It’s a great earphone. Too bad they don’t sell the hybrid version anymore.
I agree too - the fixed cable sucks. I plan to convert mine to mmcx.

they sell "noble metal Diaphragm" version instead of "Beryllium Diaphragm" version at taobao right now, does anyone have a clue what "noble metal Diaphragm" really mean?
I’m 99.5% sure they’re referring to a titanium diaphragm.

Well, the secret is out. I'm glad more people will experience these now at least.

I am lucky that I bought before this video is out. Cannot wait to get mine to reach me soon.
I just used my Tin T4 $20 voucher and got them for $39usd delivered. Might take a while to get here but I’m cool with that.

Is the UrbanFun easy to drive? Is easier than the BL-03? Looking to run it from cell phone. LG V35 as well as my nephews Samsung El Cheapo J3.

I run them from both a Samsung S9 plus and an old LG V30 (as well as a FiiO M6 with the FiiO E17 Alpen amp too). Similar to the Blon 03 to drive but are able and stable with less power.... IMHO. Sound great from LDAC using the Radsone ES100 too.Is the UrbanFun easy to drive? Is easier than the BL-03? Looking to run it from cell phone. LG V35 as well as my nephews Samsung El Cheapo J3.

Good call, totally forgot my 20 buck voucher, was it easy to apply? Noticed Linsoul said not shipping until 'the end of the month' is that March or just not been updated since February, appreciate many tings going down over there.....and hear now it seems
I had to send them a message on their website so they could fix my voucher because it didn’t seem to work. The voucher they emailed didn’t have an expiry on it so I wasn’t sure.Good call, totally forgot my 20 buck voucher, was it easy to apply?

Do these still have a beryllium diaphragm? Information seems to be confusing atm.

@dharmasteve thanks for your help. Good to see Urbanfun has another winner after so many years. I bet the V30's high impedence mode helps drive those suckers. I remember that hybrid they had like 4 years ago. Then they made something with the same name and it only had a single dynamic which caused a lot of confusion.

With the LG V30 using a 3.5 adaptor jack with the Urbanfuns, tricks the V30 into it's quad dac mode and gives some extra volume to the sound. Surprisingly the Samsung (exynos) s9 plus has a cirrus dac and sounds almost as good as the V30.@dharmasteve thanks for your help. Good to see Urbanfun has another winner after so many years.
