They were ok, apart from the plasticky housings looking / feeling like they came out of a Kinda Surprise egg. Hippo VB are another popular one but they're really 'all about the bass', without a tremendous amount of care for much else.

 
Thanks.  I never got the hear them myself.  But I remember everyone giving them high marks on bass.

More specific:
 
Using:
 

 
 
Kick Drum speed as ref.
 
Decay is faster than a Trap beat but slower than a synth/Techno
 
A pair under 100 that without eq puts the kick drum upfront at first and them pulls it back when the the guitar comes in. Vocals are clean guitar is clear and the drum is controlled.
 
 
Some folks will know what I am saying.
 
That right out of the gates(box) for sub $100
I'd like the Joe P Public to have access to what audiophiles and bassheads consider affordable IEM Hi-Fi. From that ref we can expand toward the elite (some have been mentioned)
 
If the lurker, starter feels attended to and the experienced audiophile ....then we can really have a place where everbody can enjoy rec'ing next step IEM as they helped build the first step.

Hisound Audio Wooduo 2
 
Also, I second the RHA T10s. These have cold, unrelenting bass that is pure power. It is truly a force to behold.
