It's possible that the yin is just a retuned TM9.

Blox has said explicitly that YIN has a new driver. BTW, I ordered one and it is enroute.

Yeah, I heard penon is good but they seem to use local shipping, Wich in my country is literally run by thieves, so I don't want to risk it

Contact Penon and ask if they can arrange alternative shipping methods.

I had a good afternoon, recabled 2 Sony MDR-E808+, 1 Sony Ericsson HPM-64, 1 DIY PK2 SR2 PRO 16ohm and created from scratch an earbud using EMX500 drivers (I'm calling it a HungryPanda DIY EMX500)

I really like how Woo quick described his new YIN model, because this is exactly how I feel compared to TM9 :

"Clarity is topnotch and high extend so well,details are better while they are not bright and maintain smoothness well.they are more engaging for sure due to better clarity,more weight of impact and better speed,bass also improved with deeper,hit harder and cleaner texture. sound stage similar to TM9"

How about sunrise dragon 2?
89$ at Penon right now

ClieOS said: "SWD2 is the old model made by Sunrise (which already change its name to Simphonio a few months ago) about 6 yrs ago. It is still a very good earbud by today's standard, but not on the same level as the ToTL SWD2+."

So it depends on what you want - Very Good or TOTL for another $200 something (or Massdrop for $200+ ship/tax if they have another drop)?

Also, Simphonio Dragon3 is coming . . .

He might be willing to do a swap for you, he did for me but my tm9 started rattling on the left side just when the yin was ready.

Just wondering. Anyone ordered RY4S from Ali during 11.11? Mine still on "shipment ready for dispatch"

11.11 shipments are really the worst in the year.

The shipping company simply can’t cope with it!

Yeah pretty slow. My other purchase(foam tips) is already "departed country of origin" today though.
But these are on free shipping anyway . Guess can't complain much on that.

I ordered and for some reason It cannot be tracked using 17track or the Singapore post website, Aliexpress shows shipment accepted by airline, still waiting for any updates, did you try contacting them, keep me posted too.

Yeah I talked to them but there express price is almost double the average, guess I am out of luck

 

[redkingjoe]

If you guys checked the internet, there’s a lot of 11.11 photos and videos on the goods in the godown of the shipping firms.

These goods are just like garbage waiting to be burned!

Meanwhile I am waiting for those Sony E808+that you like. The will need to be recabled though. No J cable for me! Ordered two pairs in case there is a soldering accident If everything is successful my husband and I will each have a pair if he wants one of them.

I hope you like them, but remember - they DO need burning in, more than any others in my collection. I have bought three pairs and each one has changed over time. About 20-30 hours of normal listening was about right for me.

The 2 pairs of Sony E808+ arrived yesterday along with some supplies that my husband had bought for building buds and recabling projects. So a few hours after arrival they were both recabled. As you suggested mine have been attached to my computer for burning in since last night. They sound great! Thanks for the recommendation and thanks to @HungryPanda for the nice recabling work. I think he also likes his 808+ .

Here they are with their nice new cable. The different color wires going to each side will make it much easier to tell right from left. I could never have used these with the stock J cable!
