Yep he told me that they are discontinued because they need improvement, but I didn't think that he will be so quickly to improve the PK32. So now I'm curious to hear the difference between old and new
My old one had a bass issue so I cannot reliably compare despite having both on hand soon. :frowning2:

On the plus side I can compare to my shozy bk!

wait a couple of days, willy is lending me the new PK32. from what he said it's just a small refinement, but we'll see when it arrives

Remember I told you guys my replacement had a nicer cable than before? Perhaps that's the refinement.

I absolutely love this thicker cable... it's so soft and supple...

Edit: Sadly, still no working camera... :frowning2:

We're beginning to believe it's a figment of your imagination :p

I'll take a picture of both pk32's once I get them and you can tell me if I have the same updated cable as yours.

speaking of researching, i was discussing with willy to make a short balanced MK3 for my ES100, and he sent me the newest batch of MK1, MK2, MK3, and also the 300ohm. I used to have the 300ohm, but there's something about them that was off for me, some of them for the lack of bass with thin foams, but too warm mids and veiled treble with thicker foams...so it's a bit of a conundrum there..to say it bluntly, the 300ohm was my least favorite Willsound.
so when i opened the package, i was reluctant and decided to listen to it the last; MK1,MK2, MK3, briliant as always.. but then i put on the 300: and suddenly it's up there with the PK32 as my most favorite Willsound.
good amount of bass even with thin foams, clear mids and treble, with overall balanced presentation, deeper soundstage than the PK32 (although the PK32 is still the willsound king of stereo width), and overall cleaner sound than the MKs. definitely recommending this version of 300ohm. an auto buy for me

Very interesting - thanks. Assuming I also get the PK32 or maybe the 300 one of these days, I will probably also opt for the balanced cable version.

Btw, the ES100 now supports LDAC :)

Hah! I already know! (well, from your post on the ES100 thread :beyersmile::beyersmile:)

I guess this "small refinement" changement is probably due to the new cable?

Too bad we got finally already a rev2 of PK32, because as a previous source Willy said there won't be anymore rev2 for each of its products :frowning2:
I feel like my new PK32 is already "has-been".

The new batch of PK32 has white foam under the shell vents while mine is actually black.

Now we’re currently not sure which was the refinement as Willy does mix and match parts as he deems fit. My MK1 Rev.2 comes with the original PK32 cables and not red, but he claims they should sound the same.
