I already have **** PT15 which is very warm and more fun but clearly not the same quality

That's interesting - I find them to be more on the bright side and lighter on the bass.

Pt15 ? Than smabat?

I was referring to the PT15. I haven't heard the Smabat.

I guess I am just surprised that you are calling the PT15's "very warm" when I generally find them to be brighter than most of my earbuds (I'd better give them another listen though to make sure that I don't need to eat my words lol).

I refer to my iem collectio, I really have little experienceb on earbuds. PT15 seems similar than eb2 that I lost, I can't compare, but in comparison of my iem and smabat they are clearly warm but very good for the price

Yes, they are very good for the price.

A nice friend over at Earbuds Anonymous offered to convert one of my JVC earbuds to a MMCX connection. With some experimentation and hard work, I think it turned out great!

Such a fun sound and now functional cord (the stock J cable was WAY too short).

BTW, does anyone know of anyone else in the USA who can modify earbuds? I do not have the skills or equipment to do it.

I was looking at my Kube and Sabia orders tonight (they shipped yesterday) and I noticed that the seller has added more Sabias to the listing... so now the Pearl, Rose and Standard are available... a few of each. He also has a few of the ANN200. Not many Kubes left...only black or white.

Would you mind linking me that listing? Or the sellers page even

The names are just colour variation right? They sound the same?

If they're cheap enough I might grab one out of curiosity.

The problem with finding them on ebay is that you have to use ebay.com... searching others like ebay.co.uk comes up empty

The Sabia listing is here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Elibuds-Sa...hash=item3408fbcb3d:m:mtylfDp3hmZXM3HpFU7nsoQ

The difference is the cable. I have the Pearl and love it. Rose is on the way. When people first started recommending the Sabia they were talking about the Standard.

He explains the differences that the cables make.

The ANN200 is here : https://www.ebay.com/itm/Earbud-ANN200-Earphone-Unique-MX500-Shell-Classic-Sound/223489031746?_trkparms=aid=111001&algo=REC.SEED&ao=1&asc=20160811114145&meid=eb4133cb95c7439b94b13ed879b74529&pid=100667&rk=2&rkt=8&sd=223489018685&itm=223489031746&_trksid=p2045573.c100667.m2042

Just search for EarKube to find the Kubes. I hope he will offer the colors again.

That's brilliant thanks. Might get the pearl or rose since the cable looks much nicer for only a few euros extra.

Ideally the mmcx version would've suited but its out of stock.

The ann200 shell looks incredible. Love the stoney(?) finish.

I'm in agreement with Wayne, both the PT15 and the EB2 I find to be on the brighter side.

@TechnoidFR - you must be the first person to say that the PT15 is both warm and fun sounding on this thread. I guess we all hear differently.
