  Thanks for your impressions. I hope that the M760 that I ordered will be a good pair... I wonder if you are quoting my impressions of the MX1? I think that they are as good or even better than my Blox TM7 when it comes to soundstage width and depth, imaging and layering of instruments. However, the TM7 presents a more full sound and overall I'd rank the TM7 over the MX1. Still, I paid $150 in total for my TM7 and about $20 for my MX1...
 ...

Yes, I think it was you.

Sennheiser MX760 shipped today, should receive it in 2-3 weeks.
It's quite ridiculous that I had to pay for it almost twice as much as for the Dasetn M760, which is based on it.
 
Blox BE5 will ship on Friday, should receive it in 3-4 weeks.
 
Dasetn M1/M3/AP8 - still no news since the order, hope they'll ship soon. Should get them in 1-2 weeks after that.

Subbed, can't wait to hear your impressions of the Dasetn earbuds, as I ordered the mx760 mod/M1/M3 myself yesterday.  Should help me deal with the pain of missing the be-5

Weird, I bought M760 to help dull the pain of not having TM7

I love earbuds...and some iems not all 80iems I had...only wish the build quality was as good as iems and now astrotec made an earbud called the lyra which looks like what I want and sound signature is described as natural

At 180$ I doubt it will be a serious competition to Blox and Dasetn lineups.
White Lotus just reviewed them, and they seem to be on a Yuin PK3 level (a 40$ earbud):

I'll see if I get them

When I checked  the order at http://www.dasetn.com/index.php?main_page=account_history I saw that it was posted
with RCxxxxxxxxxHK tracking number, which means that it was posted with HongKong Post.
I paid extra 20$ to use one of the faster shipping options though. Does anyone else have this problem?
Dasetn owes us a refund.

I used the free option and though it got to the states in less than two weeks it took almost a whole other week to go the last one hour drive! Mine was an LN tracking number.

What did you buy?

What did you buy?

I only bought one M760. I haven't written up my impressions yet as out of the box something didn't seem right about the bass so I left them burning in for the last week. I checked in after two days and it seemed to have been tamed but just haven't been able to give a good quality sit down with them.

My "good" one sounded pretty perfect out of the box. The "bad"  one needed a lot of burn-in.
Will be interesting to see your comparisons to PK3 and PK3 DIY.

Pretty interested in the m760 and the pk3. I'll probably pull the trigger on them tonight.

Don't pay for any express shipping, they seem to ship HK Post anyway.

Alright good to know, thanks.
