I hope by earbuds you don't mean the beats urbeats 3 ! Really, a guy came to me to purchase my rha t20i. He said that his beats earphone is the best earphone he had ever heard. When I paired it to his fiio x1 and listened to a vocal focused song, I couldn't believe myself that a $100 earphone can sound such crappy!! In that moment, I regretted that I am selling an iem of this calibre to a man who likes bass in a vocal-centric song. But i needed the money to buy this, so here i am, happy with my lz a4.
LOL...ahhhh, No!
