Glad I didn`t wait for it as reading comparison against IT01 confirmed my right choice.

I just wish the IT01 had slightly more soundstage. It's pretty good but the KZ5v2 I have surrounds me from afar. It's still there and better than my other IEMs, emersive but heavy like you are on the front seat of a intimate audience, which isn't necessariliy a bad thing, it's heavier on the ears.
PS: still my most enjoyable IEMs.

A good store with a good price to buy Tin Audio T2?

There is a newest (2018) and a old version of Tin Audio T2?


https://es.aliexpress.com/store/pro...-DJ/1825606_32828514347.html?isOrigTitle=true

https://es.aliexpress.com/store/pro...nal/1922340_32830491455.html?isOrigTitle=true

Open links like a new tab

this are the same tin audio t2?

best regards
Regular price is $49, I got it on sale for $33 from the well-respected NiceHCK store. The store owner helped me with the free exchange of a faulty earpiece after more than 4 months of use...they initially had asked me to send it back to China.

You first link points to the "newer" T2 with the revised cable...the earpieces and sound have not changed. The second link is inconclusive.

Most sellers were long sold out of the original T2 last year. I’d be willing to bet that every one you’d find now is the new one. Maybe a really obscure seller might still have an old pair in their inventory, but it would be 100:1.

Why The second link is inconclusive?

What does it mean inconclusive?

thanks

A tip for a store?

I usually use NiceHCK.

Also HotFi is good if I’m not in a rush. Because despite them being legit they often take orders (at super low prices) without having stock. I do get the stuff eventually though.

I've been enjoying my HotFi HM1 (2016) Hybrid Earphones (2x Dynamic, 2x Knowles 30017 Dual BA) [6 drivers per side], since October, 2016.
And, I've been considering the newer HotFi HM2 (2017) Hybrid Earphones (2x 7mm Dynamic, 2x Knowles 30017 Dual BA, 2x Knowles 29689 BA) [8 drivers per side] - but it is quite a bit more expensive.

I have had this one for a couple of months. The Hotfi HM9, I like it a lot. 6BA per side. Not nearly as expensive as the one you are looking at but expensive to me. I have the purple one. I did not like the cable.. it was too grabby around my ear so I gave it to my husband and he gave me another that he had. Probably should have taken the no cable option.

That's a nice looking copper cable.
