That would be my question as well, especially compared to the Aiwa HP-V99So did I ....what do you think of them!

Do you think they can be worn with cable up?As an aside the Smabat ST-10s gold matches the Cayin N3Pro pretty damn perfectly:
You mean down? I have an mmcx cable without an ear hook so will test it for you, though I suspect it will be wearable either way.Do you think they can be worn with cable up?
Sorry my mistake. Yep, cable down, as normal earbuds. Not IEM style with cable up. ThanksYou mean down? I have an mmcx cable without an ear hook so will test it for you, though I suspect it will be wearable either way.

They arrived, when I listen completely to make an assessment, I will comment on the value of these buds.
Thanks for your impressions. it is assumed with the basic solve this issues but is good know it. The XD05 basic is my first option, many users in my country said is a great dac amp.Yes, it was great until it died on me after 4-5 months of full daily use. Tropical humidity first attacked the volume pot (a scratchiness that progressed to full drop outs in sound on either/both channels... which electrical contact cleaner spray just couldn't solve permanently); battery recharging started acting up; BT receiver range decreased and the battery misbehaved as well; and then a final failure of the amp itself. I was so disgusted I didn't even investigate the amp failure, outside of replacing the op-amps with no success, and simply tossed it into the trash. I hated the rattle they are known to make as a rather large and unruly capacitor would bounce/rub against the inside of the metal case (such a tight fit that thermal tape was impossible to use to cushion/isolate the part from the metal case).
Others have had a much better experience with Xduoo than I. It is indeed a very powerful headAMP and can drive nearly anything out there besides those few oddball low sensitivity power hungry full-sized headphones. Though I think the tech is outdated now and it's age is showing even with the latest updated balanced version.
Do you have a link to view it???This is tube amp ( Laidys ), it's powerhouse for high impedance earbuds if you dun need dac. Below connected to Quedelix. Tried my Orin 450 Ohm earbuds, at 25% of the Volume knob is sufficient loud enough.

which ones?totally unnecessary, but I will be able to see how good the price range 10 - 15 $ is).
I already had two 150 ohm PK1 DIY and another 32 Ohm PK2 DIY, I bought these:which ones?
ST-10 series fit good only with cable ear hookYes the SMABAT type earbuds can mostly be worn cable down or cable up. That increases fit options for this series.
