Earbuds Round-Up
May 17, 2018 at 10:43 AM Post #31,127 of 75,139
I think now that I have 3 TOTL's with different signatures: Black Ling, Bk 2.5mm and Mojito. Also the budget PT15, DIY PK2 and Monk Lite for more rugged use. I can part with some of my middle buds like Rose Masya and TO400s which now I feel like I have too many to just collect dust. I'm trying not to become an earbud hoarder and move some on so I can try new sounds instead.

In other words, I'm being convinced to hear this Willsound MK2 and maybe MK1 thanks to you guys :p

noped out and just ordered a Toneking TO180 ($45 shipped) to hopefully upgrade my old graphenes

Looking forward to your comparison!

The MK2 is really something else... I think I can really not buy anything audio related for quite a some time now...

The wait is killing me. This is the last tracking I can find:
2018-05-08 11:20 JAKARTA MPC IDJKTC, Departure from outward OE

I guess that's only a week ago, but it feels like a month lol

I live in the region and it takes about 10 days after it leaves Jakarta to reach my country. I guess yours should be showing up pretty soon!

Too bad I had to mail the MK3 back to Rholupat due to a defect in the Y-splitter, if not I would have both to compare. Their recommended burn in is 20 hours, so I'll have to listen over the next few days to evaluate... :ksc75smile: I guess I won't see my replacement MK3 until another few weeks later...

Mine spent a week like that and then Royal Mail delivered it while it was still showing the same message on 17Track

So today I recovered my zishan z1 from retirement and slapped in some ABGT Group therapy sets, plugged in the MK2 version 1 special edition.

The only way to describe the sound is like watching a tapestry being woven in front of you with eyes closed.

Been using the lg v20 so long now that i forgot how these babies shine given more juice.

The older mk2 isn't as refined as the new version, but it's a raw and powerful punchy person!

technically you can get something better for your taste in that price range, depends on preference really. i don't think there is an ultimate best for everyone. for me personally, it's my preferred deep bass earbuds, in any price category. it's up there with the Liebesleid (as my preferred detail buds).

i've just ordered the PK32 for curiosity sake, and he would send the MK1, MK2, MK3 and 300 ohm (all rev 2 version in balanced) for me to check out.

Can't wait your impression of PK32. It is need a lot of time to burn before it really shine.

I'm really liking the MK2 even though it's not fully done with burning-in...

Can't speak for the rest here, but I already like them quite a lot better than some of my higher priced earbuds and IEMs... :L3000:
Got to agree with you about Willsound they sound great ootb and after about 20hrs they’ll be all settled down and sound even better!
