Silver cable is from the NiceHCK DIY MX500 and the gold is the DQSM Turandot. The Turandot is just a bit thicker, not enough to compensate for the weight difference. I am definitely not taking the Turandot outside of my house.

Well...diminishing return hit me like a truck after going from the NiceHCK DIY MX500 to the Turandot. The SQ definitely is better but no where near what I was hopping with the price increase and it seems that earbuds are physically unable to rumble anywhere near what iems are capable of.
put on thick foams

I put on 2 of the Full foams that came with it, certainly helped. Not sure if I have any full foams that is considered thick. (only have stock foams.)

Reading through the thread and just saw this. Really? I have to pick up a pair. Thx

This prompted me to break out my 120's (it's been a while). I can't compare to the hd600's, but with some amping, and with a bit of bass boost, they really do sound very good.

I will definitely review this but was honestly expecting more.

How much did you pay in fees and import taxes?

Anyone familiar with the Fiio EM3S? The lower mids are toned down but the upper mids are amazingly clear and has a big soundstage which results in a big and airy soundstage. The only thing that brings all back together is a flaw in the earbuds and it's the upper bass that kind of bleeds in that I wish wasn't there.The only partial solution is to actually use the EM3S without foams

A user included these earbuds on the side as a gift, however my problem with the EM3Sis that the cable quality sucks and the right channel is quieter than the left. Any alternatives to the EM3S? I've found the Remax RM-303 but in-line mics are a big no no in my book.

I will be familiar with EM3K (no mic version) very soon since they come as a gift with M3 Pro player (if it will actually arrive of course). Can't say I expect much because I have a romance with Faaeal earbuds now.
