Sizes comparison..

Thank you for that!  Those look like they should fit my ears much better than the VE Buds

Not that I'm not still gonna get the Zen 2.0 at some point of course   But I'll probably get the 328R for when I want a more snug fit from earbuds
 
So do the 328R manage to get sub-bass with reasonably low distortion?


OH OH OH and could you take one more pic for me?  Specifically, a comparison of the THICKNESS of the housings rather than just the diameter?  That would be amazing if you could

One further question.  How do the Yuin PK-x line and the Blox earbuds compare, in terms of housing-size, to the VE buds?

No problem..

No problem..

Hmmmmm. . .well thanks!  Definitely looks like somethign that might work for me in terms of fit And for only 30 bucks I don't see why I shouldn't just go out on a limb and give it a try

 

[goodyfresh]

No problem..

So, another question.  How would you say the size of the Yuin PK1 housings and the various Sennheiser earbuds' housings, and the Blox earbuds' housings, compare to those of the VE Monks?  I know you have all three (the Yuins, some Senn's if I remember correctly that you said so once, and some Blox), think you could make a comparison with some pics sometime?  Since I have small ears, shopping for earbuds is tough fo rme, so I really hjust want to get a good idea of the various sizes they come in.

Absolutely identical housing VE & Blox

Absolutely identical housing VE & Blox

Gah, okay.  ANd not sure about the Yuins or the Sennheisers?

 

[golov17]

All yuin also

No, that's not true. Yuin shells are considerably slimmer than MX500 (VE/Blox) shells.
 
I did some quick measurements by eye, so probably a bit of error here:
 
MX500 diameter: 1.8 cm
Yuin diameter: 1.6 cm
Senn MX98x diameter: 1.7 cm
 
MX500 thickness at the widest part: 0.5 cm
Yuin thickness at the widest part: 0.35 cm
Senn MX98x thickness at the widest part: 0.4 cm

Um. . .1.8mm and 0.5mm?  Do you mean 18mm and 5mm?  Lol?

@golov17  Do you like the PK1? What's your favorites buds? =D

 

[goodyfresh]

So here's a question, guys.  Does Tyll from Innerfidelity not know how to properly set up his rig to measure earbus?  Because his earbuds measurements always seem to end up looking like this:
 
http://www.innerfidelity.com/images/YuinPK1.pdf

Holy crap.  LOOK AT THAT DISTORTION.  Look at that COMPLETE LACK OF BASS.  I find it impossible to believe that a product costing over 100 dollars, which people seem to love a great deal, measures that damn badly, because with measuremetns like that it couldn't possibly sound good.
 
Thoughts, anyone?  Does Tyll just not like earbuds much and so he doesn't bother setting up the measuring rig well for them, or something?

After VE beta Asura, no

 

[emusic13]

I think the PK1 is good( I use donut foams if that matters) but that may change once I get Zen 2.0 But then again, Ive had my PK1 for about 4 years so it could be its time anyway
