Nope, unrelated! Though if he offered that as replacement, I wouldn't complainIs that a replacement you're getting for your two broken earbuds?

My first Batch Arrive today.
Listening to Blur 189 mx64ohm (the red one) this afternoon and sounds great, awesome mid range with sweets vocals and an holographic soundstage
Many thanks to @ian91 for letting me know about Blur earbuds.
Now time to experiment with foams, perhaps Donuts model will be better for my tastes.

I look forward to trying donut foams, I've some on the way but another week or so before they land.
Nice to get two Blur in the one delivery! Can't wait for my next to arrive and compare.

Very cool. I had a H.H. Scott 399 for years and I loved how it sounded. Finally traded it for a Sansui AU-111. Love vintage tubes
Contacted a guy over near Austin, TX - who had a listing for a refurbished 299C, that had sold for $900, on the Reverb site.
He said that the cost for completely refurbishing my 299C (with top quality parts - caps, and transformers (if needed)) would be ~$600.
His schedule is filled up until after Christmas.
.
It will be interesting to connect my Blur earbuds to the headphone output of a vintage tube amp, like my H.H. Scott 299C.

Who has both the PK32 New Line and the Wraith? Which is better for movie sound effects like explosions and epic battle scenes?

I have a 266 MX64 and had booked an order for the Wraith. However, I'm curious if the PK32 New Line would be the better choice. The 266 MX64, although very transparent, clear and open sounding, lacks some oomph/slam on the bass area specially for movies and music genres that need it. Not saying that bass is absent. It's just not it's strong quality. For the most part, it serves me well but still curious what the Gen 4 Blur can bring to the table. Appreciate if anyone here have thoughts and/or actual experience of the Wraith and PK32.

Listening to Shozy BK, I told myself, "This is the warmness I am looking for." Very good bass presence and impact, super smooth and yummy midrange and sweet, natural vocals. The downside for me is the soundstage which is not wide maybe has enough depth but pretty intimate which may come limited for some music genre and it's less grand. Hope that the Wraith will sound like the BK with a wider, airy soundstage and maybe with better bass texture and detail. That would be sweet.

I can't see you being disappointed by the Wraith. All your descriptors of the Shozy BK seem to apply. The Wraith has a excellent bass texture and detail with good stage, especially in stage height. Unfortunately I have not heard the BK so I can't directly compare.
I believe the Wraith will be warmer than your MX64 Special Warm Tuning.
Edit: on second thoughts, it's quite possible the New Line might offer you greater bass impact and I keep hearing such good things about it...I would probably take a chance on the PK32 New Line.
