Well I picked up the Stardust and Cygnus at a fair price (€120 and €33 respectively). One for home use, one for on the go.
I'll provide some comparisions and whether I think Stardust is worth the extra $$$. Plus I'll compare both our of my PC (decently powerful source) and my iphone to test whether it's worth the upgrade to stardust for mobile users.
The shell alone makes me happy about this purchase, Yuin shell is unbelievably comfortable for anyone I feel. Plus if it's an upgrade on DIY PK2 (Cygnus... of course Stardust is lol) then I'll be extremely happy as I love my PK2.
Now I know I've overspent on earbuds lately but hear me out... I'm giving away 3 earbuds to family members who badly needed to discover what good sound is after being subjected to cheapo phone buds for too long lol. Makes more sense to give these cheap buds to family rather than sell them as the profit wouldn't be so great factoring in shipping and second hand. Plus it's nice to give gifts.

I'll be left with Masya for instrumental, Soundtrack/atmospheric music, Stardust for everything else and Cygnus for outside use. Still unsure where the DIY Graphene will fit in, but I'll definitely use it if I enjoy the sound.
Only thing I didn't consider is using the Cygnus outdoors, that green cable will definitely be a sight to behold... LOL. On second thought's maybe the DIY Graphene will be my outdoors earbud
Looking forward to the comparison. I love the Cygnus!
