Le01 is very efficient. No amping required and I don't expect amping it will show any major improvement.

Le01 is definitely much better than EP630 in term of SQ.

If you don't need isolation at all, get KSC75. Of course, don't expect you can use it in noisy places or library.

This looks interesting. Would it perform nicely with R&B, pop, and rock? Can't decide on whether to get this or go for something RM200+. Not sure if I can hear the difference sweat.gif

Hmm, this piece of IEM seems to be pretty promising biggrin.gif

I was planning to get an OEM EP-630 from Neologian; but stumbled upon this LEAR Le01 and apparently the latter is better sounding based on this review. And the price difference between the two isn't big, with Le01 costing some RM20+ (based on GodLuvSxS' promotion rclxms.gif) higher only...

hmm.gif Still thinking.. I'm planning to get a Sandisk Sansa Clip too. If I get the Clip, I'll probaby get an Le01 to pair too..
As there aren't many IEMs around this price range too, while the Bijou is at least twice the price..

Aiya, don't know how la, just don't buy anything la doh.gif

If you use the included bi-flange on Le01, it is about as comfortable as EP630. Le01 might look a bit cheap on the outside, but you are not paying your money for the look. Anyway, EP630 isn't that good looking either..

to be honest the Lear doesn't look that good to me so naturally i'm quite doubtful with it's quality. with all the reviews here i might be proven wrong.

Just received the package, very overpowering indeed for me at first, had to turn my ipod volume down a notch down or two, the volume is already at 50%. Decided to change the provided eartips to Sony Ericsson, which has bigger 'holes' than Lear's and it sounds even better. Now onwards for some burn-in sessions...

It offers some isolation for me, still can hear some outside noises though.

how is it compared with X3i?

Bro u mean the sound is as good as X3 and the Bass is as good as EP630?

As wat I know X3i is lack of midrange in my phone sad.gif and I might sell my X3i (X3i is a great IEM just that it doesnt pair well with my phone)

X3 and X3i is two different IEM. I don't have X3i to compare with so I can't comment on it.

Not sure, X3i is good IEM but I am looking for earphone instead of in ear type. Prefer Yuin PK2.

If I can find Yuin PK2, I will sell X3i lol~
