Earbuds Round-Up
Jun 26, 2022 at 6:13 AM Post #61,711 of 75,235
The ST10S Black Gold 150 ohm driver has big sub-bass. But for earbuds, drivers are just one variable, the housing and fit influence bass perception a lot. Smabat earbuds have some acoustic labyrinth structure that amplifies the bass apparently.
This is one of the reasons I can't wait to get the 150 ohm driver to put into the M2s Pro and A/B them to the ST10S gold.

Plus, these are meant to be worn over-ear (not that you can't wear them down, it just comes with an over-ear only cable). Though, it seems as though the original packaging and cable was changed, and it was actually a straight cable that came with them before?! Not totally sure on that one though.

Do any of the Smabat drivers have deent bass?
yes they do. Ultimately the quantity is a question of fit and seal. Iam not disappointed with the Smabat bass especially the St-10s BG

what do u mean by worst one and excellent? btw, if u should choose 1 driver, what driver u will choose?
He's saying that even their worst sounding driver (compared to the other ones) is very good.

It has the least bass and probably the worst timbre of the bunch. I would probably take the ST10 driver though the LCP 40 Ohm dome, 14.2 bio and the Super One are all very nice sounding. They all have a great soundstage, all have above average bass. The LCP and bios have a timbre I love, but I have other earbuds that have those qualities as well. The ST10 driver just has a bass response that is second to none in the earbud world—at least second to nothing I’ve heard and I’ve heard more than most.

I have M2s Pro with 150 ohm, Super One and Stock Driver. I wonder will M4 provide a significant upgrade over m2s pro and all its driver. Also the TWS and IEM modular option is very tempting haha

Hello friends, I made something horrible or amazing, whatever you say, I will update you on the sound :D!
Inspired greatly by the Aiwa V99, I got this printed for me but my design. They fit too! Just havent heard the sound yet... i'll give impressions soon as I used the Foster clone drivers for this which I find absolutely wonderful.
In the diagram, the red is the vent for air. blue is cable.
