I like the earbuds of Onmyoji for DAP and LBBS for mobile phone so much that I have used only them in the last two weeks.
I would love to post about how much I love their sound but I don't have the talent.
So instead, I'd like to give you an English translation of Onmyoji's and LBBS's review from the following "Kaiser Flathead Series Detailed Crossover Review of Onmyoji Smurf White Bell White Bell Bass Little Black Bell S Reincarnation Jedi Reincarnation" that I've mentioned before.

Onmyoji

What I wrote at the beginning about Onmyoji is that it is the sound that best represents K's sound architecture.
Overall, I rate the Onmyoji as a relatively flawless earbuds.
The first thing that runs through the K's sound tuning style is a large, loose, transparent soundstage for durable listening pleasure.
The tone is then built on this base scene. Onmyoji is based on a large soundstage with both transparent and airy highs, ambient lows and a characteristically very airy midrange.
Not overly tinted, yet still easy to listen to. It is very clinical.
The sound is very dense, yet airy, allowing the listener to understand the white space.
This yin and yang approach gives you the feeling of really swimming. You can listen to all kinds of music with ease.
On the vocal side, you can hear everything from rap to hi-fi audiophile vocals, making Onmyoji the best earbuds on the market.
This is because it is as refreshing as drinking a cup of fresh tea. It's this rawness that allows you to sing the most vibrant raps, but also the most sophisticated godfathers, without breaking the harmony.
Listening to the strings, big compilations and dynamics, the sense of form, separation, dynamics, transients and lines are all at Flathead's flagship level, with the scraped string sounds and vocals coexisting perfectly.
This freshness is a true masterstroke.
Little Black Bell S (LBBS)
====================
Tags: aggressive value for money, sound architecture like Onmyoji, material savings and must be Onmyoji, personal quantification could have 70% of Onmyoji's power. The density and control of the vocals are not as good, but the size summary is much more playful than the price range. They feel good to wear and are not too expensive, making them good value for money, whether you are listening to them yourself or giving them as a gift to a loved one.
Little Black Bell S This earbuds must be highly recommended now. Because the value for money is so obvious.
Between the quality of the music from the sub-flagship of the ear to the flagship, this price range is simply a bomb in deep water, firstly, not for the lower price range, and cuts the sense of range, transparency and resolution.
I think he reproduces more faithfully the tone, backbone and scale similar to Onmyoji.
Of course, those with extraordinarily good ears will be able to distinguish the soundstage, transparency and resolution or Onmyoji, but those with mediocre ears will undoubtedly be misled. My wife has normal ears and she can't hear much difference between the Little Black Bell S and the Onmyoji on certain songs on her mobile phone.
Then, of course, the quality and control of the hardware is still not as good as Onmyoji's, and the vocals are a bit thinner and less dense than his.
The overall sound reference shade reviews, tone and sound architecture etc are similar.
What is there is never lost. You can think of the Onmyoji as the Buddha wall of famous and expensive materials, and the Little Black Bell S as the Buddha wall of the chef's internal everyday cooking with humble materials.
Overall, these earbuds are the best push.
It is ideal for those who want to have a crossover expectation despite its entry price. The sound is well balanced and suitable for any kind of music performance.
Haven't spend too much time comparing them though, but the nylon braided cable is soft and pliable, and the shells are way lighter that I thought they would be. They feel almost weightless in my ear. Sound wise, need to spend more time with them, but I think they have a relatively neutral tuning with a hint of brightness? Haven't tried TOTL earbuds (or even that many earbuds), but amongst all the buds i've tried, these probably have the best detail retrieval and clarity. Might not suit those looking for that warmer and more analogue sounding earbuds sound though. These are just my initial impressions though, need to spend more time with them for sure, but so far I don't feel like I've wasted money at least.
