my friend i dont understand what u mean.

He means that all of the videos that you post are distracting. I would suggest either limiting the video posts, or at least putting them into spoilers to reduce the clutter.

Something to share

http://fukuoka-prize.org/en/laureate/prize/gra/arrahman.php

By his world-famous music, Mr. A. R. Rahman has opened up a new arena for film music, and has become a driving-force of this field to gain it a new recognition. His bold fusion of traditional South Asian, classical Western and popular contemporary American hip-hop and other music has created a number of unforgettable tunes with pleasing melodies and a powerful beat. They have become synonymous with the films for which he wrote them, and resonate in many hearts.

Maybe you should start a A. R. Rahman appreciation thread. You are starting to derail this thread again. We understand that you are a fan. Anyone here who wants to know more about him will do a search of their own.

I'm looking at more photos of my own ears, interestingly I don't really have a pronounced bump at the antitragus, and the space between antitragus and the ridge at 3 is relatively tall, so it seems the preferred fit area on my ear isn't at all close to ideal. I guess I need to get surgery so I can wear full size headphones...

Do not worry. You can use Gom/Silicone rings.

Could I trouble you to point me at some examples? I'm just quick look on eBay and Aliexpress, but so far not turning up any results. And just to be certain, should I be searching for "gom" or is this an alternate spelling for "gum?" Thanks!
Sorry Gom->Gum.

Otherwise, you may be able to find rings with keywords "SENNHEISER 558452" OR "SENNHEISER 563605" OR "SENNHEISER 538215".

What do the 4 color choices mean? Are they just cable colors, or different cables internally? The price range for the variations is very wide (US $186.25 - $243.75) but they don't explain what the differences are.

The colors are just identifiers. If you hover over the mouse you will see the following:

Black - 3.5mm with mic
Yellow - 3.5mm with no mic
Purple - 2.5mm balanced
Grey - 3.5mm balanced

A TOTL bud with a mic is interesting. I might have gotten this in 2.5mm if it wasn't for Cypherus' new announcement.

I have only used them with my Fostex HPA4BL. I will try them with a couple of daps, too busy listening right now to my new DSQM Z&W Panda PK2s that I received today
How do you rate them? The pk2s.

It is true that my only concern is that the earbuds have a great imaging and stage representation, and I'm sensitive to harsh, spikes, piercing high, and so I'm intrigued to these Rw777, but if they are a step down from totl earbuds, I think I'll look for another one

Overall they are a step down from TOTL earbuds, but in the areas of soundstage, imaging and clarity they punch way above their price and can compete with some TOTL earbuds.

But no, not quite TOTL...

Just got them a few hours ago so still need a bit of burn in, first impression is they are slightly more v-shaped than the PK2
