Earbuds Round-Up

You may want to give what sound sig you prefer as a reference point. Going by Vido & Smart 1.0 I'm assuming you enjoy bass.

My sound preference should be petty obvious by now. Pay attention please! :wink:

The user that I answered sent a DM to me asking for advice about the buds so I suppose the user already knew.

To avoid misunderstanding. I enjoy bass quality, not bass quantity. Hence Seahf over TI Hi-Z every time. Vido because they are the cheapest you can get, that are all around decent.

Just saying for public recommendations, a reference point of such nature is more helpful than you think. If anything, someone new to the thread might be reading for the first time and it could prove useful.

I only have the H180 and H185 and honestly, they sound almost exactly alike. H180 might have a slight edge on sspaciousness (probably due to shell design). I'm curious about the H190 because from their description, it's their pro model. I got those for 11.11 on a nice discount today.

I do like the look of that H190. Tempted to have Amazon bring me one tomorrow... have not found any info about the sound.

Prefer the H185 look myself, but I don't remember if I've bought it or not... I don't think so, but sometimes it's hard to keep track. I'll have to dig through the drawers to see.

Remember? I said I will be back on 11.11. and here I am again. Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening gentlemen. Any thoughts on Moondrop Liebesleid?


Hiiii!!!

How's it going?

I've got many thought on Moondrop Liebesleid. But I do not dare to say them out loud...
Too many expensive TOTL earbuds bought the last 2-3 years for me.

Hi,
Neutral earbuds with big and deep soundstage for ambient, movie scores and classical music? Soundmagic EP30 are too thin and Monk+ are too warm

What's your budget?

Yincrow RW-777 might be a good option. It's usually around $45-50 from Aliexpress but I think it's around $37-38 on the 11.11 sale. It is fairly neutral and has got quite a good and deep soundstage.

This is why you should have a complete updated list at all times! lol How many drawers full are there? :)

If I had to guess at currently earbud count, 90 sounds realistic.

not sure I should put a like on that :)

One of these days I'll sort through what's worth keeping, what isn't, and probably start offering to give away to those new to the hobby to try something.

Then again, at least the MX985 I should trade off one day.

Shozy BK is in another league than Graphene. In comparaison, I found the sound of Graphene very thin and light, not consistent enough...

Moreover BK has an organic texture that does not have the other one. Same kind of signature but not same sound and sound quality, for me (I bought and resold the graphene).

You can also talk about fit, cable and finition : no debate at all!!

But, Graphene costs just 20$ : a steal for this quality. BK is 165$, it’s a too big price for most people.

There should be enough people here to share the load, it's OK to say "I don't know about that item, maybe someone else who does know will be able to answer." When you've already tried to help there is no need to feel bad if you can't do more :)

The answer to his question of how cables are different will only be available to the store at that point.
The answer to this question will not be able to be replaced by another head-fi member.

Did not you think that it was strange that he asked other members about such questions (without asking the store himself)?
Did not you think it was strange not to "like" the best answer to that (choose the one you like the most)?
I thought that if he kept it like this his way of asking questions would not change.

I think that these attitudes made me irritable.
