Because I have some drinking to get to, I'll keep this short. Here's a copy/paste job from my latest review at Headfonia:

“KAEDE isn’t good on the train, the plane, or at the gym. It leaks too much to use at the library. In truth, it is a pain to use anywhere but in the quietest, calmest environment. And why is there still no neck cinch? Ho hum say I.

KAEDE (either version) is meant to be enjoyed at home. And there, it is supreme. For apologetic treble heads, bettering it may be impossible. While I prefer Type II, I’m sure that many will prefer the original. But I reckon that most will find more to enjoy in II. It is slightly more laid back, and sweeter, than KAEDE I. And if that is your thing, you won’t find a more balanced-sounding, better-detailed earphone out there.”
