I've been holding back from getting a pair for the longest time... seems like I'll have to find somewhere to source for one as AE and TB are no go for me...
I hope you get a good deal on somewhere else. They literally sell them here for dirt cheap.

Yeah, they quite do the sound staging very well, probably due to it's open back nature.
I usually use the MS16 at home because yeah... Open back and sound leaks.

Don't expect fully bodied bass, it lacks the sub bass performance. The mids are kinda warm and really vivid.

How about the highs? I'm a bit treble sensitive.

Here it's selling for around US$7

Real subtle and tonally accurate, it's really transparent sounding when it comes to it. No piercing whatsoever, and no sibilance, as far as my pair goes.
YMMV because Headroom isn't really reliable for their QC. It's cheap for me though so it doesn't hurt to try.

My EB2 is definitely broken. The left earbud goes on and off as i wiggle the cable. The red plastic is also coming off... a bit disappointed its been like 1 or 2 years of use. Sound is good tho.

Anyone a bit paranoide about buying from alibaba cuz of coronavirus? anyway to buy good earphones outside of china?

Anything good to pick on amazon?

The virus is unstable. It will die from the uv/radiation alone on an airport transport. Plus the harsh extreme hots and cold conditions.

It requires a human to carry over in their very convenient flesh cases.

do they run UV on airports? does the UV laser tresspass all the boxes?..

anyway, how do you rate the VE monk vs the usual suspects here? (pk3 yuin, EB2...)

No, just the extra radiation you get for being abive the clouds and closer to the atmosphere.

Not a problem normally, but a virus with nothing but its genes exposed is another matter.

Just reviewed the KBEAR Knight earbuds.
I think these are very good for the price.
I do not own many earbuds, but I feel these sound good. My EB2 from NiceHCK really struggle behind them.

Review up here.
