I bought these mainly to see how my LG g8x powers a 50+ ohm earphone/headphone. I never owned an earbud so wanted to see how these sound compared to an iem or headphone.
Comfort is pretty good and do not hurt as these don't go too deep. I did the burn in process of 75+ hours.
I prefer balanced sound and without the foams these are bass light. So I put on 2 foams on each side and the bass response improved dramatically without impacting the mids and treble by much. Very deep sub bass was bit low but can live with it. It sounds good on majority of the songs. The bass is very punchy. But bass heads may not be satisfied with these.
After listening to these I prefer these over an iem. I have rha ma750 and these cheap buds sound much much better than the rha. The soundstage is wide and the mids are simply amazing and rha sounds very bass heavy.
Also these sound better than soundmagic e10c which is another 50+ ohm impedance iem.
Clarity is very good.
I have akg k371 headphones and tried to compare the 2 and I prefer both. They have a different sound signature maybe due to their form factor. But I am astounded that so cheap earbuds hold up against a 10k+ priced headphone.
If you own a quad dac phone or have an amp the you should try these. The sound to price ratio is very very high.
These has definitely made in interested in earbuds and will explore more.
Thank you audiostore for making these available in India.
