AAAAAAAAA

I bought 5 pairs of wired headphones recently, Mi Pistons, KZ-ATEs, DZAT DF10, Rock Zircons and VE Monk Plus

In terms of audio quality, I'd put the mi pistons on par with the Monks at the bottom, with the rock zircons next, then DZATs, then KZATEs at the top

This is broadly the same for microphone quality as well, though the DZATs may be slightly edged by the rock zircons, and the mi piston has a much better mic than the monk, though for the money the monk is incredible.

The KZs are far and away the best, really not a whole lot worse than my shure se215s and for a sixth of the price. The only problem is they're bulky as hell for in ears.

I recommend the zircons though because they don't look weird and sound good and are cheap enough you don't mind ****ing them up on a commute.

Also the zircons and DZAT have really nice braided cables. The zircons feel much higher quality though. The DZAT also comes with a carry case, a notebook and a pen (for some reason). While the DZATs sounded good the fact they were made of wood threw me off, I actually ended up giving them to my sister

I have all the above with the exception of the DAZT's and the Zircons (arrived broken and i have not received replacements). I also have a couple of pairs of the original VE Monk, the sound is amazing for the price.
I bought a few Knowledge Zenith last year, and thought they were okay, but did not think any were exceptional.
I think the Boarseman K25 have to get my vote for the best for sound and price.
The TY Hi Z HP 32 are another decent pair. The list is ever growing I have a pair of FAAEAL 32ohm on their way to me (ordered on 15th of June).
There are some amazing quality products coming from Asia at the moment and price is no guage. It is a great time to be buying

Which is the model of KZ you guys are referring to? I went to buy a pair and, somewhat confusingly, found both KZ-ATE and KZ-ATES models! I'm assuming the slightly more expensive KZ-ATES are the best?

:edit: Oh I see the "S" is for sport!

Just under 3 weeks for delivery of an IP camera.

That is the shortest delivery time I have had in a long while.

Ended up ordering the ATE with no mic model!

Cheers for the replies. I think I'll order a couple different pairs mentioned as price is decent

I was just swapping out my earphones and i realised that i forgot to mention the Tennmak.
I have a few different pairs, The Piano do not really suit my ears, so i do not wear them often..
A few of the pairs that i have are no longer in stock, but the Banjo and Dulcimer are great. The Dulcimer were hard to get, they often sell out, so if they are in stock, worth getting now. The Banjo are snug fit (they are the ones i am putting in now). Great sound from them and noise cancelling is great. I do not mean to oversell them, it is just that i forgot to mention them in the last post, and they are definitely worth getting.

Earbuds in, Blackalicious on and walking out the door

I was just reading about this somewhere else, although i know it is not something that is always required here, it may be handy to have.

I chose normal China post slow delivery.
Banggood €7.02
Amazon £28.98

The chillow is filled with memory foam, which is soaked in water by putting the nozzle to a tap. A pillow, or cushion pad or pad that heats up significantly slower than a normal pillow . Due to the fact that the moist mass is much slower than air or a dry pillow, the pillow stays much cooler than usual. Since the pillow is not as comfortable as a normal pillow, it is not intended to lay in direct contact. Instead, you can either put it in a pillowcase, or simply under your pillow . The chillow is of course waterproof.

Did anyone actually try one of these? I'm curious but I'm worried about the "nozzle" coming loose and soaking my bed!

Im looking at getting some sports bluetooth earbuds for cycling.

Two front runners are the Meizu EP 51s and the Xiaomi Mi Sports earbuds.

Anyone use these or can recommend others?

I've tried all sorts of running headphones, loads and loads - they all break from water damage (sweat, rain, hail, snow) but the most recent set I am using have lasted the longest - I have the corded ones and the wireless ones:

There's a pair of bluetooth earphones on Amazon, made by TaoTronics, cost about £20, that I bought recently. For the price, the fit and the sound quality are outstanding, I've been very surprised how effective the smaller hook that fits inside your ear rather than over it is. They're rated at 4.4 out of 5 based on over 5.5K reviews, which is a pretty strong endorsement.

I bought those as a joke for my colleague so he'd get a package with some random item inside it and not know why it came to him.......... I now want them myself........ they're deadly.

The description looks to be written by someone with an old Irish soul as well.

Only just bought these ones myself the other day James, the Bluetooth version and I didn't see your post here until afterwards. They seem pretty decent quality, hopefully these ones last, I haven't had much luck with any others I have tried while running with the sweat and rain eventually killing them!

Not made us for amature marathoners!

The last set I had would randomly skip songs on me after the rain or sweat got into the button.. really annoying!

Bluedio speaker for €25
Mine arrived today
Good speaker for the money.
It won't compete with your home cinema but it's grand for the money.
I have a Xiaomi speaker that cost around €23 and it's a lot better than that.
The surround button doesn't do much though.
Gold isn't usually my thing but must say it does look cool and it's also very well built.

Any decent iPhone battery cases available?

Anybody buy any of the brand named micro SD cards? Of course I'm wary of fakes but surely something like this with thousands of orders and positive feedback would be legit?
