Recently sold my stock Vidos to @GREQ and my VE Asura and Monk Plus Coffee sets to @seanc6441 (for modding purposes, very interested in seeing what he does with those)

On the way: JVC Victor (transparent red housing!), Docomo (white ones), Sabia V6 Experimental, Zen LL, Imperial Audio Paradise. Nice nice.

How did you find docomos?

How did you find docomos?

I second this question. I'd love the stock standard docomos so I can have a pk bud again. I have the pk sr2 but need to burn it in. But I also want that warm bright tilt offered from my cygnus (which is a docomo driver with upgrade cable I believe) so I'd love a docomo bud... Or two.

@Carrow

Also how on earth did you get the JVC Victor. That's all people can talk about on earbuds anonymous lately lol. They must be good buds.

If you're able to get it, remember to get extras coz they come with y-cable. I'm sure you will want to re-cable it.

What are the extras? You mean like recable?

I would want to do that myself. But if by extras mean sosomething else please do tell.

Btw, why are the JVC branded ones cheaper than the Victor branded ones. Do they sound different? Thanks

any comparison between bs1 official and to400s? and alike earbuds?) For example, Lyra Collection. (really seeking to try it!!!)

 

[Carrow]

I can never be sure if it's Yin-yoo or Yincrow we're not allowed discuss in this thread. (or on HF anywhere) @RuFrost

edit: apparently it's Yin-yoo so you should edit your post to be on the safe side

The Cubu and V1 do sound very close to the same. For whatever reason I thought they sounded just slightly different, but in a blind test I most likely could not distinguish between the two earbuds.

Huh! Very interesting. Thanks for sharing that.

Does anybody know why there seems to be two versions of MusicMaker MrZ Tomahawk? There is one with the MusicMaker logo and then there is another with the Z in the middle.

One says Toneking the other Music Maker. These seem to be the same.

What are the differences, if any?

Also, what about MrZ Ting, how does that compare to Tomahawk? Chinese sites (Aliexpress) seem to comparing Tomahawk to MX 985, does it sound like 985s?

What are the extras?

I think by "get extras" he means get more than one set.

 

[mbwilson111]

Yeah, in case you kill a driver during a recabling effort. It happens.

To400s. Linear sound. Analytical. Considerable bass roll off, lacks depth and punch. Treble dips slightly but has an emphasis around 10khz for air. Overall it's like a more technical shozy bk without the mid bass punch.

Bs1 O. Warm medium full bass but not too deep. Slightly bright tilting mids but has enough vocal body to carry a presence. Really musical. Nice smooth lower treble and slight emphasis in the mid treble for sparkle, slightly rolled off upper treble. One peak around the upper mids (maybe 3khz region) that throws off tonality a bit, but not determental unless you want neutrality.

Both retrieve lots of detail. But fall short on overall extension and sounding 'dynamic'. I imagine they would make good earbuds to try out in mx500 or other more ported housings, but that would be costly lol.

Thanks you are right. Makes sense.

Bought 2 kube buds and will buy 2 Victor/2 Docomo buds. Only bought one SL1.0+ but i can get that again if I need too.

I usually buy 2+ budget buds if im modding, easier to A/B that way to see if I prefer the mod or not.
