KSC75 is unreal for the price, its probably on par with those cheap over ear chinese headphones. The only downside is that there is close to or no isolation xD
Isolation is the TOQUE:wink:
That will certainly sound better than this haha:

Hmmm, regardless of how they sound, those look a little too OOC to me. Lots of excess weight from unnecessary design characteristics. I’d also be concerned that they aren’t very comfortable where they exit the ear as well.

I can’t really tell from the photos - is the cable removable or not?

Yes, and I find the Portapros ($39 at London Drugs on sale) lack ooomph in comparison.
Just wondering, whats you portable gear Otto?

Portapro are quite praise about there bass performance, but its not a big thick bass, still, incredibly well presented and quite extended for the price and for an open design like this its very impressive. Need some little amping to shine IMO, out of my Xduoo X3 it wasnt as impressive than Ibasso DX90(perfect warm+bright-detailed pairing), but once I plug it to a portable amp it became a whole other experience, when listening to Dummy from Portishead it sound just soooooooooo goooooooooood! Must admit its my go to headphone for portable use, so small too. Anyway,the oooomph thing make me even more intrigued by KSC75. They should eat less of my hairs too, Portapro can be tricky about that.

Whats in your ears or on-around your ears RIGHT NOW pals???

Me, again, its the PMV A01 MK2 that I use with an AK4490 DAC-AMP....that make them sound just OUT OF THIS FOCKING WORLD! Like....soundstage is so wide with the AK4490, bass is now orgasmic, thick, punchy, details are 3D poping around my head....its just so intense. Listen to electronic What music, AGF and Ametsub. Really, I even get back reading reviews cause I was like....did anybody reviews tham so they get more recognition? Yep, 3x5stars reviews especially saying of underated and still quite unknow they are. Hum. Wish they make another version with detachable cable and why not a fourth driver!

why the extra driver? My thinking is increasingly if it aint broke....
Too many multi BA hybrids that really lack cohesion compared to a lot of the 1ba/1DD or single DD alone.

A resistor can be added to the drivers of the KSC75, PortaPro, etc for improved bass (cleans up some muddies too). 30-75ohms (no more than 75 though) is what works best.

There’s a number of simple an effective mods for those headphones (Kramer mod, quarter mod, resistor mod, etc).

The mods turn great headphones into even better headphones, especially when you consider the price you paid.

Yup. More does not always = better.

And hybrid (regardless of how many BAs) does not always = better vs a dynamic driver.

End of story about the DIY 6BA iem from ''shenzhen Tiandirenhe Co.,LTD. Store''.

I loose 25$ (refund 60$) but will keep the crappy iem (should have take with cable....so I will have something to use)....and will not have to struggle with shipping and all...

AND, must of all, this seller admit all his products was defective and will stop selling them. I really think its for the best and im pround about that.

Anyway, all of this is words, and I will not go verify in the futur if he sell it again as I will never go back there.

Peace.
