Wow, thanks for all the replies.
@DBaldock9 thank you, added the Mantis C7 to my order.
@ozkan and @barbazz I'll probably pick up some SHE3800 when I figure out how mistertao works.
@Ira Delphic totally forgot to mention, listening is split between Nexus5x (Spotify/extreme quality) and my PC with a Essence STX II soundcard (a few flac albums and Spotify). I probably should've mentioned that I'm perfectly happy with the Monk, Qian39 and TP16, I don't need that much bass. Just have the urge to try more stuff.
@flamesofarctica That sounds great, going to keep both the MX98s and DIY unnamed in my order then! I'd probably need a better mobile source to really make use of the Asura.
@tinkertailor Removed the Faaeal for now, might give the Qian25 a listen again sometime and see if I'm still up for it.
And I just placed the order, I'll report back in a few weeks. Thanks again!

@flamesofarctica
more words on k's 300 please? does it has the same upper mid weirdness as k's 64?
@vapman and @ballog - I'll do some further listening today & report back in a bit more detail.. haven't spotted any weirdness as such but I'll admit I only spent one evening listening to K's 64 and considered that their one chance to 'Kill Monk' (they didn't even maim Monk
@msdos - you don't need to mess with mistertao to get the SHE3800, there's a specific site I think everyone has used for that - fasttech.com. Re the Asura 2, it responds fantastic to a bit of power, but doesn't demand it to sound great.
Well, CampFred is a big step up in every category. But considering the price difference it should be...
In my pair of TY32 (version 1) sub bass is good but covered up by a somewhat flabby mid bass.
Still, the straight plug TY32 have really good sub bass for an earbud. Especially a $5 earbud.
thanks, as a matter of fact just snatched the TY32 straight jack, waiting for delivery. gonna compare them to my TY32S
Enjoy the Diomnes amazing earbud. Will never part with mine.
Thanks! it just arrived from the mail, time for some testing. with these three, i think i'm satisfied (for now at least )

I have to ask did you do it yourself or did you buy it like that?
there was no rhodium plug available when i bought mine.
i love the sound of mine but it is just a switchcraft or neutrik silver 3.5mm covered in heatshrink on mine, so nothing too special.
you tempt me to replace my demun's jack sir!!!!!

just curious does anyone know of any recabled senn mx170's ?
I found an image on instagram when searching but it gave up no info, and was probably a self diy...
I keep imagining that they would sound better with monk candy cables or some cygnus cables, or just some thicker oxygen free copper
if it exists I guess they would be like the mx760's that sometimes pop up on ali...

MEMT X3 earbud: QC issues from the start, considering I actually managed to cut myself on the earbud. Gotta say that's a first.

I have a K319 and really loved the midrange clarity and treble especially the treble quality/quantity. It puts both my Monk/Monk+ to shame. I need something which sounds similar or better than K319 because they are my friend's earbuds.
Can you share the thread's link please?
