People talking about the RY4S, is it the version with the UE cable? or are we talking about this one?

I wrote the review in the showcase section it's copper braid cable .

I have no idea what the blue ones or rubberised cable ones sound like

Cool stopmotion, ETA for the full review?

Probably in a month or so, if I am not distracted

i have the emx 500 , R4YS and graphene mx 760 ( new version blue cable)

as far i am concerned.. the first 2 are somewhat similar but the R4YS has better clarity and wider soundstage and the emx 500 has better depth soundstage . in terms of bass they are both somewhat the same but better in their own ways.. if u prefer sub bass to mid bass then emx 500 is better but overall R4Ys has better bass throughout the soundstage and also has some sub bass..graphene is a different sound signature though... its tuned more towards impact weighty thick sound and depth soundstage and doesnt have the excellent articulation ( the flow of sound from top to bottom) of the emx 500 or R4YS...

But the graphenes will articulate more in terms fo forward backwards depth.. if u are mainly a concert, classical theatre hall music listener then the graphenes will do better.. than the other 2... or if u always listen to high res sources of this sort

For movie watchers, everyday youtube and mp3 or processed music or synthesized, emx and r4Ys is better...

I have the Nicehck MX760 Graphne for $29 and they are way better than the EMX500 in every aspect, and it's not even close. Just my opinion though. Also not all Graphne's are created equal.

That's my opinion as well. I like the "new" ones also, but the "old" ones are really good (and unique).

What are the differences from the old to the new one? They have a more than 10$ difference

As far as I know the only one to get is the Nicehck one. It is by far the better sounding one and most expensive at $29.90. All the others do not have the same sound as this one. The bass being the most obvious difference, mids and treble are much more refined than the cheaper ones. The very first Graphne's which came out in late June to early July of 17 (Also from Nicehck) are very unique in that they are very resolving more so than the newer ones by Nicehck, though the newer ones have more and bigger bass and better texture, are just as resolving, but warmer in the mids and top end. I love them both and would easily take these ofer the Shozy BK which I have. Those who thought the original Graphne's were too bright, and or harsh will find the newer ones by Nicehck more to their liking. Again it's the ones for $29.90.

Huh! I've been calling my $29.90 NICEHCK graphenes the "old" ones, and the $17.99 NICECHK graphenes the "new" ones. But you are saying there's and older and newer version of the $29.90 ones as well. Whew! I got my $29.90's on Sep 2017, so I guess I have the newer ones.

So to be clear, I have the newer $29.90 ones, and the $17.99 ones. Got it!

Btw, i havent heard the BK's, but that doesn't completely surprise me - the newer 29.9ers are awesome and are my most listened to buds.

I also have the same as you (I think), Im sorry but they don’t hold a

IMO they aren’t in the same league but to each their own.

I don’t get the hype over them but I can acknowledge they have good detail retreival in the treble but are quiet harsh and bright so it’s not without consequence.

I'm not hearing any harshness or brightness. It's almost like we are listening to different buds. Oh well.

More likely our different sources! I’ll try it again on my new Cayin N5ii dap I want to buy soon. That should be a real test of quality for the graphene’s being a higher quality source than anything I currently own

It’s more likely source and ear differences than the buds being drastically different themselves.

I've wanted to like the BK's, they are ok, but they have this harsh spike in the 2 to 5K range that just drives me nuts, and they are a bit too mid forward for me. There was someone on here who heard the BK the same way as I hear them, can't remember who. Anyway, I know that there a lot of people who love the BK and as @seanc6441 said, to each their own.

Congrats! It will be interesting to see how the n3ii affects all of your buds. Should he good!

@Dark Helmet, what source are you using?
