, I haven't actually taken them out of the box for a few months now as I didn't find an occasion to use them. I still have to find some pads I want to use too.

Looks like I"m set on the ATR. Now I have to figure out between the ZST and ZS3. I don't think I'll grab the silver cable, the savings aren't that much and they cost just as much as the IEMs themselves. And besides, I was thinking about sleeving my own cables anyway.

So with the 11.11 sale hitting aliexpress, what are the go-tos? One side of my ED9 isn't working, and I don't use the HDS1 anymore because it doesn't have a mic lol.   ATE, ATE-S, ED12, ZS3, EDR2. Depending on how much it is tomorrow, I might just get all 5. But if not, what would you guys...

Has someone taken apart the whole thing or have images of how much you can actually disassemble? Just curious because I'm thinking about painting it. I'd check myself, but I don't have my SHPs with me atm.

Any decently priced custom 3.5 sleeved/braided cables?

Are there actual brick and mortar stores that would sell thew new 9500 (9500S?), in the LA area? Unfortunately I forgot about checking up the newegg prices, then heard about the S too late, as my friend is coming back home to visit, and even 2 day shipping is cutting it close.

Well this is unfortunate, the left side of my ED9 isn't working 95% of the time. Any ideas what I can do?

Pretty annoyed, because I still haven't found a place locally, that lets you demo the MK3s. And this has been happening since Christmas, give or take.   Anyway, $80 for the T20 MK2 or 150 for the T50 MK3?   edit - no bias, or should I just spend my money elsewhere.

The ebay seller that sold the HDS1 and ED9 was "vovotrade." And I'm convinced these guys just straight up took my money. I'll be asking for a refund in the next week or so when the "second" set of KZs inevitably do not arrive at my door.   I'll just grab them from alieexpress next time. What a...

Man, tomorrow it's going to be 41 days since they shipped my ED9 Black and HDS1. If they don't show up tomorrow, I might as well get them to expedite ship me a new pair (or I'll just pick out new ones or something, got any recommendations?) and name drop the ebay seller.   This is ridiculous.

Quick question as to how to proceed. I purchased the ED9 and HDS1 on ebay back on Dec 1st. Decided to check up on the tracking number since it still hasn't arrived, I get the following "Parcel#xxxx is invalid, China Post has not received any parcel associated with !"   This normal? I remember...

Lol man, I'm still waiting for my HDS1 and ED9s. It's been more than a month :(

Just picked up a pair of the Piston 3s as I have a flight to catch on Friday, and the KZ IEMs I ordered won't make it on time.   OOTB, they sound darn good, but what do I know. I'm not exactly well versed and experienced in the various nuances of audio.

  How I'd look, waiting for the package if I won.

Since my KZs won't be delivered in time before I leave, should I pick up the Piston 3s in the mean time for my flight? Or just deal with the Mee M6 I've been rocking for a few years now.

Lol when did they announce the HDS2? Now I feel like I should've waited instead of buying the HDS1 last night.

Ok guys, ordered the HDS1 and ED9. Will let you guys know...in a month, on how they turn out!

user: dokkj   Not necessarily PC hardware, but stuff you wouldn't find at your local bestbuy. I guess what I'm saying is, more enthusiasts type of things.

Any differences between the silver, and black ED9? Just the color or is there something different with the new black ones?

Just pick between whoever is selling the HDS1 and ED9 cheapest? I'll just wait the month for delivery. Anything different with the black ED9?

Thanks, now I've got to find sellers that offer it.   edit - well this is unfortunate, checked out every listing on on the first page for the HDS1 on Alieexpress, no epacket offered for Canadians lol. I haven't seen it as an option on ebay either.

Where are you guys buying from that have these quick turn around times for shipping? Someone that doesn't take a month to ship to NA?

I think I'll go for the HDS1 and maybe the ED9. As much as I'd like to order right now, I'm worried they'll show up when I'm out of town and it'll just get lost in the holiday shuffle of packages.

Yeah, they've got the Mk2 on demo, but no Mk3s. I've called pretty much everywhere in the GTA.   Long and McQuade, AVShop, Moog, etc.   You guys feel that a demo Mk2, that is $30 less than a new Mk3, is worth it, taking into consideration the price and time spent finding and buying the...

Well, this is rather disappointing. Not a single retailer has the Mk3s on display/demo in Toronto.
