That was intentionally my plan. But for some dumb reason, amazon doesn't deliver any of these earphones to austria. I can ask a german friend to bring them to me, but sending back wouldn't probably be easy or possible then.

Order them at Thomann, 4,80 delivery to Austria so ~25€ in total

Not heard the M6 but EB601 are better than Superlux. Order the M6 and the EB601 and send back the ones you like the least.

If the Winintone are really the same as the Sendiy M2 (that look exactly the same but cost more) well, I comapre Superlux HD381 and them right now, the M2 have more air between instrument but can feel more distant or dark at the same time than the hd381, they have more bass too that perhaps can interfert with midrange. I'll say they sound more clean but less grainy and textured, HD381 are a little brighter and midcentric with an overall more neutral soundsignature, more around your head sound than panoramic sounding like the M2. Not sure the M2 can be found for 12$ including shipping if your not from England tough. Perhaps you'll better to try 2 sub-15$ earphones instead of one 30$ one....
And about the M6, I always wonder if they are the same than these:

M6 look expensive to me, especially for construction, will need to make comparaison to know but I will not personally buy them so....

I'm not sure they are 100% same as the Sendiy M2 as I've not tried the M2, but the Winintone are very very good. The appearance even right down to the internals looks the same. I can't beat that price no matter where I looked.

Nice if it can be get under 20$ it really is a deal...if somebody can compare them to Sendiy M2 so we know for sure it's the same it could be very interesting. For me, as i'm in Canada, Amazon isn't really interesting and quite expensive compared to other option, sometime amazon.com have exception, but must of time it is either ''no shipping'' or ''expensive shipping'' (+custom duties if it's more than 100$)

Hum, and what about the Ali link? Look familiar to the M6? A little confuse here...

Interesting finds! Especially single dynamic TS1, graph looks nice (if legit and accurate).


Btw, anyone has pics of new soon to release LZ Big Dipper (7BA) ? Would like to know how much they will cost and what kind of design they use. Seems "attack" & "leap" to big boys league.

@Nymphonomaniac - i meant that the model from your aliexpress link really looked quite familiar to the Mee M6 pro
Yeah, I don't know how the Mee sound tough.
And I finally fall on this after:https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...05.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.306.f9ngmt
So it look like this housing is on the DIY market now. Kinera use it too for their dual hybrid.
What I know, it's the Hifi Union A8 sound quite good, but not exceptional, still, when I use a silver plated cable with them it help details to pop up and I tell myself: okay, finally, I will give a chance to this one.
....To be continued.

I look at Aliexpress ultra cheap best value IEM way too often , it became somewhat an obsession cause of some incredible deal and interesting creations....but I can't buy everything, especially in sub 20$ where my personal collection is just TOO MUCH.

Anyway, what the heck about THIS:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dou...23.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.287.bMjwmx

and this that perhaps I will try:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Lux...12.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.302.bMjwmx

and:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Pro...15.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.295.bMjwmx

and this Audiobudget favorite too:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dou...78.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.284.bMjwmx

and hum, look like FAAEL became ''big'' and now have new products, more than intriguing!:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...41.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.270.bMjwmx


Sorry if I throw too much links or stuffs, can be usefull for some secret deals diving to find dual drivers of good quality (?) for 6$ or 5star reviewed WRZ X7 by Audiobudget for 11$. I just can't understand this chinese IEM madness:grimacing:

Did you try **** UEs Hybrid? Not sure about the sub bass tough, for the rest of what ''you enjoy'' it's quite good. Personally I prefer them to the 4in1. **** XBA 6in1 look very nice too, but I did not try them.

Had the BLON S1 quite some time ago. Have not been listening to it lately, they're just average but i can imagine getting this for sports as they're super comfortable to wear.. at least for me it is. Here's my impression some time back.



Got this IEM earlier today. Nobody seems to discuss of care about them maybe because they look like cheap plastic but i have to say this is by far the most comfortable IEM with the best fit that i've owned.

They look cool to me in terms of design with very lightweight shells, i almost don't feel like i'm wearing anything in my ears and they got the memory wire part just so right that none other around ear fit IEMs were able to provide. The memory wire is just soft and flexible which sits comfortably around my ears and the cable is soft as well with very lightweight. Probably they design it in a way to make it ideal for sports and IMO they made it right.

Because of the ergonomic design of the shells, they isolate really well while i'm transiting to work earlier and their sound although nothing spectacular to make it a giant killer, is very good in its own class price-performance wise.

Overall they have a V shaped signature with well-extended treble which is a bit bright and bass that goes deeper than my current driver (xiaomi pro hd). Bass is on the slower and softer side when compared to the Xiaomi but has more quantity when going up. The bass bleeds ever so slightly into lower midrange but not to the point that it will distort or affect the clarity of midrange.

Midrange is recessed as compared to lows & highs. Lower midrange is fuller sounding when compared to upper midrange which sounds a bit thin when i'm listening to female vocals but overall is warm and smooth, not fatiguing to listen to.

Treble is quite bright. At some instances i noticed the cymbals sounded a little too splashy and not so refined in texture especially when there're too many instruments playing at the same time in the mix but still ok for me to not calling it harsh.

Just in case anyone's interested in it, i personally think this at its current price tag of 98RMB at Taobao is really a good deal, at least it beat the crap out of the DZAT DT05. As usual YMMV.
