but i really dont understand why yuin's earbud can be so expensive...
does it worth the price?
what other earphones are at the same level of Yuins? perhaps, PK1?

The yuins has its own fans. As for signatures there are discussions all over head fi and here.
If I were you...
1) Super.fi.5.pro
2) Altec Lansing IM716 with amp
3) ER4s
4) Mylar X3i
5) Grado SR60
6) Koss KSC75
7) ER6i
8~10) Sonies and Philips

Thanks for your view points.
How if IM716 being unamped?
oops, the more Expensive ER4s is ranked at the 4th place...
Are the sony earphones really that bad?
Even for the EX700 that cost around USD300?

how does the yuin pk2 compare to the x3i?

added into the list, waiting for others to share their experience

i get it on sg there , 60sgd around RM130 , the clear flex u can use shure scl2/e2c , coz the size is almost same and itis fit on the earphone

C3 is suitable for all type of song since it is more balance than 5pro. If u consider to use ur IEM on mp3 player,5pro is more bass than C3,and not as tight as C3.but if u using 5pro on CD player,it sioks....well balanced sounding and more detail than using mp3 player. C3 no such improvement like 5pro but it is still better than using mp3 player.

I doubt that walabies have heard Sony EX700...neither I...but what i read from headfi.org....one of the member there who actually own did rate it above TP10...

Quite interesting on Sony EX700

hehe...how is the improvement by using ES2 cable? Is it the rm130+- worth?

ES2cable improve comfort more than sound quality,ES2 cable is more easy to manage and keep in the case compare to stock cable.in terms of sound,it reduce some bass,and upward some mid and high...but changing sleeves is another better way to change the sound quality or signature.

you def cant go wrong with the high end Audio Technica IEMs.Doesnt have the brand name of Westone and Etys,but its seriously good with a warm sound

i did try the EX700 in gurney plaza that day, but since i didnt try up very well. (just about 15 seconds and then pass to my friend to test)
I just know that the layers of music was brought out very well.
perhaps is because of the new Multi Layer(ML) diaphragm technology? no idea...

es2 cable is good, alot of ppl using that for recabling UE IEM, u can pm walabies for more details

any1 can put SE HPM70 to the list?

why???can u gv a reason?

i guess it's at the bottom of the list too. bloated bass like typical sony earphone. but i might be wrong, i never use that HPM70 before.

erm...i think it rank below the normal sony earphone. The bass is super bloated.

seriously? haha, but need to save up some money 1st...The sf5p really makes me broke. Roughly how much it cost?

maybe the HPM70 u heard is a AP version.. alot of fake SE accessories nowdays!

the one i tested well.. will put my old Altec Lansing ACS45.1 aside.. collecting dusts...

i see alot of ppl prefer x3i more than the ksc 75, maybe my taste is a bit weird lol. I prefer KSC75 more than the x3i
