Of course not. That's just the pre-order price and you will have to pay in full when it is ready to ship. The final price however has not been revealed yet. K's does take custom order for plug, you just need to ask them before placing order.

Guess what just arrived?
I gave it a brief listening and put it to burn-in now. Sufficed to say it is very similar to EBX's tuning and at least >85% of its SQ. Build quality is pretty good as well - metal housing but it is quite light. This is another keeper.
85% for 1/4 of EBX price ? damn, looks quite interesting Q/P ratio!
btw, are they maybe a Datura-X killer ?

Have the Datura X as well, I'll say EB2 impressed me more on the first listen.
According to NiceHCK, this particular model is priced for higher sale volume rather than higher individual margin, hence the good value.

I couldn't agree more!!! ...spent the day burning them in yesterday. I felt kind of underwhelmed initially (...I think they need EQ'ing to really shine imho!) - Suffice to say I'm extremely impressed with them now.....an absolute bargain!!!!!

Datura-X - glad I managed to avoid them - I'm a big fan of Faaeal (snow lotus / narcissus 2.0) - however EB2 is in another league imo!!!85% for 1/4 of EBX price ? damn, looks quite interesting Q/P ratio!

Regarding comfort I think you'll be amazed with the EB2....definitely the new "go to" (sleep wearing them lol!) - i.e. very compact indeed - the shells hardly protrude at all! And considering they have metal housings, they're incredibly light!! - an all round winner in my opinion...enjoy!!!

But a less happy wallet. I was hoping to sell some of the buds I have but no luck, I guess the resell market is pretty weak for eabuds
You still selling the same models we discussed a while back? I might be interested in those or others you might be selling, send me a wee pm if you like.

Wow what a thread!
my yuins and tingos are broke, i'm a bit rough on these.
any suggestions for a rugged earbud? with good build quality and cable. low impedance for smartphone/tablet. under $30 preferably

I'm rather lucky living in earbud loving country. although the TOTL ones still gonna take a dive in resale value, especially if it's not hyped enough
