I'm kind of digging the looks and specs of the ruglamour ag-r1.

It looks like the dita iems, appears to have removable cables. There's just not much in terms of an item description on the two listed on aliexpress which makes me hesitant to pull the trigger


Yep, they're the ones that keep ending up in my cart as well :)

  Still on the fence for the im07... I just am afraid to get them and be disappointed coming from the havis...

Lol on impulse I bought the gr07 from lmue... We're on the same boat.. I sure hope the gr07 don't disappoint.

That and i'm worried about the infamous sibilance..

I have IM50 and Havis. Since IM70 is said to be a little bit refined version of IM50s and I use them without filters which they can be more similar I guess. IM50/70 has more upfront mids and vocals which is more natural and life like and has more bass quantity and laid back treble while Havi is more balanced has better soundstage and treble extends more. If you are more into vocals and mids you should go for IM50/70.

Also keep in mind that if you want the best of Havi, you should buy an amp. On the other hand IM50/70 is easier to drive.

Thank you for the input

Tips play a HUGE part in how the HZ EP001 sound.
 
As these things burn in, the bass comes more forward. Narrow bore tips (I was using Sony large hybrids) the bass starts to get bloated.
 
I was able to remedy this with my Lunashops red/gray wide bore tips.
 
Stock tips don't work too well for my ears as usual

Hmm, anyone compared the GR 07 BE to the RE-300s?

No comparison. The only facet the 300 wins is in bass quantity and comfort. Highs, lush mids, timbre, imaging, soundstage, and clarity all go to the GR07. It's not close.

The HZ EP001 bass becomes more and more prominent with burn in. It's now in front of the midrange. It's a shame because out of the box I really enjoyed the midrange on these, and now it's hard to appreciate because of the overshadowing bass. Is it still really good and does it punch well above its price point? ABSOLUTELY! I think this shows a ton of promising aspects for their first offering. It's better than most of the KZ offerings I've heard to date. It isn't going to revolutionize the audio market, but I doubt many people if any will feel they've wasted their money by purchasing these for less than $30.

Sold my HiFiMan RE-300 and my Zero Audio Doppio, as I get ready to take the plunge on the Sony H3, Fidue A83, Sony FX850, or FXT200?? In the meantime, my Narmoo S1, Havi B3, and ZA Tenore will sadly have to do.

Save your money, get the fide a83 if not, Don't forget the audio technica ckr9.

The fx850 or fx850 is not bad.

Then again all the listed in ears are vastly different.

Want great bass (quantity with good quality)cwith a balance? Get the H3
.

Want a balanced in ear? The fide a83

Want a somewhat midforward in ear with great soundstage in depth and height, with awesome bass? Ckr9s.

Want a euphoric mid and powerful bass and large sound stage? The fx850.
