Hmm, Rose Mojito will be below $200 when the sale starts.
Wish it was offered w/o cables. Wonder what they would charge then?
So I'm getting over a cold right now so my hearing is not perfect but what i can tell you is the Zen2.0 is still better than Cygnus. However, the Cygnus is better that Asura 2.0 IMHO. The one thing i really love right now about the Cygnus is that smaller housing unit that it uses vs VE mx400 housing. The fit is amazing and it is the prettiest of all the buds I own(until the cable turns green lol)

BTW it does not have like what one head fi er called "sub bass" the cut off is similar to the asura...... I would say id does have more presence around the 100hZ and up mark with makes it bassy... but sorry... no sub bass as in the 20-30hz stuff.

You know what. Im gonna say the Asura and Cygnus are more of a tie. lol. Asura has better separation and soundstage but I listen to a lot of electronic music and the cygnus handles that stuff better than Asura.
Hmm, alright, Thanks for the info mate!
So meaning the Tomahawks will outperform all 3 of the buds?
Definitely. Tomahawk is a very great earbud

what's the final take on Tomahawk vs Ting? I fell off the bait and bought the Tomahawk. Still on its way though. now I'm curious why the Ting is more expensive than the TH. Anyone has thoughts on this so far?

The BOE has a relaxed, yet highly detailed sound, that is closer to neutral than the Tomahawk. The Tomahawk in comparison is more forward with a touch more sub-bass.
Both are wonderful earbuds, but with different sound signatures. I'm enjoying listening to the two against each other.

I'm currently working on that.
Testing as much as I can right now. After lots of burn in, I find the Tomahawk to be a bit more forward, just like against the BOE.
The Ting is still a tad forward as well. Both MusicMaker earbuds have a fantastic clarity. In your face with every note.
The Tomahawk is the better value. Little more bass and smoother highs, a very fun signature.
The Ting is the King of the MusicMaker earbuds, very revealing and honest. Very high quality sound.
You really can't go wrong with purchasing either one.

Does anyone here who has the Monk have any interest in the Fiio EM3? I've just ordered the Fiio EM3 off of amazon, can't wait for them to arrive.
My only other pair of earbuds are the BlueEverBlue 328R which I've been using for a little over a year now. I may do my best to compare the two but I am mostly curious about a comparison to the Monk.
The prices of these 3 earbuds are relatively different but since they are all in the lower range and I do not have the Monk I thought I'd ask.

Tomahawk on sale at Easy earphones! $36! Sad I've bought them at $40 a couple of days ago..

(from AliExpress Android)
Just ordered a few minutes ago - $37.70 shipped. I wanted the silver one but EasyEarphones only had the 'Black' and 'Blue' in stock. Cleared it up with them and they said the 'Blue' is in fact the silver one. So I ordered 'Blue'.
@BloodyPenguin can you tell me how is the packaging? If there is a box I will tell them to forego it - it will be easier to pass customs for me.

IMHO BOE super open, relaxing, wide staging earbuds. Headphome like presentation. For me they are amazing pallate cleanser
