Could someone kindly give impressions about the RY4S mmcx interface earbud (300ohm) please.
Compared to ST-10, ST-10S is slightly less neutral in frequency distribution with a reduction in treble, giving a fainted sense of warmth and smooth. Soundstage has improved but mainly on layering / position - I see these more like trade-off rather than improvement, so basically they remain largely the same technically but tuned differently. So if you love the original ST-10, then perhaps ST-10S is not the direct upgrade you are looking for. But if you find ST-10 a bit too bright, then ST-10S might worth a try.
ST-10S Black Gold however is more like a fully opened up ST-10S, reminds me a lot of Sennheiser HD600. (*though I have not listened to HD600 for awhile, so takes it with a grain of salt). Between the two, I'll definitely recommend Black Gold first and I'll consider it as a proper upgrade of the original ST-10. It is harder to drive though, so you want to make sure you have a decent source first.
How much power does your source need though for that to sound decent? .... is 75mW enough?+1 for the Snow Lotus 2.5mm - I prefer it to a lot of other "TOTL" earbuds
If they are not super, then at least very interesting. I have already spoken about my first impressions of FAAEAL Iris: Commemorative Edition in this thread above (I have already spoken about FAAEAL Iris: Commemorative Edition (https://www.head-fi.org/threads/earbuds-round-up.441400/post-15567661).Does FAAEAL make good earbuds? Planning on getting the Litz copper cable from them on the coming sale "Refresh and recharge" on Aliexpress and might want to pick up 1 or 2 buds from them.
Currently I have the Ve Monk lite (also had Plus), HE 150pro and the Moondrop Nameless. Nameless is the only one I like out of them.

I dont like the Monks at all though...so hope they arent similar.If they are not super, then at least very interesting.

Also I have heard from one user that Snow-Lotus can compete even with VE Monk. Maybe it is true.

Yes, think I will also go for a dongle once my Black Gold arrives.Since it's 2.5mm, I only use them with the ES100 and the iBasso DC01 dongle. They seem pretty easy to drive?
I'm looking for a MMCX earbud in the $30 price range.
I mainly listen to melodic house / techno. I've heard good things about the **** BK2 and **** PT15.
Will be powered by Galaxy S10 (and possibly EarStudio ES100 in the future, but not for now).
I had the same question a few pages back but no answer yet. Id like to know too...Anyways, does anyone know what are the sonic differences between the RY4S 300 ohm version vs normal vs plus? TIA!
Willsound MK2 MMCX but have to pay more for shippingI'm looking for a MMCX earbud in the $30 price range.
Can't go wrong with the BK2, it is my most used earbud nowadays. Good technicals and balanced tuning for the price. Maybe it lacks in soundstage width, but nothing to complain at the price. Few other buds come with detachable MMCX at that pricing. I think it is $21 USD during the upcoming Aliexpress sale (starts soon today).
Maybe the RY4S MMCX type earbuds? I haven't tried them but am interested based on reviews.
