That's really odd to me because the bk is by far one of the most full sounding buds ives heard.

Were you using the stock foams?

Yeah, I was. The detail was there, but it sounded thinner than monks. Sent it back to Amazon the next day.

I'd sooner recommend something else. The later bk I got was wholely unimpressive for the price. It was merely good but I prefered many cheaper options.

It seems when anyone brings up HD600/HD650 in this thread the most common recs seem to be the higher impedance earbuds like

Ks 600
Yinman 600
Ty HP-650
Maybe Toneking TO600?

These buds (well the few I've tried) are not THAT hard to drive despite the impedance. Any half decent amp or resonably powerful portable dap should do.

I found my modded kube earbud remarkably smooth full and neutral. It sounded like a full size open back. That was $8...

I don't own the hd600 but listening to a few other headphones, and my vintage hd540ii. Thats the best advice i can give you, but others who own the 600 may have some better suggestions.

@seanc6441 Sean just bought the last pair of Kube V1 (in white). I have been mostly into open headphones lately (got a pair of HD558 & Grado SR80e) a few months back. I'm getting back into budget earbuds game from your impressions of the Kube. I hope the signature doesn't stray too far off from the SHE3800 which is my favorite pair (a bit more clarity and less loose bass would be nice).

Has anyone heard of these, i am shaking with excitement, looks like exactly what i have been hoping for

I spotted them on a post in e. a. page of facebook

 

[snip3r77]

No because it's 32ohm?

I mean value high ohm

 

[mbwilson111]

32 ohm is not high ohm for buds. It is average.

I really like the look of that earbud. Seems like it was designed with thought.

Open back + interesting design + mmcx? Sign me up.

 

[Marcos Fontana]

Nope. It was listed as $119 ( = RMB799) on Taobao store when I got mine.

Yes, you are right. They were in sale for $85. Normal price is $119. I will be waiting for the sale again.

$108 on taobao, does look pretty tempting metal construction and mmcx, 400ohm dual driver.. .

What is an upgrade to sl 1.0+ ce in terms of clarity, seperation and imaging around 30 usd ?

I would like recommend Willsound MK2 for you.

It's a single driver according to someone i asked but do the specs say dual driver??

 

[seanc6441]

Not sure if it's an upgrade in clarity/separation and I definitely think the imaging is not better. It's got better bass impact and extension. That's about it IMO.

To my ears the rest is just a slightly different sound sig but not better quality. Although that's just my opinion.

The mk2 has a slightly more energetic midrange, the sl 1.0+ has slightly better treble air and sparkle.

As far as i understand its a dual driver.

 

[seanc6441]

As far as i understand its a dual driver.

Looking at the design thats what i thought, i was corrected by someone on earbuds anonymous group. Whether that info was good or not IDK.

The design suggests 2 drivers, but then I thought maybe its just extra cavity space for tuning.

Wish these were listed on aliexpress to buy.

Yea, either way they look really interesting, hope they come to AE

How does the Willsound MKII compare with Yincrow RW-9?
Does it complement it in any way or redundant?

Listening to John Maus with LG v30 and Yincrow RW-9, Not sure if it could sound any better!
