  Lunashops also has a 5 armature for $149 (no cable)

I have several Lunashops cables and tips, and they are very good.

 
Problem is though that it still isn't a quality guarantee. 
 
Also, the fact that we have no internal shots of these IEM's or even what drivers they're even using is a bit of an issue in my eyes.

Nothing is guaranteed, and all is unknown until someone tries them, much like the other discoveries here.
 
The 4 pin balanced adapters I have from them are fantastic though, and cheap compared to others.

So I have a funny story to tell...

I ordered the Easy UEs almost a whole month ago now. Yesterday USPS attempted to deliver to my house, which I moved out of a week ago. I figured to keep things simple I could just go over there and pick it up (I didn't move far). They did not leave it there or leave a notice, so I then went to the post office to pick it up. The man there told me some stuff (he mumbled) and what I got out of it if they my Easy UEs might be getting sent back to Easy...

I may never get my hands on the beautiful 2016 Easy UEs...

On the other hand my mother (I'm still a teenager in school living with my mother, not an adult) said she filled out a form so that all things shipped to that address will be forwarded, but I don't know if she filed it for USPS.

Who knows.....
Guess it wasn't that funny


Nooo
I will be in rage mode for the whole day

This is freaky as hell!!!!

I actually JUST came here to post this:

And ask about them. Not having seen this thread or anything...what are the chances of that?

So yeah whats the verdict? A beautiful 5-BA unit for ~$120? Sounds too good to be true. Do they have horrible engineering? Complete lies? Whose to say that there's actually 5 drivers in them? 

Any info would be tops!


I've seen these on Taobao, they have good reviews, unlike the 6 driver Chinese iem which people say sounds muddy and mixed up. The non-transparent shell makes it hard to confirm the number of drivers. I think they might be hybrids.

My Havi B3 broke today:frowning2:

the right side goes on off... I need new headphones. What's the best sound I can get for 50-60$?


Have a look at the PMV A-01, peter123 posted a review and compared it to the Havi:

Another popular option at the moment is the Shozy Zero.
 
Anyway, "best sound" is a very personal point of view.
 
PS: There are really a lot of Havi B3 dying prematurely.

Thanks I will give it a look.
And actually the B3 were very strong considering how I abused it. They were still going strong after 8 months of intense military training with me.

Yeah, my personal three favorites sub $100 is the B3, PMV-A01 and the Zero. They're all quite different though so if you want a similar sound as the Havi I really can't think of any other option in the price range, if you're looking for something different the other two are good options imo. I'm sure others will be able to add more options to the list :wink:

Could you do a quick comparison between these three? :)

Thank you Peter. I really like the B3, I like the extension both ends and detail but would love some more bass just slightly to give the music more body

Why not just get new B3 for $50?
