Rose Masya Pro Dual Dynamic Driver

Nice find. BTW I read about the upcoming Mojito Pro as well, also a dual driver setup but featuring a massive 20mm bass driver. Prototype seems to begin to appear in China with an unconfirmed price going over USD$500.

Isn’t the titanium Ling any better?

I somehow remembered that whenever a new ling comes out, the old ling got discounted! So I would hold my horse until 11.11!
How would you know if there's only ever been one generation of Ling earbuds so far? The ling and samsara got a discount during the last 11.11 but there was no mention of a new product at the time so I think it's just a normal sale discount not a stock clearout.

You were right it has a new tuning according to penon. 'Condensed' and deeper bass. Improved overall resolution.

Also the woodgrain looks better this time round and hopefully the build quality of the plastic is improved.

About the new mojito that is a very ambitiously priced but 20mm drivers is insane so it could be the new ultra high resolution bud like the last mojito was!

I just got the ZoomFred. After 10 mins: The bass is deep, really really great quality, how should I put it? Vast? its not overpowering its just right.

The highs do indeed need to smooth out, but they should do so after some burn in

Will report with a full review after a few weeks :D
Are you using the stock foams and are they regular full foams?

I see it (Masya 2) has an 89ohm rating, which is good. I find that that I like the 50-100 ohm rating when coming out of my DAPs at high gain. Pushing the dap a bit and trying to get in the groove zone. One thing with the old Mojito and Masya’s, is they didn’t really improve when pushing it with an amp and I kind of liked them better with just a dap. Hopefully these will muscle up better. I don’t want to spend $500 dollars for a new Mojito though. I’ll have to see some reviews first and try to get a super deal for me to pull the trigger...

Where are you seeing 89 ohm? On penon audio its 16 ohm and 10 ohm.

I wouldn't want to spend 500 on the mojito pro unless the frequency response is considerably more linear than the first which has too much of a mid bass bump, vocal range dip and upper treble bump to sound smooth and coherant. A heavily EQ'ed mojito sounds amazing but if I'm spending 500 id want it to be a flavour closer to neutral not a very contrasting M shape sig.
