K's 500 v2 has a warm, full and energetic sound with good end-to-end reach, pretty much spot on for mainstream music. In contrast BK is warm tilting toward neutral, and overall more smooth, mature and relax. While I still prefer BK overall, the difference is really small. For example, there are a few who said they think BK is a bit too neutral for their taste - I would think K's 500 v2 might be just their cup of tea.

Okay thank you, I'll definitely look into the K500. Any words on how it compares to the Masya?

For me, the differences are so insignificant that there is no way to justify the difference in prices, IMHO
Manufacturer SATOREX, according to some information.

So they are the same drivers??
Do the pk2 sound the same as the Cygnus?

@audio123 : I see you also have the TY Hi-Z HP 400 SE and the TY Hi-Z HP 650... Can you compare them to Rose Masya, in a few words, please ?

650 is totl earbud. it is the best earbud in my opinion way better than masya.

So, the Cygnus sound similar to the pk2 though? Or are much better?

What you're saying, is that you're paying for the cable not nos Cygnus drivers?

The great thing about Masya is that it has a very versatile sound that can cover a wide range of music, though it might not have a particularly outstanding genre. In contrast, K's 500 v2 is more toward mainstream. Beyond that, I'll say they are close in overall SQ though I'll give K's 500 v2 a very slight edge.

I measured both Cygnus, Docomo as well as NiceHCK's DIY PK2. The later two are almost identical in FR curve, suggesting NickHCK has probably recabled the Docomo (which comes only with very short cable). Cygnus actually also share very similar FR curve, but somehow showing a few dB more sensitivity. My guess is that the driver is likely also from Docomo, bit Shozy's choice of cable make a slightly more noticeable difference im tuning.

Can I still buy a pair of the docomo?

Sure, there are some left on Taobao. However, you will need to recable it, so might as well get the DIY PK2 instead.
