totally agree on the maria II. I didn't think earbuds could be fatiguing until I got the maria II's. all that upper energy doesn't bother me too much though, sadly I've not listened to my earbuds for months. after finally recovering from ear infections, I'm left with ongoing eczema issues. gross, I know. Headphones have been my only recourse over these past months.

Damn, that's been a battle! Sorry to hear it. Glad you're able to listen to headphones though. I wonder if the eczema has anything to do with various foams. I know that certain foams really get my ears irritated.

Anyway, hope you're back to listening to earbuds one of these days. Missing the wavelets!

hearing great things about the lbb. I need to get a pair and see how they measure and respond to autoeq/wavelet analysis.

**edit** lol... reading my own signature, I realize I have a pair somewhere. hmmm I just need to find them....

Check the box if you still have it. If the serial number starts with K21 you're good to go. If K20, K19 or older it's a different driver/tuning.

Hi guys, just some random recommends other than d venerable X6:

If u guys like rock, grunge or punk rock. Try d Faaeal Datura Pro. Been rocking it for a year and it is still sweet for my ears. With a good source u can get a great sense of space for guitar solos. I used to EQ them but not anymore. So good.

Also if u like Funk n R&B, Id recommend d Qian69. Great fit n very warm n just bassy enough for Prince tunes. Its so good I'm going to get d Qian39.

I definitely need to grab a set. Probably best at this stage waiting for 11th November for any discount though!

Any cheaper alternatives that are decent? Why did Nicehck stop manufacturing the EB2? that's just what I needed.
I mean if the bk is worth it I would invest the 165 bucks but with earbuds they always end up failing in one side after like 1-2 years.

I don't know any cheaper ones that are similar unfortunately.

I think earbuds can last a long time, it just depends on how theyre stored and handled. I've had my PK1 for 10 years and it still works

I store my "sleeping buds" in my ears every night, all night. Unfortunately this does not translate to them lasting a long time lol. I'm now trying not do destroy my B40 sleeping buds too quickly!

I wonder if wrapping the stems and jack with heavy duty tape would help when first receiving the buds. Wouldn't look too nice but it might help them last longer lol
