Who don't like some Ds on the shells!
I also think some of these guys on aliexpress actually get shells, drivers, tips and cables delivered to them per need of the middle man probably from OEM company
And said middle man puts together the earphone hence another reference to the DIY earphone.In fact you can go to www.lunashops.com and order up a variety of BAs/ dynamic drivers, shells/ housings, cables and tips all separately and actually come up with your own iem. These are shells you can buy from lunashops
This is another lunashops DIY earphone kinda looks like the Toneking. Maogosi earphones

Weather delays? What ever happened to that "Neither rain nor snow"… thing
Toneking TK2's out of the box, all the tips sent are tiny, built for fairy ears I think, once suitable tips sorted they sound quite like my Rose Mini 6 so rather pleased. Not a bassheads dream but I have other iems for EDM. Great clarity and top end, wide soundstage, well balanced. Time to burn them in. Also got the Rose North Forest today, still on the fence with those, sound is holographic, bass is big but not punchy, vocals sound a tad metallic but again some burn in before I make my mind up

Or, 4ba plus 1 dynamic graphene Tesla...
This my friend is what the IT04 is. Well with 3 BAs Oh man can't wait for that iem.
Ya like it takes long enough just to get to the US from China. Then we have to deal with the weather. To be fair NE has had their share of heavy snow.

All the more reason to buy the just the buds offerings that some sellers have and just get a cable you like for it. It doesn't come with a case and as you mentioned the included tips seem child sized almost.

A few days ago, i had asked inputs on Magaosi X3 impressions. In the end, following suggestions, I have placed order for it. Anyone who is having X3, please feel free to comment in the dedicated thread, i thought i would create for this.
Hopefully, i will get it soon, and can post my impressions here.

I only have the Magaosi K3 and like it very much, on another note put double flanged tips on the TK2's and BLAM! bass is good

I ordered one of these Noisezero BT cables as they get good reviews...
What more can you ask for. IPX4 splash proof, nice 14 hour battery life, aptX, good reviews for the sound that say the sound field enhancement works. Not LDAC or HD aptX but my BT listening is podcasts and some music on the go but not critical listening. Seems to do alright as far as sound though...https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=https://post76.hk/news/2017/07/600-%E5%85%83-%E6%BF%80%E8%AE%8A%E8%97%8D%E7%89%99%E8%80%B3%E6%A9%9F-eops-noisezero-wx/&edit-text=&act=url
Also, took a look at some pics of the Semkarch filters to compare vs. the A5 filters. Better pic on the NiceHCK sit and the thread/groove count is the same. I might still bite on the Semkarch and if so I'll get the A5 filters too. They look like a match but even if not they will probably be easy enough to sell on to an A5 owner.
Edit: Bought a Semkarch so I may just be the DT tester. That and the BT cable will be a nice wireless set-up for now. Since Sony BT is kinda dull sounding and not sure how the WX+ cable will sound(other than the enhanced separation countering some BT compression), I took a pass on the filters till I hear how the Semkarch and it's stock filters sound. Might, esp. for BT, want to go brighter and even try someones older A5 filters. Won't know enough till I try so no point in buying those filters yet.

These are new and something interesting from QKZ: the VK1. They cost 18 euros, which is more than double that of the other IEMs from the brand.
My guess: these look like the TRN V10 for a reason. The V10 was the first IEM made by two ex employees of KZ, but had some faults like too piercing highs. I think this is KZ’s revenge... ‘We can do it better, guys.’
