I'm glad that we help in your decision and that you like this driver.

For someone that loved the **** bk2. What is the best replacement for the same price? Mine broke and can't find them anymore.

Time for a noob-question, will the Smabat M2s Pro perform well directly hooked up to a phone or would one need an amp for it to perform well? I see that the specs are as follows but I'm not sure what that means in regard to my question:

Impedance: 40Ω
Sensitivity: 110±3dB

Pretty much everything sounds better with a proper amp, as smartphones are pathetically weak.

But a sensitivity of 110db is pretty high, which means it is pretty efficient. 40 ohm is higher than average but it shouldnt be hard to drive for a phone. You be fine, but getting at least a dongle will help a lot.

OK, thank you very much for the reply. Very appreciated.

Keep in mind, most of the times an 8usd apple dongle is more than enough. No need to go big buckoronies if you don't feel like it

When you say dongle, you mean a regular USB-C to 3,5 mm adapter and your point is that, most of the time, one do not need an amp for earbuds? Or am I missing the punchline in some sort of joke about my noob-questions?

The one that comes to my mind now is the RY4S Plus. MMCX just like the BK2 and as for the sound signature, it is warmer than the BK2 but not by a whole lot. If you're looking for something that has a similar shell to the BK2, then the ME80 is what comes to mind. Unfortunately also pretty hard to come by these days, apparently. Also, the ME80 is non-detachable.

Perhaps one of the newer Smabats, then? M0 & M2S Pro, iirc. I haven't tried any of them though, but reports here suggest that they're pretty good with the right driver config.

Hope this helps.

Yes, a USB-C/lightning to 3.5mm adapter.

You can read up on them here:

As per usual, @RikudouGoku beat me to it and did a better job.

From my (small) experience, apple dongle is all you need. And this is coming from a guy who bought L&P W2 12hours ago.
Most things will run perfectly fine from a cheap dongle. If they sound their best? Nope. But it's 8 bucks without dimishing returns. This is the best and most rentable 8 bucks of your journey.

This is meant for most Buds and IEMs with low impedance and ok sensibility (<= 40ohms). Over-ear headphones and high impendance buds, etc, are another story.

What's a X6 upgrade these days? Looking for more detail

K´s LBBS + EQ, only way to get the X6 true upgrade as far as I know.
