I agree - I guess the tension of the cable is key to wearing them with no adjustments.....it will be interesting to hear your take on EB2 compared to Ling for comfort!
....BS1 were another "almost" buy - would have loved to have heard jazz etc on them - but the heavy/fatiguing cable seemed like a deal-breaker!

BS1 has a phenomenal tuning until the sub bass, but if you weren't opposed to bumping the bass by like 2-4db wow what a threat that earbud is, I can only fault one little peak at 4khz (only because the v20/30 is bright) and other than that its wonderfully smooth and has more detail than almost all the $100 earbuds, infact its got more detail than the bk in some places.

Waiting to find a 15mm driver compatible shell to transplant the driver, make a lighter copper and silver plated cable for it and ill use it daily.

Looking at the picture, the cable on EB2 could be stiff like heck in a few months. What do you guys reckon?

Depends on how the material reacts to oil, hard to say without testing

NiceHCK EB2 up on the taobao page, though I really want the EBX instead. Is the fit for EBX that finicky or is it 50/50? I might get the little brother just because of the seemingly better fit

How much is it in US dollars on that site?

Silver look uber cool! - they seem extremely cheap...maybe the Yen conversion to £ is wrong?

Approx $30US, correct? If so, that's cheap, but not as cheap as when they were available as Fukabubbabro's!

Never in a month of Sundays!

- I probably used the wrong conversion then! lolz (not used taobao before.)

Showing $30 for me on taoboa. The silver looks great and the black looks almost as good especially with the cover being black. I'll be happy with either tbh. Loving the cable design too, slick smooth finish.

..and very soft and flexible. Love the black that I got. I wonder if both colors are being sent randomly.

Maybe I'll opt for Rosemary instead - whilst waiting for the silver 2.5mm balanced release of EB2.

yup, 30 bux-ish. If its really just a step-down to the EBX, still quite good value. Some might prefer spending the extra 10 bux after reviews are out rather than gamble on the 20 bux pre-order. I know I'm considering it.

I partly did it because I enjoyed the mystery and suspense
