Maybe someone else has the Yinman 600s and can compare, but if not, my Aurora and W03 Pro are being shipped today to the US, and I will post impressions and comparisons with Yinmans, RW-3000, Serratus etc. after I get time to A/B.

LREY Music is on Facebook, and he responds quickly. with pricing and shipping info. The pricing is reasonable, but the shipping is high, as you will gather from the other posts.

You picked up the Aurora as well very nice. Looking fw to your impressions!

Yes, I have a lot going on right now, but more reason to plug in some great buds!

Hey @Ace Bee how much Lrey Aurora costs (in usd) without shipping? does it come with only fixed cable?

We paid 5000 PHP with group discount for just Aurora MMCX head

May I ask how big your bundle was to get that kind of discount? Thanks!

I think around 115 USD with cable.

Yes it comes in mmcx variant without cable also. No idea what is the price of that.

Mmcx with no cable is about $30 cheaper (2,000 PHP). I ordered the same model of custom woody, one with cable and one with mmcx no cable and this was my difference, to give you an idea.

I think 3-4 should be sufficient. We had 4 sets (initially)

I see. Thanks. I ordered 3 sets and my price was a lot higher than yours and @Ace Bee’s even after “group buy discount”. I wish their pricing were more transparent…

Hmm that's frustrating. Here's what I paid more or less before shipping and PayPal fees:

Here are prices that I was quoted, before PayPal and shipping fees:

Aurora wired - 8000 php
Aurora mmcx head only - 6500 php
Protheus wired - 6500 php
Protheus mmcx - 5000 php
King dragon - 10000 php
King dragon mmcx - 7500 php
Raijin - 4500 php (did not mention wired or mmcx)
Shigure mmcx - 7000 php

10% off for group buy. Seems like Aurora mmcx has the biggest increase? Or maybe you got a good deal

I emailed him yesterday and he gave me the same prices. He also quoted me 3-4 weeks lead time to build.

How long ago did you purchase his earbuds for those prices, @ttorbic. Seems like prices have increased.

Will do! I still owe everyone the comparison of the incomplete Faaeal earbuds lineup Iris 2.0 Vs Snow Lotus 2 Vs Rosemary I wanted to do however. Hope I will find time for that soon.

Looking forward to the comparisons! I do wish you had the snow lotus 1.0 though. It's a Rosemary contender a and I think you would dig it. Especially it's soundstage.

Also, does anyone know anything about the New Aeolian Bells? They're pretty cheap, but don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing

The old Aeolian Bells are a bit mid-centric, but the new Aeolian Bells have a slightly bassier, well-balanced sound.
The new one is actually not as black as the photo on the page below.
