Sort of really late eh, but how did you manage to open it?
My cables died, and instead of buying a new one, I'll try to solder one directly to the driver, althought I don't know how I can open it without destroying the housing, thanks!

Oye,make sure the jack part is ok before you try opening the shells........

Hope this helps, there is a description under the vid.

How good are these for rock music (Stuff like Swans and that new Chelsea Wolfe album. Maybe some late Beatles as well.)? Would the VSD3 or the VSD3S work better for that sort of thing?

Off-topic, but remember how I said I got that Sound Intone E6 for the heck of it a month ago? A VSD3S it ain't (obviously), though I can say it's almost exactly what I expect from such a product. Severely V-shaped with very prominent bass. For quick impressions, I'd say it's appropriate enough to say it's like a Xiaomi Piston 2, but with a more comfortable fit and better isolation, though overall sound quality goes to the Xiaomi by a little bit. It has tighter bass in similar quantity and everything just sounds a tiny bit cleaner. Not bad though, maybe I'll create a random thread for it just because I don't see its own thread anywhere so I can post some photos and slightly longer impressions (wouldn't be surprised if it was mentioned in the massive Chinese IEMs thread though).

So, I just got the VSonic VSD3 (Non S, Non detachable.) yesterday, and I've already listened to them for about 8-10 hours. I have a few thoughts on what I think of them as my first well researched IEM. Needless to say, I am very happy so far.
 
 
First of all, the bass. In one word, it's delicious. The bass is huge, punchy, and has great tone. It's just enough to give your music a lot of oomph without overwhelming it. Well, it can get a bit boomy if you're listening to more quiet music (for example, the electric bass on The Mountain Goats' "Stabbed to Death Outside San Juan" is a bit too overbearing (By the way, John Darnielle's voice sounds particularly clear and clean on these) There's something really fun about the bass here, and it's not something I've heard yet (As I'm still pretty new to the audio world).
 
 
The midrange and treble are great too. Guitars and violins just sing on these. I think i would describe these as lush sounding with a good amount of attack. Not really "In your face," but there is a lot of presence and energy here. The treble brings a lot of space and detail into the mix, but it can get pretty sibilant. I expect the sibilance to improve with burn in. The VSD3's are a lot of fun to listen to, while still keeping a lot of detail and neutrality in there as well (Don't use these for any sort of monitoring, though.)
 
 
The presentation suprised me, with an intimate soundstage that has a decent amount of separation. They definitely don't sound like you have something in your ears, which is a huge plus. You get the feeling of instruments popping into a certain place in the world, and while that space isn't too wide, it's very clearly defined. The isolation really suprised me as well. I'm currently listening to music at a reasonably loud level, and I can't hear my mechanical keyboard at all. Nothing I've ever tried can do that.
 
One thing that I kind of dread: These are really easy to drive. This means that I can hear my sound card in a way that I wasn't able to before. That means.... Static. I can hear static and clicking that my phone does for the first time, and I can hear it a bit on my computer as well. However, it's not present enough for me to be concerned, considering I paid $45 for them. However, I know that the future of spending money on DACs and amps draws closer...
 
In Conclusion: Yes. Just yes. I like my Sennheiser Momentums because of their warm tone and great detail. I like my Grado SR60i's for their shimmery treble and addictive mids. These have a bit of both. Maybe the sound isn't as refined, and maybe their flaws are a more obvious, but this is a sound that has the good parts of both of my big audio purchases. And I can take these anywhere and block out the world with them? Pinch me, I have to be dreaming.

Hi, I want to know how is the pairing with the ibasso DX-50 dap? Someone can give me feedback in the VSD 3S - DX-50 combo sound? Thanks!

Alright so to all the problems posed by the poor cable quality, I found a new replacement cable different than the one supplied by vsonic. Here is the link to where I bought mine: http://world.taobao.com/item/521141218215.htm?fromSite=main&spm=a312a.7700846.0.0.tRpNlE&_u=f1sh0nrqcc7f

Sony Hybrids, but you have to use a tweezer to stretch them a bit before and then over the bore.

I dont remember having to stretch my sony hybrids over them...maybe mines were loose to begin with..

Yup the sony hybrids pair well with the vsd3s

For anyone curious, i can comfirm that the VSD3s use t200 comply tips.

Open it up there is a video on how to do it on YouTube. I think you may just need to re weld a little wire
