I bought this lucky bag, but have yet to receive it. Hopefully it will be this earbud, since it now shows up when I hit the link to my purchase.
Let me hear your quick impression on it after it arrived.

Changed the cable that came with my Toneking TO600 for a copper 6 core balanced 2.5mm jack, earphone has come alive and I am absolutely loving them

Jelly.

These finally showed up from 11.11

Played around with some spare silicone airpod covers I had laying around. Cut the tip off to see if the slight overlap caused any change of sound. It doesn't.


Initial 5 minute impression: clean, balanced/neutral sound and not much bass/sub-bass. It's there if I press them into my ears to seal like an IEM. If I cover the 3 ports on the back of the bud all bass goes away.

Very interesting shape, I assume you got these from Aliexpress?

The TO600 sounds like a fuller more mature earbud than the TO400

Had the ToneKing TO600 in my AliExpress Shopping Cart, and was also wanting a Moondrop Kanas Pro, but I'll have to wait a while.
The yard tractor / mower of my oldest uncle (he's 82), has worn out.
So my other uncle has contacted all of us nieces & nephews, to see if we'd pitch in with him, to get a new mower for his brother.
Even with his 10% discount (buying from a friend's shop), it's going to be ~$385 each for a new Cub Cadet lawn tractor.
I guess it'll be sometime after the first of the year, when I can order the TO600 earbuds.

Fitted up my TO600's with these lovely 8-core, 2.5mm balanced cables from NiceHCK plugged to my desktop amp.
I have to say, I'm astounded at how good these sound.

But they are really power hungry though. I need to set my amp to volumes that are almost comparable to my HD6XX for these.
