again?

I dont know. As we know about the truth, we have to investigate other ones. According to anonymous bbs in japan, **** might send new one to this user. He hope another investigator check the dt2+.

That price difference

Directly from Xiaomi on taobao, for original RRP of 149RMB. I have an acquaintance bringing them back soon

How does Taobao work? Does it ship internationally?
 
And another thing, where do you check your Aliexpress tracking besides Aliexpress itself?
I usually use 17track, but their tracking number does not work there.

Haven't heard the 800 so can't compare.

FWIW the Moni is turning into my best bang for buck IEM I've got purchased.

Can you please compare the Moni one with that " unmentionable  " iem about soundstage and instruments separation and sound clarity ,  thanks .

Its china's biggest online marketplace. Some sellers ship internationally, or you have reshippers like Mr tao.  
However most items there are resold (for a markup) on aliexpress, sometimes even for the same price. Its only if you want something quite rare/expensive that its worth ordering through mr tao (eg He 400i on sale for $200), as shipping+fees will cost quite a bit.
 
On a funny side note, a few months ago I bought these 15RMB ($2) in ears from Miniso in china, which is like a rip off store of common things. It won't win any awards, but the sound is a surprisingly coherent V shape. If you have nothing else, its adequate. They had 20/30RMB ones which sounded a bit better, but I gave them to children as gifts.

I had made the DT2 plus purchase on 10/19/2016, at the NHC store. Except he did not send the item. However, some forum users have reported that the HCK send them the DT2 plus, so I believe the seller eventually learned of the problem and handled the other shipments until a response from the manufacturer.

I canceled the purchase with HCK and went shopping in the forbidden store.

But after the false ba I cancelled the purchase too.

I also ordered them from the same store, but the seller already shipped it. I talked to the seller today and he was also saying that One is Chinese BA and another is Knowles BA. I don't know what to do now. If it turns out fake, I will return them to the seller.

So far my impressions match these. Very mid-forward and lots of mid-bass, except I think they have very good subbass compared to my **** UES and UE900s. For 20$ I'm pleased. Soundstage and separation is good, not airy and sparse like on the UES and UE900s.

The seller replied:

If you say that your DT2 plus sounds inferior to UES, you definitely have a problem instead of 1dd and 2bas.

I never said it was inferior. It's a completely different sound signature for sure.

I'm a bass player, so that midbass bump really helps in figuring out lines and riffs.

any semi end game feeling iems below sw3 (maybe 80 usd or less ) with detachable cable

-might have gone with the pmv mk2 but just found out they are not with detachable cable 

-maybe with a hint of warm rather then on the cold side 
 
treble peaks arent my preference t-peos h200 and zs3(a little due to a few treble peaks etc i belief)

Musicmaker TK12 might be worth a look.

Received the Magaosi K1... Out of the box they are marvelous. I'm using them with comply tips, Fiio X7+am3 module and balanced cable.

I'm using the default filter and listening to Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah, I'm shivering and getting goosebumps. Soundstage is sweeet and separation is among the best I've ever heard. I'm gonna have to try to A-B them against the DQSM D2, which I absolutely love, to see which ones will be my king of the hill...

Got a feeling these can be the best iem ive ever had...

There is a version with detachable cable but I can't find it at the moment. Also people saying good things about the Magaosi K1 but I don't have any personal experience with it. Stilleh above and TWIN claim they're really good. I hope I didn't make a mistake ordering the Moni One instead of these.
