Rose earbuds are always a bit finicky to get a great fit for me and until someone can definitively prove to me that their product can last more than a year, I'm not particularly interested. Would probably prefer going for ZoomFreds or something

well, just buy a reserve pair, I do this quite often if I'm not sure about the quality or fearing that the release will be stopped ..

DQSM Turandot? Moondrop Chaconne?

I've tried the Liebeslieds but the weight and form factor didn't work for me.

First I'm hearing of the DQSM Turandot - looks promising. Thank you for the suggestion, I'll definitely look into them.

What is a reserve pair?

What is a reserve pair?

It means buying an extra pair/set. When they are unavailable in the future, you have an extra pair handy.

I wished I had that kind of money to get multiple units of my favorite equipment...

I have been becoming more mindful these days on how I spend on audio products these days, and have set several rules before any purchase.

Are there any preferred tips for the standard mx500 shells?

i used to think that way, buying several iems/earbuds as backups. but i found out that if i happen to get bored with it, i would have more pile of uneeded gears. now i just buy another one if the old unit breaks. and if it happens to be discontinued, they'll definitely other products that can substitute it

others might be better to clarify, but the Turandot is also all metal earbuds, so it may be heavy like the Liebesleid

have you tried the Simphonio Dragons? i haven't heard the version 3, but the version 2 is great sounding earbuds.

I have to agree on the Simphonio Dragon 2+, as I thoroughly enjoyed when I had them. I'm interested in the Dragon 3 but was turned away by the exorbitant price tag.

Looking forward to your impressions of them...

revisiting old love in a new way. still sounds great even for today's standard and after buying and trying loads of earphones. and definitely cheaper than getting airpods

Thank you for the explanation I'm a dummy

I don't mean to be disrespectful but now that I know what a "reserve pair" is, this is kind of a ridiculous comment.

I have no faith in Rose products so your suggestion is to buy two pairs? LM(f)AO - that's a big no thank you from me.

The problem with the Liebesleid for me was a combination of the weight and geometry. My ear play better with the PK1 style shells, but the standard shells are definitely the best for me. But thank you for the reminder.

I'm probably not up-to-date with the Simphonios but I have heard them before, I'll def look into v3.

can't imagine this one working with an mx500 shell.

The metal PK shells of Turandot are certainly heavier than plastic PK, but I wouldn't describe it as a "heavy" earbud. Very comfortable for me.

I'm looking for a great, high-end Earbud with maximum stage capabilities and ability to connect to a 2.5mm balanced DAC.

If it doesn't exist, please give me a list of your top 5 or top 3 Earbuds $200-350.
