keep update

  Sir golov17 may I kindly know what do you think about the Fareal Earbuds which you currently own? (The white earbud with blue cable which you posted in ELI)

How does it compare to the monk+?

Thank-you

 
I'm not golov17, but I like to think I channel his inner spirit.  

I also have those Fareal Earbuds (https://world.taobao.com/item/39799975846.htm) that you just asked about, on the way to me.  I hope to have them in about a week or so, I will be posting up my impressions then. 

I'm going to compare the:  Monk, Monk Plus, Suvov S20, Fareal, Eli Bud and any other budget earbuds that get to me in that time.  All of which are currently heading to me from all over the globe.  It is like that scene from "War Games", tracking all those missiles coming at the US.
 
 
Earbuds Inbound!

Nice finds!  

I must say, that first link looks a lot like a Seahf spin off.  

The site:  https://shop147984684.world.taobao.com/ comes with the same ‎‎Ω options and cables that Seahf has, but who knows!

The earbud is made by seahf. It even appeared on SeaHf's Teiba Baidu. However, the low impedance SeaHf seems to be only available via the particular which I haved linked you too. 

I believe that the 400Ohms earbuds which you see on Taobao are all by SeaHf despite different seller names. (Maybe they have differnt tunning, who knows)

Then how does the Fareal sound?

I have both fareal bud. May be it could help a little.
The black one said that it has monk old batch driver (red mark monk) and produced by same production house. I don't have old monk. But my friend said that it's pretty similar (he has both old&new monk, and both fareal too). Compared to ordinary monk, it has thicker vocal, deeper bass, but less staging&detail.
While the blue one is brighter. Better detail and crisp treble, slightly thin vocal. A little bit peaky sometimes. Leaner bass but better control and impact.

Black one is omnivorous. Blue one, in my opinion, better for agressive song (metal,punk,etc).

Oh Thanks for the info! That is really helpful.
Would you say the White blue Faareal is like a DIY Dual Driver?

How is the soundstage on both?

Dual driver has better soundstage and clarity

Hmm, I might go looking for an inexpensive 400 ohm on AliExpress. I've been pretty curious about the 400 ohm SeaHf's for a little while now, especially now that I have the Zen 2 and know how good it is
 
I may sell my Zen 2 one day, but it would only be to buy a black edition Zen2

oh I see I see. Hmm, might just purchase one to try out hahaha

Ok, I do think I know that actual story behind VE vs. SeaHF but I have promised someone that I won't share it. I can however tell you that the story you know isn't the whole story (and certainly not the popular version people are referring over the Chinese forum) as it is a bit more complicated than that. Just want to mention it here so rumor won't spread further than it already has.

Hey Clie, can you give a comparison between the Dual Matrix Driver buds and the Rose Mojito? They both sound like very similar types of buds from your descriptions, they are both, airy large soundstage neutral/light bass top tier buds. But any more info? I want to decide if I should buy the "budget Rose" (aka the Dual Driver) or the Rose itself.

I've been curious about the dual driver's sound, I wouldn't call the mojito bass light unless the fit is bad though. Then again I always have a bass boost EQ on.

At $29 it is the highest sub $30 earbud ranked next to a sea of $70-$150 buds, so I am definitely interested in picking up a set, I just need to know if it is bass light or not.
