I've received SR2 16ohms today. I hope you're right about burn in because after 2 hours of playtime it still sounds horrible Cable is thin like hair and the finish of the shell is quite rough. Only the sound could save this purchase so far

Are you using the foams on them?

Are you using the foams on them?

Yes the full foam provided with the earbud. Right now it's midcentric with quite a bit of sibilance, muddy and without any real bass. I hope it will sound better tomorrow.

By the way, I've also received a diy MX760 set which is excellent. At the moment I don't have any additional tuning on it, just the set plus a cable and trig rain foams. It is a very clean and detailed bud, lean and realistic but somewhat bright (somewhere between Qan69 and RY4S UE). Sounds like a smoother more linear, slightly thinner/brighter qian69. Bass is decent but not abundant, depth is similar to qian69 but with less punch/warmth. Soundstage is very nice too. Mids are clean, not messy like qian69, though a bit bright. The vocals are smooth and almost natural but a bit too thin, maybe some additional tuning would help. Highs are crystal clear but not overly bright (less extended than ry4s ue, slightly more than qian69). Excellent for prog rock like plini or vocal/acoustic/classical music in general.The shell is very small and comfortable, almost as comfy as qian39. Overall it has great potential especially for a 5usd small shell bud, though I feel the need to play with tuning foams a bit more to get the most out of it. For brightness lovers it's awesome already, I personally would like a bit more warmth/bass at this stage but it's still one of the better sounding buds I have at the moment

I know earbuds are weak in bass teritory but maybe there is hidden gem with super strong bass and sub bass?

You should try kube V1 v2 , BBB v1 v2 v2.5

WillSound MK32 for now

Willsound or NiceHCK ME-80

All great suggestions. Also I would throw in the Sabia V6 or V7 into the mix for great bass.

+1 Sabia V6, nice bass indeed.

Any tips about how to improve earbuds fit?

I notice many of the buds I own do have good bass (as St10 and Masya for example) but are very fit dependent (at least in my case)... so I can enjoy them at home standing still but as soon as I start walking they change position and most of the seal is lost, resulting in light bass...

I thought of trying to use ear hooks or something like that... or maybe using double foams (which I never really tried)...
Any guidance?

You must try double foams (donuts foam on full foam) which way I really am adopting when I listen with St10 and Mojito.

I asked a few days ago but maybe you can answer. Are there any huge differences between the Sabia V6 and V7. I was listening to my V6 the other day, and as you know, it is a great, fun experience. Wouldn't mind having another pair or "advancement" of that sound signature.

I will provide my thoughts tomorrow. Do you have the V6 or V6 Pearl?

I have the V6 Pearl.

 

[jogawag]

I have the V6 Pearl.

Please tell me which earbuds sound most like the Sabia V6 Pearl.

 

[seanc6441]

Yes, $59 for "old friends". Gulp!

Yincrow RW-1000: carbon fiber diaphragm with titanium coating, price around $155, ETA end of the month

What's going on? New premium matierial mmcx earbuds that don't cost you a kidney?

First that DSQM bud at $210 now this at $150. Before that we were heading into ludicrous territory with $500 high end earbuds.

Have these manufacturers realised the demand is too low on that price point and dropped it to a more resonable price range?

I bet sales profits are just outright better in the $100-200 range.
