Thankful for your words. I already have the normal version (RY4S MMCX), and I like it, it seems superior to the RY4S with fixed cable (not yet confirmed). Additionally, I would like to try the sound signature of the Plus version. I ordered a unit. If I had dedicated amplification, I would also do an experiment with the 300 ohm version.
In my honest opinion, the enthusiasm and challenge of the hobby is precisely in the low budget.
Which model it is?Here's an interesting one... You'd think that the EQ changes on this bud would sound really different from stock tuning -- not really the case. The changes are subtle and not very pronounced.
Curious to know if any desktop amps have landed recently that play nicely with ear buds ranging from 16 to 300 ohms?
Hmmm...interesting tuning. Correct me if I'm wrong, does the knight use a titanium driver?
No, I can't find them anymore
looking for something similar in SQ.

Their aliexpress site says it's bio-composite. So I'm guessing bio-cellulose?
Yup. You are right. They look like the perfect candidate for the MMCX mod
KBEAR has really good cables in its offer. They could go with MMCX or 2Pin variant from the very beginning.
Maybe they have a Pro version planned soon, who knows
Speaking of connectors, I prefer 2Pin sockets but when it comes to earbuds, it is better to use mmcx sockets because they have the ability to rotate and thus do not pull the cables as much as is the case with a rigid connection with 2pins. In case the cables are worn over the ears then it doesn't matter what type of connector is used

I've got the EBX, and it seems like they reach a bit deeper than even my ST-10s (Gold/Black) (with the oddball 300-Ohm drivers) - but the ST-10s has better Mid-Bass & Midrange. The ST-10s also fits my ears a little more comfortably - wearing both with cables over the ear.
My go to is the Topping L30 amp.
It is very neutral and transparent, so no colouring of any frequencies. Dark background, no hiss at all.
What I like about it is that it has 3 gain settings, from -9 dB to 0 dB to +9 dB, so it can drive anything from highly sensitive multi BA all the way to full size power hungry cans and planars. Single ended.
Only issue for me is that it gets a bit warm when used for longer sessions at high gain, but it isn't as hot as tube amps.
For a similar price iFi Zen DAC can be a good choice to consider
Some random review for L30 https://audiofool.reviews/2020/09/12/topping-l30/
I had seriously considered the Topping L30... patiently awaited it's arrival but was disappointed with the volume knob & control (I am rather picky in that regard). The same issue with the Topping A50s and the A90 as well. I have been leaning towards the Schiit Asgard 3... very powerful and I liked the volume control. I'll need to track down a iFi Zen to test. Thank you.

I have one on the way (Asgard 3). Definitely looking forward to it. Tons of power and the build quality looks excellent.
