  should be there soon now
 
 
Brooko to the rescue?
i still need to hear the original mojito anyway..

i hope to god Brooko gets to review it, easily one of if not the best reviewer on the site. great writer.
 
Also desperately holding myself back from buying all the TY Hi-Zs.... gotta be patient!
 
i still just want to hear the mojito new version. If anyone in the boston area wants to do a mini-meet...

  What is for me then ? 

 
I can only think of Zen Black balanced. A warmer complement to the brighter Mojito. Best of both worlds. The pinnacle of earbuds.

 

[Tomasz2D]

  I only want to collect ultra high-end tbh

 

 
a) Go a completely different route in sound signature and get either:
   i) Zen 2.0 (Normal, Balanced, or Balck Edition)
  ii) NOS Zen 1.0
b) Go the vintage route and get the following brands:
  i) Aiwa (Most notably the Aiwa HPV-99)
 ii) Sony (Most notably the Sony MDR E-282)

 
Or:
c) go back to budget earbuds again.
 
I went this "c" route myself starting with budget, then I went to high-end and then returned to budget again and I must admit this is the place where the real fun is.

Mojito can´t be "ultra high end", because Wild Lee posted recently, that real high end buds don´t need foams, so.....

Today I spent my afternoon reading taobao listing and read many interesting (albeit google translated).
 
to my limited understanding TY high Z earbud is not that hard to drive since they're quite sensitive?
 
can @haiku or @AudioNewbi3 or @vapman any other owners confirm this?

I haven't come there yet. Still, I do buy some budget stuff even if I want to stick to high end earbuds. TY HI-Z32 is really great and I think I prefer it to original Monk, Monk+ and AuGlamour RX1. RX1 does have some of the nicest mids I've heard in a pair of earbuds, though...

The only problem with buying budget earbuds is that you buy much more. Do you really need 30-40 earbuds? My aim is to stick around 20 but it's hard...

I read the Teiba thread that the new 400Ohm by TY is significantly easier to drive than the 320Ohms if SeaHf. How true is this, I have no idea, as I always use my buds on a stack.

 

[vapman]

The SeaHf 400 definitely needs the power too.

600 Ohms for an Earbud, i think this will be first of its kind

For Seahf 200 mw and up at 16 Ohm for all of them. Nothing to use with a smartphone.
