Sorry for bothering with this stupid question.....
Joker gave dba-02 a sound score of 9.2, DDM u gave 8.9, examples, now currently im narrowing down my choices for upgrading from my brainwavz m1 to either maybe DDM or TDk BA200. Now i noe Joker havent review these yet, i just need a score for reference .Also if i dun hav cash to buy Earsonic SM3 v2, is getting the TDK BA200 the next best thing ? assuming, are there almost similiar on how they potray their sound signature? all i noe SM3 are known for their dynamic level for a BA, so are these TDk's the same?
Thank you beforehand
My only experience with BA's IEM are DBA-02, Meelec's A151 and EXS X10(both of these use Siren's, while i think DBA use TWFK), my ears tells me that eventhou technically those DBA-02 with their TWFK, but they are to flat below for my liking, that no Dynamicness in them, unlike A151 and X10 with their Sirens which i really love their bass and mid for a BA because they have this dynamics closer to a Dynamic driver(but not the same), but they fail at presentation.imaging which DBA-02 potrays nicely. From wut i read, this TDK uses Sonion in them, i never had any experience listening to these, so do they have a sense of dynamics in them or it will be totally flat and enemic like those TWFK IEMS?

Yup, and it feels even better. I dare say, it's the most comfortable IEM I've ever tried, even over the GR07. It goes super deep and I don't even feel remotely fatigued.
What tips do you use with them?
For comfort, it's the Ts-100; for sound, it's the stock small dual flange. I actually don't like using Shure Flex tips with it, but the stock single flange tips from the DBA-02 work. They should be similar to the single flange tips from the BA100. It's mostly a compromise between comfort and sound. The double flange tips, however stiff, are still the best sounding tips for the BA200. You can try to source some Sensorcom tips, but I've never used them.
This is my first post on this forum, but I read it lot of time. The reason why I want to post this message is because one week ago I brought these iems (ba-200). And want to warn potentional buyers about one issue that I have with them. The issue is the quality of extencion cable - mine is broke after the one week of use. I hope this is not the issue with the all the pieces in the production, but now I need to buy additional cable to connect my tdk to my galaxy s2. I am dissapointed, because my akg k324p that I use for about 6 years work fine till now... Regarding the sound of tdk's I think it close to the my hd650 laid back with the good amount of bass and the mid frequency, high freq. is located deeper in scene and feels a little bit recessed. Low notes is audible till25hz as I could hear, and high is till 16kHz, because I couldn't hear mosquito test tone of 17.2kHz, but in my other headphones I could clearly hear this tone. Overal this is my first iem's that use balanced armature driver an I satisfied with the sq that they produce. (Sorry for the my english, this is not my primary language, i live in Ukraine).
