Think of it as in "if you could only take 2 to a desert island...?"

One Vido and one E808+

Plus boatload of earbud spare parts & some tools from taobao!

So I've given the K's 64 and the RW-9s a listen. They are both great! lol...I'm losing track of my earbud hierarchy! They both have a nice full, rich sound quality. The K's seem to have a bit of reverb that makes piano and organ sound really great.

Right on! My 64's should be here soon

Can anyone explain to me why am I finding earbuds with high impedances (like 400 ohms)? I assumed high impedances were only for big headphones.

If you have a good desktop amp earbuds with high impedance earbuds sound more like full sized headphones

yup, exactly. my PS100-500 is like a mini ATH R70X with a slightly smaller staging.

The TO65 is like the forgotton son of the toneking family. Has anyone here actually heard it? Haven't seen anything written about it as far as I can remember.

I have TO65 since few months. Mid-centric and polite. Easy to drive, but better sounding with amp. Recessed treble and bass. Best bare or with donut. It stayed with me for listening on higher volume, because Monk+ or BK2 was fatiguing. Second reason was mmcx and using short balanced cable with Radsone ES100.

I've got a Little Bear B4-X Dual Mono Tube Amp (w/Balanced 2.5mm TRRS & Single-Ended 3.5mm TRS Output) on order, and I'm hoping it works well & sound good with my high impedance earbuds.
It's ~$100, which is a bit higher than your request, but it could be worth the extra $10.
