If ur willing to top up a little, consider getting the Vsonic GR07 Classic. Currently on sale at LMUE (but the sale ending today i think).

If ur looking for best value for money, at the moment I would say the Fidue a71. Beats both the Im50 and adagio III without much of a challenge.

If not, u can try looking out for the Vsonic GR07BE as well. Or, if u can get a good deal, try the T-Peos altone 200 which is brighter and has a nice quality to its bass (but if ur sensitive to bright earphones, stay away from the altones)

Fidue u can get it thru lendmeurears website, theyre based in singapore, but ship free to Malaysia, they occasionally have offers. The Vsonic ones also can get from them. The altones are the toughest to get at the moment, as I only know u can get them through a member in head-fi forum and also ebay.

But if ur comparing the IM50 against the adagio III, i would personally go for the IM50. The last time I auditioned the adagio III was in Jaben and I just wasnt very impressed (but that just my own personal taste).. but then again, i also prefer the IM70 to the IM50 (but IM50 might suit u better since im guessing you're all about that bass ).

All those that u mentioned are over the ear except for FAD heaven II which easily makes it the easiest to put on and take out. However, comfort might be a different story, different people will have different size and shape ear canals. But for me, GR07 is the most comfortable, but in terms of sound quality, A71 sounds the best to my ears. IM50 and IM70 sits somewhere in between. Actually my least favourite on your list would be the FAD Heaven II.

Comfort wise it is decent... its not uncomfortable by any means, when u first put it on, u might struggle a little, but once u get the fit right, it is pretty comfortable.

Im guessing you're using the blackfriday17 coupon on lendmeurears? its a really good offer. Better get it before the offer disappears.

I also have their flagship a83, and even tho its a chinese company, they still managed to make some amazing hardware both design wise and sonically. It is by far the best ive owned. But i also read on headfi that theyre quite good with honoring their warranty, so I wouldnt worry too much about it.

Hope i didnt over hype them, I really do hope that u enjoy them. The shipping will depend on which option u selected, the express takes only 2 days, but the other option take about 5-7 days

Check out the Fidue A83, it is one heck of an IEM, go read the reviews on head-fi and u will understand what i mean.

I own them and they are by far the best pair I have ever owned. The JVC FX850 are really nice as well, I like how the wooden housing makes drums sound like ermmm well, drums. But that being said, I find it too bass heavy for my liking. The RHA T10i i have not tested, but from what I have read so far, its all about the Bass, no treble. Not so sure about the Tpeos H300 tho, I used to own the Tpeos altones 200 and they sound great with a nice articulate bass and very bright vocals. Female vocals sound amazing on these, but sad to say it gets a little fatiguing and it is pretty sibilant.

So without a doubt, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Fidue A83. If not then u can try the Sony A3 or the older H3, its not bad, but just not my cup of tea.

Hmmm.. actually, when lendmeurears.com is on sale, it is approximately RM900+. I got mine for about RM910 when it was on sale on that site. But all depends on the exchange rate, since lendmeurears sells their goods in singapore dollars. But oh well, since its over your budget, then i guess cant be helped. Next best would be the FX850 then (which is really expensive in KL, but many times cheaper in Japan)

Theyre using the same cable, the mmcx cable. You can use the Shure cable on the A83, but u cant use the A83 on the Shure coz the stock cable comes with a notch on it which locks the cable in place.

If its a Original unopened unit, then its a good value.

The H3 is really nice especially if u enjoy more bass centric IEMs. But even tho its more bass heavy, it has some nice notes in the mids and highs. At the original retail price of RM999, I would rather get something else like the Fidue A83 or the Dunu DN2K, but since its only RM600, I would say its a real good deal.

Not so sure about the hd280, but definitely much better than the se215 imho. But best u go test it out urself. They have display sets at sony outlets and also at Jaben.

whats your budget and what are your preference in sound signature?

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.

Guys, can recommend me a pair of wireless earbuds which have pretty decent sound quality which is suitable for running/exercise (ip rating).

My budget is ~rm500 but the lower the better.

I am currently using a pair of wired fidue a83. I do love them to bits, but they're not suitable at all for exercising. I know I won't be able to get sound quality even close to that of my fidues but at least a pretty decent quality sound with good clarity and decent mids would be nice. But am not overly picky since I'll use it while running, doubt I would be too nit picky on the details.

Bought a Hifiman TWS600 demo unit from stars picker for RM150. They said they wanna get rid of it coz demand for this unit very low, not many people like the sound signature. Good thing I quite like it. The sound signature it quite unique and unlike most other TWS. For rm150, i think it was a pretty good deal. Curious to wonder what others think of this TWS? Am i the only one who kinda like the sound of this TWS?
