Earbuds Round-Up

[bloodyf8]

Pk3 may fit your requirements of sound. Or other contender: boarseman mx985, ath c909, hifan es100, etc. I dont think tomahawk is good enough if vocal is what you're searching for. It has metallic sound and a little sibilance for high pitch note.

For $10 eaebud, edifier h185 or th hiz 32ohm is good choice. Qian 25/39 seems nice. though i never tried it, i will someday

thanks..i will go with pk3 i just want to confirm if im pick the good one ,also pk3 a bit cheaper than tomahawk

 

[JASru]

  thanks..im decided to buy 2 earbud one under 50$ and one under 10$,im still confusing to pick both of yuinpk3 and tomahawk

Well, I can't recommend Tomahawk, because it is very special. It is kinda rough. Not bad, but not my type.
Never heard Yuin.

I didn't realize PK3 was cheaper than the Tomahawk now. Maybe i'll have to get it again (I used to have it almost 10 years ago... crazy)

You may increase the budget and buy Shozy Cygnus instead of buying many earbuds..

 

[vapman]

Cygnus remains to  date my favorite gaming earbud! Unbeatable channel  separation makes echolocation effortless.

Yes. Diomnes v1 even still has ve mark on its housing. I dont know for v2, but they claimed there's no different between v1 and v2 except the color of the cable.

And for campfred i'm pretty sure. I dont know about the qfred. From what i've heard it also used advance driver, but different modifify technic and other parts (cable. Terminator, etc).

It just like other DIY earbud. Red demun and edimun used same driver but the sound is different. The crow, yhe raven, and diomnes used same driver but the sound sihn is totally different (i've ever had the crow and also diomnes).

Yeah, Red De'mun and Edimun do sound different.

I'm amazed that Monk drivers can sound so hi fi like in Diomnes. I didn't care much for the original Monk and prefer Monk+. But Diomnes continue to blow me away every day.

Agree. Spent more money and jump to top of the line earbud, definitely will satisfy you.

I knew it when i bought second hand diomnes v1. It still has ve mark on its housing. Then i asked them and they confirmed it.
When they sent me demo unit of v2 lv.2 and dietris, i never guessed its original driver is old monk. It's too good to be true for my ears. They really did great job

Kinda wish I had kept around more of my og monks for modding then!

I'll say i regret for not keep them at least one too. I've ever had 7 of them, buy i gave them to my relatives or sold them out. Today i saw someone sold asura v1. I think i'll buy it eventhough i've ever had them twice before

  all rounder and prefer good in vokal and good in soundstage (bass doesnt matter for me) also i need a recomendation under 10$ earbud i have vemonk+ and edifier h180 and i wanna try another good sounds does ty hiz 32 is good enough or i should get edifier h185?

The current range of TY32 (L-plug, black or red cabled) versions has too much bass energy and can overwhelm the vocals. IMO, not quite suitable for vocal performance.
 
IMHO, the K's 64ohm (white-cabled) has quite impressive vocal performance for a cheap earbud. The vocals never seem to be fazed with whatever is happening around it; almost tube-like in its delivery. Generally, K's 64ohm(white) has a similar sound signature as Monk+, with a brighter sound & slightly lacking in stage depth (a more cosy sound).

Then you can make your own Diomnes Lv2!   

Or perhaps send it to ABnormal and then they can custom make you a pair of Diomnes...

 

[Fabi]

And Stardust will probably be my new friend later in the spring.

But you really should give Diomnes a try also if you have the chance!

Speaking of chance, after some reflexion, actually you're my only chance to do so hahaha 
More seriously, I don't feel currently the complete attraction to Diomnes for my sound preference and pairing with my setup.

I still have three pairs of OG Monk, the very only earbuds I keep for collection. 

It can be an option to consider.
