Mojito pro =-O , $500 =-O

Seems to be a trend for new TOTLS announced... It's going the route of high end IEM's it seems.

No way am I spending that much. There are many really good earbuds out there for way less than half that much

Fixed that for ya (well, at least that's what I'm going to try to keep telling myself lol)

Yep, that was me about 2 years ago...

I think restraint is key here xD

The emx500 are really good earbuds for $15. Some people would be shocked at the thought of spending $100 on earbuds. This is no different I guess. Some can afford it others will save up to buy them because they feel its worth it

Some won't ever be able to justify spending that much on earbuds!

I could get 2 blurs for less than £500! I'm only kidding, if those mojitos end up being raved about by everyone I'd probably consider them.

Yeah but you could get like 30 VE monks for the price of the blur!

Granted we still dont know if these earbuds will sound $500 so the jury is still out on them and others in that price range for now.

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.

Ooops, you're right. I F*d that one. Nevermind.

Been out of the earbuds game for about a year. Fun to see how much has changed since I stepped back for a while.

Seems to be a lot of mentions of the EMX500. Can anyone recommend a good AliExpress seller for them? Also thinking I'll try the Datura-X and the K's 300 (non-Samsara).

You should get the TM9

What would be your choice at $150 with trrs?

 

[DAndrew]

Are you using the stock foams and are they regular full foams?

Herry actually recommends using them without foam ( I agree that they dont really need foams to bring out the bass ) but I still put the stock foams on it to keep them clean basically lol.

Yeah they seem indeed to be regular full foams, but they resemble VE foams quality wise

Is it as warm as Vidos?

I don't know what Vidos is.
