I've bought them for a long time, but thought maybe defective caught, decided to buy again, the result is the same.

Cool, but where Cygnus?Look at what the cat dragged in...
...and guess who received two ToTL earbuds today?
The white one is the 400 ohm earbud from SeaHF and its partner (my unofficial translated name is 'Headphone Union') - really good, but a bit hard to drive and I am not sure even my FiiO X7 is doing it justice. Will need to listen to it on a desktop amp to really tell how good it will be. But I'll give it a bit burn-in before any serious listening.
The main course is of course the Ostry KC08 - very impressive on first listen and if you haven't done so - order yourself a pair immediately!!! The overall presentation is slightly on the leaner, cleaner side but I'll still consider to be overall balanced. Treble extension is very refined - crisp, detailed, but not bright or hash. Mid and bass range are almost neutral in quantity, and soundstage is excellent. I think I won't be too far off to describe the KC08 as a pair of Etymotic ER4P with big soudnstage.
@ClieOS Those Ostrys look very interesting. VE Monk has made me very interested in ear buds, so the KC08 are definitely on my radar. How is the build quality?
Cool, but where Cygnus?
OK, you have Zen2.0?Cygnus is almost the same price as KC08, and I just don't have enough confidence with Shozy to pay that kind of price. I do own a pair of Shozy dual dynamic IEM and it is just okay.
OK, you have Zen2.0?
Nice, more works..Still in burn-in, haven't really made up my mind about it yet.

Thanks for your first impressions, how big are they and are they difficult to fit?
When you say that bass and mids are almost neutral, are they up or down from neutrality?
