Made to order with payment due on completion, shipped from Singapore... sounds likely, yeah.

When you say made to order, does that mean that there are choices to make like cable type etc?

Cable type varies by model and you can select the kind of plug you want from 2.5/3.5/4.4 :) I was talking to Wong just this morning so I've asked about turnaround time anyway, will pass on any info I get back :)

Yup, pump a bit of bass into the **** PT15's, and you have a damn fine earbud. And pretty amazing build quality. And they are practically giving them away :)

I like it for an all rounder. It’s pretty good at everything but not a specialist at anything.

That’s not a bad thing though, but I’d never be satisfied with it as my only bud.

For $8 though... very nice. Probably slightly better than the monk lite overall. But bulkier housing...

Actually that's not true, because for certain durations I can be completely satisfied. For example I happily listened to the graphenes ($29 old) pretty much exclusively for many months, and then (and now) the svara l's.

But, resistance is futile and something else always finds it's way into my ears after a while. Such is my head-fi life lol

Put some bluetooth cables on them, and you have yourself a good balanced sounding wireless buds (a rare sound sig among the cheap buds, especially the wireless ones)

As long as we lurk around here, there's always be "the next purchase" :laughing:

No, after completion/payment, Wong posted mine next day. They were in my ears (in UK) within 10 days! :wink:

Oh how I wish my long lost balanced cable would suddenly show up!

Lol with all these rave about Indonesia tuned earbud made me think if I should hop to Jakarta for a day or two just to audition. We get cheap enough flights from KL..

Is there a central place these earbud can be auditioned? At least the popular one?

try inquire in the E. Anonymous, someone or even a group that got multiple indo buds might hit you up for a meet up.
