Reply to comment by Titouan_Charles in What is the absolute cheapest pair of headphones/IEMs you would describe as enjoyable? by DwellerInIce

So there is nothing below the 50 price range that you enjoy?
Edit : Oops, meant to say 35-40.

The next best thing would be Tangzu Shimin Li but it has too much drawbacks for me, imo KZ is still the king for budget options with their Zs10 Pro X and likely the PR1, tbh everything under 80-100 is so similar that going for the cheapest really isn't going to mean losing on sound quality. The step from a Chu @20$ and a CRN @40$ is minuscule, while going for a VR3000 @80$ is a night and day difference

I can totally see what you are saying. Have you had any experiences with the Aria? They are next on my purchace list since we are talking about the 80 mark.

I dislike the Moondrop tuning and I'm wary of their QC so I didn't bother, especially since I already have the Final A4000 and this fucker blew my mind so hard I don't really look at IEMs anymore, I could use it as my daily driver for the rest of my life and be happy about it. It's so similar to my HD800S that I use the same EQ settings for both
