After doing days of research about which earphones to get, i noticed that there are a lot of chinese earphones loved by audiophiles and normal(?) people lol
brands like Dunu, Vsonic, hifiman, and more.
Is there a reason why chinese brands are popular than other brands like Beoplay, master & dynamic, bowers & wilkins?
i was thinking that chinese brands are cheap, and replicates

Brands such as Dunu, Vsonic, Soundmagic, and Mee tend to offer great value for the price. If you can get IEMs that are perhaps half the price or less than a US, UK, or Japanese maker might sell something of equal quality for, then why not go for it? Initially some of the Chinese brands skimped on build quality to offer great sound at a low price, however that mostly isn't the case anymore(there are some exceptions though).

Remember that the Chinnese work force is HUGE, an as such there's a TON of engineers an audio enthusits within their market working to beat what ever minsonceptions exist about their products
 
Frankly, my two most expensive purchases have been with Chinese companies, Audio GD an Hifiman! [I have like 3 products from Hifiman] an I actually have a 4th product that I REALLY like from a company called iBasso. 
 
What the Chinnese market has is a vast amount of resources an labor pool, which allows companies who are serious about making wonderful products produce them a slightly lower cost without sacrificing quality, as a consumer what you get is some really awesome gear for not a lot of cash! My Audio GD NFB10ES2 cost me about $650 an it's been fantastic! Best money I've spent to date! I've never had an issue with it an it's a steal for the money 
 
So if your looking for IEMS Hifiman and Sound Magic are two companies whos Over HeadPhones I enjoy an can recommend for some quality iems

hmm impressive chinese market..
i recently found out that Beoplay H6 is made in china too. probably that's why the cost is little lower compared to other B&O products.
For IEM, i'm choosing between DUNU DN 1000 and Vsonic GR07. Sucks that they are china made but whatever haha
