@gugman I have the Shockwave III, and the HK6 is on its way (hasn't arrived yet). I'll try to compare the 2 for you, once I have them. I don't do reviews, and I don't really post my detailed opinions on audio gear as I'm over 50, and my hearing is very much NOT what it used to be, especially in the high frequencies, so I KNOW that what I hear is different, probably by quite a bit, from what other people may/will hear. But I should be able to at least compare the 2 
. If somebody with golden ears (mine are NOT) who has both comes along and does a review/comparison of the 2, do trust HIM better

Those are the carbon nano tube ones? Tuned by LZ of the LZ A4 / A5 design?

I have no idea why I haven't tried this till now. This sounds pretty great. This in single end beats up on balanced set ups. Due to that 3D switch and XBASS. Oh man. The weak link is the Fiio Adapter. Upgrade to that I expect tomorrow.
Some earphones lack soul. These are the opposite. Love the HK6. It has been a very unexpected find. These remind me of the most important aspect of being in the Hobby. Enjoying your music.

This is interesting. Maybe one of the cheapest 5 BA customized universal option. Was browsing this vendors site today and these seem to be on sale for less than a $100. Anybody that wants to try a 5BA customized universal earphone from Aliexpress. This looks like a good option. Very curious how good these are. Using all Knowles BAs. Seems to be legit.

Oh I get it now. Their standard black and clear is less than a $100. to customize it cost more $129.50. With upgraded 8 core SPC cable and custom plates they are $159.. Still a good deal considering all other 5 BA Universals cost more and don't know what BAs they are using. This might be this companies Trojan horse. I bet these sound great for less than $100 spot.
Anyone take one for the team? This sale seems to be going on for the next 28 days too. This might give the old IT01 a run for sound quality for the same price. Considering their next offering with 6BAs cost more than double. These have piqued my interest. All the reviews left on the site are 5 stars as well. Hmm. Interesting.

How do you get the upgrade for the drivers for "better bass and vocals"? Ask for Upgrade 1?
