Earbuds Round-Up
Aug 26, 2019 at 8:52 AM Post #44,236 of 75,861
Okay, I read all the head fi reviews for the ST-10. As usual, reviews are all over the place. The most common comments were that they have a lot of sub bass, and the rest of the spectrum is fairly neutral - kind of an L shape I suppose. Though some said it was rather V shaped. Everything else sounded really good, and several people mentioned that they sound like an open back full sized can... Hmmm... My only concern is fit and comfort. I have small ears. I prefer to use wing tips - or whatever they are called. They fit my ears perfect, and keep the buds in place. I just need them to stay put while running. Can I use wings with these? Still hoping to gather some more recommendations.
Worth mentioning that the ST-10 is supposed to be worn cable-up, which should help them stay in place. I can't comment on the wing tips.

IT would be nice to know the Ohms of this new Fukubukuro -- I am in the market for a 150 OHM or higher, but not a general 30-60, already have too many and nothing beats the Kube at that Ohm-age.

I seriously doubt that they are high ohm because not everyone has a source that can drive them.

Not MX500 style actually.


I would like it to be a little smaller (less bulky) than the ME80 because that one is a bit uncomfortable for me.

I haven't been here for quite awhile as I have been quite satisfied with my Shozy BKs. Decided to jump on the NiceHK Fukubukuro. $9 for hopefully decent sounding buds with a microphone? Sign me up!

I have the prototypes, but not sure I am allowed to show them yet.



Small.

That's a pleasant surprise! I was convinced that it'll be something like ME-80. A smaller design will be a huge plus to me in terms of comfort.

This is actually my first lucky bag purchase ever. I was waiting for the M sized ST-10 that may never come, and was just gonna buy a pair of Bluetooth adapter (BT20s), then I saw this. I tried to resist it by bringing on my self-enforced limiter(Maximum of 7 pairs earbuds in my possession) I know...kinda stupid right, but that's how I keep myself from buying excessive gears.

Minutes later... 'Okay, THESE or A cup of venti cold brew plus a shot of expresso at Starbucks?' You all know what happened. I'm gonna move a set out of my lineup next week (Thinking.. Nuforce Hem1).

I have the same question...
I already asked here if someone could measure the size of the earbuds, and compare with the Yuin shells (16,1 I think).
