The MX985 was an expensive model of Sennheiser.



Thing is, it is not a PK shell. I think sellers just put things like that in the title so that the item will come up in various searches. That is also why they used to say "Monk killer" in many product listings... because then anyone searching for a Monk would find the listing.

No im very confuse...i dont know how to call them! think I will go back to tingo....ugh.

Here is a tip that will help with aliexpress links so that you will not hate to share them. If the link is super long with all that extra spam type stuff you delete everything after the .html Headfi actually expects us to do that.

So the one you posted ends up like this. Links are always appreciated because the search function on aliexpress is horrible.

This one looks to be the one that people were praising... including my husband @HungryPanda We just refer to it as the Fengru Silver. It does not seem to have a name.

edit... actually he has it in his list as Fengru DIY 16 ohm Silver (AA-0122)

No im very confuse...i dont know how to call them! think I will go back to tingo....ugh.

Why not call it "Fengru DIY 16 ohm Silver (AA-0122)" like mbwilson111 suggested?

But it is not that either. Often on aliexpress there will be several sellers each putting their name on it.

They all come from the same factory.

Just call it the Fengru DIY 16 ohm Silver (AA-0122)

That is actually accurate.

Okay DONE. Fengru DIY 16 ohm Silver (AA-0122) it is then.

I'm happy to know HungryPanda love them too! Feel lees hysterical now.

Must have imo at this price. I prefer them over MX500 but its my taste, prefer the sweet immersive vocal of Fengru Silver. But bass is a little slower and less punchy. Anyway, the sound is more cohesive and musical to me.

So I'll be getting 5 new earbuds altogether, kube1, kube2, shiny ivory white Victor earbud , Sweden happy plug gold , and the JVC Victor bud. Thanks you for my wallets (^_^♪)

Let me know how you like the Happyplugs! Are they the earbuds or the earpods? I've seen them in local stores but for some reason never considered buying them.

 

[mochill]

Happy plug is the 16mm driver earbud

 

[CasstardPie]

Anybody tried this earbuds to headphone mod yet

I believe these are just a hoax. The review quotes are fake, especially the one attributed to Tyll. In any case they would sound like crap, considerin

 

[ValSilva]

Marie Kondo would say no!

I love it

I thought that only me do that (don't usually paying attention to others' links here). My rationale is that the baggage after .html (or after the question mark) is not affecting the actual page you are after; it's a tracking ID. With this tracking ID, AE could relate one account to another, which can be used to provide suggestions to other stuff, which probably you had never searched for (wonder why they suggested you some lingerie even though you only buying audio stuff?).

Now that we finally have a correct name for them... great review!

^ probably not.
Had them on for a walk just now again.
With the same clips as waynesworld linked there was no dislodging at all.
Clipped right above the y-split spot.
Normally due to the ribbon cable they would at times dislodge, so problem fixed.
Thanks for making me buy some btw.
I don't have massive ears , so with first wedging the Kube2 under the upper ear ridge then on the lobes it was directionally perfect for firing the sound in.

Large bass. ( not "earbud large", but regular large if that makes sense.)
I have not experimented with thinner foams yet. nor donuts. Donuts might be neat to try out.
I forget what wayneworld has tried as far as various foams, and how it affects the sound.
Anyhow time will tell when others get in on the testing.

BTW these clips are cheapo. On the larger side but work very well.

Word of warning that Nick and I wanted to share.

I bought these clips from Penonaudio:

At the same time, Nick bought these ebay clips, and then a while later I bought them as well (to supplement my Penon clips):

We assumed they were pretty much the same, but I just got my ebay clips, and they are definitely a bit different...

The one on the left is from Penonaudio, and the one on the right is from ebay (I'm calling that one "monster clip" lol):



Fyi!

So falling back in earbuds phase, I begin some DIY project with 2$ VIDO recabling and really like how the sounstage expend with this Agptek body
This project take me a big 5 minutes and worth every seconds of effort and 3$ total investment ahah

Still, nothing beat a SPC recabling and I just bought these beauty for 3.50$ at RY store:
