It's ok. It's very very good for the money, but it's also similarly priced to the Blon BL-01 which is probably better.

What it isn't is some kind of giant killer that wipes the floor with £100 IEMs for fun. At around £10 it has rivals, and it only beats the worst offerings at £30. I don't regret my purchase at all and I could just about live with just the MH755 if I lost all my others. But that's all.

I'm really tempted to jump on this Blon BL-03 hype train. But still not sure if it'll be big enough upgrade (I know that it's relative for each user) over my current daily IEM, the KZ ZS10 Pro and TinAudio T2. Also what would warrant a big enough upgrade over the $50ish ZS10 pro? I was considering the Guideray GR-1 but also chifi's in the $100-$150 range like the TFZ No.3. I'm leaning towards a new IEM that sounds more like ZS10 pro than the T2.

Both the CCA C12 or the BLON BL03 should be your next step, IMHO!

The Sony is over rated unless you plan on changing the cable. I wish I never bought mine.

Surely you knew when you bought the Sony MH755 that it came with that short J cable and that people were either recabling theirs, adding a short extension cord or using it with a bluetooth thingie like the ES100.

That does not make the sound "over rated."

I agree. The only proper way to use them is either es100 or Sansa Clip route. Or recabling..

to be fair, that is their original intended purpose, to be used with bluetooth adapters, that's why it has a short cable. i use a cable extender on mine, and modded on with mmcx. i still think if i don't have the rest of my gears and can only have one earphone, i would still be happy with just the MH755

The only (not the only. I could have turned the longer cable behind my neck to my R ear) comfortable way to use them ✌Or use the clip of a Sansa Clip / ipod nano 6 / Shanling M0 / Fiio m50 etc.

Agree. Maybe not the best at nothing, but do all quite well with very good timbre and coherence.

This is what I always find so interesting about sound preferences. For me, the MH755 made me wonder why I spend money on Chi-fi, particularly on the more budget side. The MH755, when judged on purely sound quality, were better than anything I had bought from Chi-fi under the $40 price range. Maybe I haven't heard the right chi-fi at the price point, but the MH755 just sounded better to me. I got the Sony MH755 and my Koss KPH30i the same week. Both of them made me sit down and honestly think about how much money I'd need to spend to get something better sounding. The value is out of the world for me.

What do you feel rivals it at $10? Aside from the BL-01 you referenced. I've never heard those before.

The ED9 isn't bad for the money, but the Mh755 is better. The ED9 doesn't do anything badly at all, it just leaves me wanting a bit "more". The other one in the mix is not discussed on here. All of those are great for the money but to my ears the Tin T2 and Blon BL03 are better.

Diminishing returns and all that though...

No rivals at £4.99 (what I paid). And with an extension for c£4, still no rivals.

 

[genck]

I don't find the BLON 03 better than the MH755, very similar to my ears, for whatever that's worth (nothing).

I'm sorry if I don't follow. You said the MH755 has rivals at $10. Then listed 2 IEMs that are much more than $10. The ED9 you mentioned you said is worse than the MH755, which I absolutely agree with.

Ofc tin t2 are better (I love them), but the value of mh755 is insane for me. If i didnt care much about sound quality mh755 would solve the problem (after recabling )

 

[SomeEntityThing]

Where might I be able to buy an MMCX modded MH755? I don't have the tools nor experience for soldering.

This one I honestly don`t get.
Yeah, it sounds fun and good for money but considering "splashy" highs (cymbals are way overdone and "artificial"), fixed springy rubbery cable and heavy weight - not worth imo.
I`ve had many of them for gifting and modding and there are also different batches/revisions (this is not new with KZ) that sound slightly different. Same thing with highs though.
Among KZ`s, I think ATE(ATR), which also has at least 5 revisions, is littlebit better bet.
But... I`d rather keep that money, collect and take BL-03 or VE BIE and call it done. While MH755 sounds also awesome (legit) there is huge risk getting fake one and it has fixed short J-cable.
This is just my subjective opinion about low-budget. Depending on needs, fit and sound preferences, choices may vary but I still wouldn`t guide ppl to ED9 at this point of chi-fi times.
