Earbuds Round-Up

That's about 78usd. Which is the price most of the stores are listing, or some say 80+usd. I think the 11.11 price was the same, they just discounted it slightly early.

$68 is quite cheap then. I'll link it incase anyone is interested.

If your link is to the CK Lewis store, I was looking at the TO600 in their store yesterday.
Here's the regular link - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...Impedance-Earphone-With-MMCX/32917530109.html
On thing I will say, from past experience ordering from CK Lewis - they aren't the quickest shop to process & ship orders, and I had to wait a while to receive the items I bought (kind of like when ordering from HotFi Earphone & Headphone store).

Thanks for the info! Yeah I'm cool with slow shipping, have way to much buds to enjoy and others to diy mod while I wait :)

I've just received a Vidos from @Carrow

These are lovely little buds.
After a little A/B/C'ing with the Kube V1 and Sabia V6 I'm quite confident in saying it lies between the two in tonality.

Kube V1 is the darkest, with the most subdued treble (not to be mistaken for a lack of detail) - kinda like an hd650
Vidos has the most even (neutral'ish/v-shaped) sound between treble and bass. - Kinda like a decent studio monitor tuning or DJ headphone(? ... sorry, that's quite abstract ^_^)
Sabia V6 is just fun with emphasised bass, treble and upper mids. - kinda like an HA-DX1000

It's been a while since I listened to my Vidos, but I just did some abc'ing of the above as well.

For me, the Vidos are the darkest and with the most subdued treble. Maybe there are differences amongst the Vidos and the Kube1's? Or maybe we are using different foams? Or maybe I just don't know that I'm talking about lol?

I also I threw the Kube2's into the mix, and to me they then become the darkest of the lot with the most subdued treble.

The Kube1's and Sabia V6's seem to tickle my amygdala the most, but man, they are all great.

Edit: I just tried some different foams on the Kube2's, and have been tripping out with them pretty well, so they also tickle my amygdala nicely. I previously told mbwilson111 that the kube2's are similar in signature to the Nighthawks, which is a good thing if you love the Nighthawks.

Maybe they're being delivered by routing from the East, so it's an extra week or two, for things to reach Houston... :ksc75smile:

Here in Houston, TX, connecting to AliExpress is working just fine.
Is that a display from the AliExpress mobile app?
If it's from a web browser, have you tried clearing the cache & cookies, and reloading the site?

Panic over, it's working again.

It was on my laptop browser. I don't like deleting cookies if I can avoid it. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

^ There were only 13 or 14 left when I ordered mine almost 24h ago. Also have the DIY PK SR2 16ohmsomethings somethings and a bunch of foams incoming.

Question to those who have heard a legit Sony MH1/75x: which earbud sounds the closest from mids to treble?

Looking at you @Willber

Guys, is there something similar to Shozy Cygnus but cheaper? I think Cygnus is the only thing I regret selling :/.
Yes, docomo stock is what the cygnus is based off, but i believe it's tuned slightly brighter (the cygnus).

How about the shozy XB?

I have 1 single working cygnus driver, 2 shells and the green oxidized cable.

I have a few spare pk buds and more docomos arriving. I should try to make the cygnus from those. I'll use the original driver as a tuning reference!

I miss the cygnus too. Awesome sleeping bud. Amazing for podcasts/audiobooks too. Vocals sound so good on them.
