Earbuds Round-Up
Apr 6, 2016 at 12:54 PM Post #3,708 of 75,871
Hey all - great thread. Nice to see the classic earbud form-factor still having a following.
 
I'm particularly interested in high-impedance 'buds with >150ohms load. Here's the list I've compiled:
 
Hifiman ES100 (150 ohms) - $69 (Amazon)
VE Asura (150 ohms) - $78 (Aliexpress)
Yuin PK1 (150 ohms) - $155 (Amazon)
Yuin OK1 (150 ohms) - $225 (Amazon)
Seahf 150 (150 ohms) - $ (???)
VE Zen 2 (320 ohms) - $149 (Aliexpress)
SeaHf 320 (320 ohms) - $  (???)
Dark Horse G400 (400 ohms) - $137 (Aliexpress)
 
 
Does that seem complete view of that portion of the current market?

With golov's additions I think that is all, yup.

I thought rose mojito was 120ohm but it's only 12 ohms?

BTW even though the Hifiman is the cheapest of those you posted prices for, it's my favorite of all & any earbud I've heard so far. I understand why some say it's too dark or lifeless, but I find it to have very good and honest sound reproduction. However if you like sparkle or "life" in your sound, consider an Asura or Zen.

The yuins are good but I don't think they're anything special compared to the Tomahawk or Asura.

Haven't heard the Dark Horse but I want to, and

FAREAL sound a little bit similar with ve monk, with better clarity & detail.
Jiushao e300 sound warm with a sweet, thick, and lush vocal. Very good detail & separation.
So if you dont like monk/edifier sound sig, better try jiushao e300. It's one of the best price to performance earbud too. IMHO

Wow..okay thanks for advice.
But if you have another advice (not always jiushao e300) pls do not hesitate to tell me
Thanks :)
