Headphone/ earphone type: IEM
Budget: IE80, UE900s, UM Pro 30, or reshell my TF10s.

I will vote for IE80

Used the IE80 and compared it to the UE900 and I would say the IE80 sounds better, overall, considering the genre you listen to. Your mileage may vary.

Consider EarWerkz Supra 2 as well

guys, is there any cheaper alternative for the apple earphone ? Please see the spoiler for the pic



I thought of getting the earphone from xiaomi, cost rm50 ish only which is way cheaper. However,i m afraid that the quality wont be same as apple ear phone.

I m not an audiophile, but i just want an cheaper alternative with can produce same sound quality as the apple earphone.

The earphone mainly for my xiaomi note . haha.

First of all, thanks for the quick replies guys.
Seems like ie80 is leading the votes. It is my cheapest option as well
Earwerkz is abit out of reach for me but seems like an interesting option as well.

Well, i replaced my tf10s with a westone cable, so the holes got bigger already. one side has gone loose and keeps detaching from the earpiece. Not sure to reshell the whole thing RM700(null audio @ singapore) , or take the risk to just buy another westone cable RM270 (with the risk that it still will be loose).
Don't wanna throw this baby away

The Supra 2 is around IE80 price though.

I'm sourcing it from overseas though, as i am abroad. The senheisers are relatively cheaper in Europe

Sennheiser Momentum In-ears or the Dunu DN1000.

Never get urself a pair of XP1/2/3, 99% of the buyers regret
If you like bassy sound, TTPOD T1E.

Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 wireless

Superlux HD681 EVO + an after market mic

M50X, Beyer COP

Honestly.. if i think you like the TF10 sound sig, you may find IE80 too dark, UE900 is close to your TF10 except it sounds more balanced (less fun!). Out of the options you mentioned, i suggest you audition the Dunu DN2000, with spiral dot tips if you can
Cannot comment the on UM Pro 30.

Thank you for the reply, will look into it!
Any example for after market mic?

gonna check this out for good and low price headphone/earphone

Is the new Sennheiser Momentum wireless already in Malaysia?

yes, the xiaomi one is a good alternative.. probably the best value for money earphones currently out there.

I never liked the apple earphones, didnt think it sounded good. Their earpods are a marked improvement from their old earphones, but I still dont really like it coz of the horrendous isolation.

So yes, xiaomi pistons would be a good buy IMO.

you should've get it during the april 8 (mi fan sale) piston is like RM28 if u buy via paypal

go and get PCwork recabled KSC75...
