Found 2  versions and a seller who ships to my country(surprisingly)  on amazon. carbo Tenore ZH-DX200-CT and carbo Basso ZH-DX210-CB which one do you recommend ?  it will cost me  around 5k after conversion but if they are as good as you say i'm willing to take the jump

 
Carbo Tenore ZH-DX200-CT
 
Less bass,  Better SQ.

It would be nice to compare the wooden xkduns to the wooden awei. Is edse (much) better than awei q9? Which is more natural?

SoundSOUL S-018

XKDUN is better than AWEI. Punchy and tight bass, better clarity and fit.

Sorry, I would not have suggested it, but you do not have a country listed under your profile.

Talking about cheap IEMs, I can't help but mentioning XKDUN. Great IEMs that shoot much higher than their price range. They have tight bass, great mids, extended highs that are not sibilant and all around very clear and detailed sound. If you are interested in trying some of their models - you can look for suggestions in my headphone inventory list.

Any recommendations maybe? As I see, you have tons of sweet n cheap IEMs. Especiatlly from the mentioned xkdun and soundmagic series (for electronic music).

I had lots more IEMs but as of couple months ago I started sifting through them just cause I ran out place for new ones. I'm yet to go through the SoundMAGIC that I have but I've managed to revise all the XKDUNs I had and left with only the ones I liked. You can see them in my headphone inventory. I don't listen to electronic music but I think that all the models I have sound very good for the price which is very low.

I will be selling stuff to save up for other gear, so if anyone wants a good price on: VSD3, Brainwavz Hm5, Logitech UE 4000, Sound Soul S-018, KZ ED3 PM me. Giving you guys chance before I put up the ads

I used to LOVE comparing the ultra cheapies. You grow out of them though, as the difference in SQ between an Awei and a Dunu Titan is substantial.

When a $20 iem can beat something like the titan, then they are worth looking at.

Great write up though, much appreciated!

Edit: I misread what you wrote. Edited my post to reflect that. Thought you said so what happened bud? LOL 
 
It is true to an extent that now I am more willing to consider higher priced sets such as the Dunus and Fidues, having gotten  taste of the good stuff
 
I am still interested in the likes of Titan 1 and CKR9 etc

Yes, you can get used to a "good" life really fast, fine caviar of DUNUs and Fidues lol!!!
 
And to answer your original question before you edited it, DITA only gets dusted off whenever I need it for review comparison (the original intent of that review loaner).  I'm a bit obsessed right now with UM Pro 50 and testing it with different cables.  Or I should say, I'm more obsessed with cables than actual IEM lol!!!

He'll be okay as long as he doesn't now start going through TOTL's like candy. Now that would be expensive!

And you will find many people to not believe in how the cables can affect sound changes !
