Do standard sharp md have big jump different with recabled one? I want to try standard before going to recable, how it to compare with vido?

Quite a jump. the stock is no slouch either though, just warmer, while the recabled one ks clearer sounding. try the stock one first. vido and sharp md has different sound signature

Wow what are these manufacturers smoking! What an an insane price for a bud with generic shell!
Guess we are seeing the result of the surge in popularity of earbuds and the (over)hype of TOTL ones.

Fixed the picture for you.

I already post my impression of it a couple of pages ago, check it out. It might look pretty ordinary, it does however sound pretty extraordinary.

Thank you, however I have no clue how to use those.

Yes. They stay in my ear and don't fall out, but I can't push them "deep" into the ear if you know what I mean.

My balanced mmcx has arrived, and i tested some of my IEMs and earbuds with the ES100.
the **** PT15 and Svara-L really have noticable improvement. The soundstage seems wider because separation of instruments are more clear, and bass also more focused and bigger sounding. waynes world, you need this cable!

Fixed that for you! Please provide a link if possible. Thanks!​

Ordered direct from VE, that's China to Ireland in like 10 days. They have their crap together. Have the black donut foams on as the full foams don't even want to attempt to go on the things, much less stay on. JFC, I do not have the motor skills for applying those hahahah

I've been using a VE Espresso 2.5mm TRRS > MMCX cable (I have replaced the MMCX connectors), for my various earbuds and earphones, while connected to my ES100.
The standard length (1.2m) cable is fine for when I'm using the ES100 as a USB DAC, but I'm probably going to assemble some shorter cables (MMCX & 2-pin) - for when I'm using the ES100 as a BT Receiver.
The PT15 (~$9), VE Espresso (~$13), and ES100 ($99) - make a great sounding budget Balanced BT HD listening set-up.

I've also listened to my Svara-L (115Ω) using the ES100, and they sound good. One thing I'm thinking about trying, is to use the EarStudio app, and adjust the Treble up a bit for the Svara-L - to see what it does for details and sound stage.

@chinmie i just noticed you have ifi earbuddy , is that need huge power to drive an 32ohm earbud? in next time im planning to get it soon for pair it with my fiio x5 1st and direct it with my buds without an amp but im still doubt my x5 would drive my earbud with earbuddy properly.
currently with my x5 could drive my earbud (most 32ohm) with vol 65/120
