Saw your post on r/headphones. A moment of silence for the fallen comrade. Perhaps you can try a different pair?- Chaoscillator

Cool, guess I'll be picking up the EVO and maybe the 668B at some point. As far as I've heard, some people say the newer EVO doesn't need the mod. I'd love to have some HD600's but as a broke college student I take what I can get.- Chaoscillator

I'll probably pick up the velours just in case i have an issue with the comfort. I think I need more KZ's.. I need to try the ED9, ATE, ED3c.. too many to list.- Chaoscillator

How would you compare the 668B's to the S3? I'm very interested in picking up a pair. I'm debating between the 668B and 681 EVO because I need that detachable cable.- Chaoscillator

Oh, definitely. I think the HDS1 is great but my S3 is leaps and bounds better to listen to in every imaginable way. I thought the EDR1 looked a lot like the EDSE/ED2 but hadn't a clue. Hmm, I might have to try the ZN1 Mini then because I wouldn't mind a bassier ED3.- Chaoscillator

The ED9s and ED4s are definitely going to be my next purchases. I might try the ZS1 or ZN1 mini but I've heard the ZS1/ATE are bass bloated. Not sure about the ANV. Edit: I switched back to the stock tips that are included on the HDS1 by default and I believe comfort and SQ have improved. I...- Chaoscillator

Next I want to try the ED9. Are the EDR1/2s any good? I haven't seen a whole lot about them. Edit: I also think I'll pick up the ED4s next. I'm curious about the ZN1 mini and ATE-S.- Chaoscillator

In that case, it sounds like you're used to having too much bass and not enough mids and highs. I came from Skullcandy Titans and the "lack of bass" is evident in comparison, but that's because I can hear everything else now instead. Last night I put in my Titans just to try them and that lasted...- Chaoscillator

I agree, I just got mine yesterday and they sound relatively flat and neutral to me but not in a bad way. There's a noticeable lack of clarity IMO but it's not something that ruins the experience.- Chaoscillator

Just got my HDS1s and S3s a mere 8 days after ordering. They arrived faster than my Piston 3s did! Take my impressions with a grain of salt as I'm not the biggest audiophile around. OOTB impression, driven by my LG G3 listening to Spotify with 320 kbps: HDS1: The HDS1 is tiny...- Chaoscillator

This happened with my HDS1 and S3 before ePacket had actually got them. Might be a good idea to contact the seller. My HDS1 and S3 should be in today when the mail gets dropped off. I have high hopes for the pair of KZs.- Chaoscillator

I think I'll just bite the bullet and buy the S3's from that Aliexpress store. We'll see how I like them in comparison to the Piston 3's. Does anyone know which KZ's are definitely worth getting? I was also looking at the ED9, HDS1, ZS1 and ATE. Which pair should I add when I buy the S3?- Chaoscillator

Same here. Took a total of 10 days to arrive, so not too bad. For the $15 overall i paid for these, I'm satisfied. They're certainly not perfect, but they check all the right boxes reasonably well, mainly being versatility, build quality, practicality, comfort, and price. Now I'm curious...- Chaoscillator

Like I said, I got them from GearBest for $12.49 with $1.90 shipping and $1.35 insurance and they arrived in 10 days. Otherwise you'll likely have to gamble with fakes from Amazon or eBay sellers for nearly double the price.- Chaoscillator

Quite possibly, but then again I've been listening to them EQ'd for a while now and they sound nicely balanced with it. One of my points of reference is the old Monster Turbine, so take that for what it's worth. Funny that you mention that these are warm, whereas I see most people commenting on...- Chaoscillator

I bought these from GearBest on the 16th and just got them yesterday and I have to say I'm impressed with them. I've tried several of my dad's mid-range IEMs and these sound better than quite a few of them, especially for the price. He was impressed with them OOTB as well. They are quite bassy...- Chaoscillator
