IEM Build & Design
The BR5 MKII is made of acrylic and there is a smooth surface. For both the faceplates, there is a nice blue wood grain finish with the Rose brand name in silver color. The shells are transparent and the internal parts can be seen clearly. The nozzle is straight with metal mesh. The BR5 MKII utilizes MMCX connectors. The BR5 MKII has an ergonomic design and I am able to fit it in my ears comfortably. There is a good construction.
Cable Build & Design
The cable is 4 core braided. For each MMCX connector, there is a translucent and red ring on the left and right respectively. The connectors have a silver housing with grip. There is a memory wire area and the cable is enclosed in a transparent heat-shrink tube which is very flexible. The chin slider and y-splitter are translucent clear. Lastly, the jack is 3.5mm gold plated straight with strain relief and it has a silver housing. On the housing of the jack, there is the brand name printed.
I own both BR5 & BR5 MKII
Watching your last review on Penon CS819 Cable concienced me of buying that cable too, to pair it with BR5 MKII
It would be very appreciated if you could try that combo your self and send me your thougths regarding the sound enhancement on BR5 MKII
I am currently waiting of CS819 to arrive here in Greece

Hi, it helps to boost the bass and adds body to the lower mids.
