OK further analysis of Penon bs1 official vs K's samsara. Ok so the BS1 has more clarity and resolution and a wider sound stage. The BS1 losses a slight bit of warmth compared to the Samsara. The layering of the BS1 is better than the Samsara as you can pick out details more easily. Things that are distant sound as such and are still very detailed where as with the samsara some of these finer details are smoothed over.

Some drawbacks the metal part on the wire that separates the wires to left and right channels is heavy and pulls the earbuds loose sometimes, they give you a clip to counter this. The other drawback is the housing area that you can grab with your fingers is really small so can be a little hard to get a grip on the bud to get it positioned in your ear. These are just design nitpicks but hey just letting yah know.

So far very pleased with these buds. Best build quality iv seen on a bud thus far and the sound matches its build quality Penon hit a home run on these.

Fyi, just got the "new" graphenes and plopped them in my ears (directly after listening to the old graphenes). I'm not in critical listening mode at the moment, and I'll be trying different foams than the full foams that were already on them, and I'm gonna let them burn in for a bit. But first impressions: there is nothing at all repulsive about them!

ok let me know what u feel about them...i feel that they do not have the top down articulation or the details of the R4YS and EMx500. however what they win over is soundstage, and transparency .

So, is it possible to ask @golov17 to instruct them to make another batch for headfi forums?

I really love bio-cell diaphragm!

Nice. I get my BS1 on Friday. Hopefully DHL does not mess up the delivery like they usually do.

I have the AKG flagship earbud K319 which is discontinued and love its sound. I like to update to a new earbud and the sound must be like the AKG319 but with more bass, any recommendation?

i like to change the view of R4YS.. earlier i said i preferred the sound of the EMX500.. but now after plugging int he R4YS i feel it managed to walk all over the EMX500.

R4YS should be the top 3 budget king now

You can try changing the rubber rings for a better fit

You mean change the rubber rings more bass come out. I don't have the rubber rings. Can you also recommend a new model ear bud that got it sound but better bass

 

[RodRevenge]

I guess you mean the same earbud RodRevenge talked about few pages back?

Yup that one, great bud, it's not warm in my ears but still has a great bass, really satisfying and it doesnt get in the way, separation is good it gets the job done even with my prog/extreme metal. Sadly i see the treble being harsh for some people, i advice you to try them since it is pretty cheap ($6USD).

AKG K319 is pretty unique and you will not find anything that sounds exactly the same. However, I think you might like Yincrow RW-777. It has got a similar type of sound to that of K319. Big soundstage and great details. I do find the bass of RW-777 to be slightly better defined and textured than K319. However I am comparing from memory since I sold my K319 about 1 year ago. I usually prefer a more full and warm sound but Yincrow RW-777 has amazed me with it's soundstage and instrument layering. You can buy them from Ali express for around $45-50...

BS1 official sounds incredible! cable slightly heavy like the others have mention, not a problem if you're not moving around too much, might grab a get a 2nd pair.

Also did not expect the cable to be so soft!

Last news.. so sad

Wohoo! That saves me $25-30! (well, you need to see it in a positive way) Also I am fighting myself to NOT buy Penon BS1 official. I have my eye on Crow Audio Raven mk 2 but will not buy it for another month or two. So I might miss it since it's a very limited release.

I would like that @ClieOS checked them..
