I just got my package from atomiknOOb and boy do I feel like a little kid at Christmas haha!
So far i'm loving these little bad boys! They have slight V/U-Shaped sound to them but they still play pretty well with different genres of music. The build quality is quite nice and even though the cord is fairly thin, they have a nice feel to them and have little to no microphonics at all. Great IEMs for how much they go for up in Canada. I'm really impressed and I definitely enjoy these much more than what I remember from the FX101, SHE3580, and Meelectronics lineup. Those were much more V-Shaped, colored, and very sibilant to my ears. These keep that fun sounding signature with the extended bass and sparkly highs without being as extreme as the two. I love em!!!
But that's not all I got! AtomiknOOb was nice enough to to send me the Monoprice 8320 as well!!! Thank you soooo much! I was already incredibly happy that I was going to receive an IEM at no charge in the mail and then you included these too?? I'm speechless...
In terms of sound, I really like the monoprice as well! The bass is lighter but they sound fairly flat or at least what I think of as flat listening to my M50. The soundstage is large for an IEM and the clarity is phenomenal.
The only problems I had were with the fitment and comfort because these IEMs are huge!
I still enjoy the sound but I think the TDK will be by go to iems now! It was quite a struggle having to listen to my dad's apple earbuds at school
...
Now I know exactly what all the hype is about for both of these. They punch way above their price and offer quality that you would never expect. Thank you once again atomiknOOb!!!! This is why the head-fi community is amazing. It's people like that that make the experience something else.
