It's cool that they're offering it with balanced cables as a default option.
Yeah, rare to see it offered in all terminations (3.5, 2.5 and 4.4 mm) and without added cost.

That 9 layer piezo is gonna need juice for optimal performance so no surprise balance is included. Probably might sound less than ideal w/o enough juice.

Psst tribrids. Who needs 3 different drivers when you get one in the X49!!

These aren't too shabby for the little they cost. These actually throw out a full ranged sound. Call me surprised. Gonna let them play a bit but these don't suck for the $17 will be on sale for $14 ish soon. Would have been cool to have changeable cables but for what it is.

Wasn't expecting much but these are actually worth the little they cost. Little bit of hi fidelity via single BA. Tiny barrel shell. Tuning is balanced. Actually has some bass. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Very minimal packaging. Only real nit pick I had was that it is so damn small it is difficult to figure out which side is Right and which is Left. Once you figure out there is a rubber ring around the left cable that indicates it is Left.

Listening to them a bit more so. For folks that are getting a set of these. Let them run in a bit before giving them a good look. These are gonna surprise a lot of people. These sound nothing like a cheapo. In fact I am gonna have to dig into my collection but these remind me a lot of my old Zero Audio Singolos. Which I spent a bit over $60 if I remember correct. So ya these do punch way above asking price.

If you go into a purchase of one of these. Go into it not expecting much and be shocked they have more than a competent sound. In other news.

Was told by Jim Tin audioT2 pros will be sold to headfiers for $49. Probably using the old headfier code. Seems to be the sale price on them. I think there are a few places that sell them especially with sales on aliexpress soon. Will get one to try out.

Is that a special price? They are currently on Drop for $42, and Amazon for $53.

I say get em where you shop. I was told that bit of information before the sales period on Aliexpress. I suppose I was a bit late to relay that message. Might be the going price soon during sales maybe a bit cheaper.

Looks like the Tanchjim Hana is releasing on the same day as the Moondrop SSR (06-15) and is selling for around 150 usd in china but not clear if the international price will be the same.

I asked a few shops on Aliexpress, seems most of them don't have the Tanchjim Hana yet. But a few Aliexpress shops promised to bring it in, ETA around 23rd june - which means the Hana will probably be missing for the coming Aliexpress summer sale, bummer. It's number one on my wishlist as I'm a DD sucker, hope it is an Oxygen or even better at 1/2 the price! The shops can't confirm pricing or graphs for now.

FWIW, the Moondrop SSR is now on multiple shops on Aliexpress and some other shopfronts like Hifigo at $39.99. It's not discounted for the Aliexpress sale this round, but u can still stack coupons with it to possibly bring down the price. I'll probably give it a miss as it looks too bass lite for my bassheadedness, though I'm very interested in their SSP (bassier variant).

Hana is not even on the aex official shop yet.
Best deal so far is prolly CCA CA16 ~$50
Yes, I am so happy that last week I ordered the KZ AS16's....I guess I could double down on my investment and get the CCA C16's too, they both have different model BA's (4) for High's.

Has anyone heard and compared both the KZ AS16 and CCA C16? Comments?

Update: received the KZ AS16 and it's great!, huge, but great sounding right out of the box - and super sensitive too. The DK2001 I also picked up on that order is a bit harsher out of the box, so I'll be burning that one in outside my ears. :)

Still curious how the CCA C16 fairs vs the KZ AS16 - as they have different BA's for High end and different tuning.
