Hey y'all, I happily settled on my VSonic GR07 Bass Edition couple years ago but they're getting old and possibly broken. The right side keeps cutting out.
I need to replace them, I thought I would just get another pair or the GR07 classic edition for $100...but...
Given that I've been out of the iem world for 3 years, I was wondering if there's anything better than the GR07s in a similar price range?
 
Budget: $100~$150
Need: sub-bass extension similar or greater to GR07, as detailed as GR07.
Like: balanced to slightly energetic V-shape
Used for: chill EDM, electro swing, pop, TV and Movies
 
Past earphones
Liked: Vsonic GR07 Bass Edition, Yamaha EPH-100 (not enough detail), Hifiman RE-262 (not enough sub-bass extension), Ultimate Ears Triple-Fi 10, Vsonic GR06, Steelseries Flux

Not great: Brainwavez M1, Vsonic GR09 Bass Edition, Vsonic R1, MEE CC51P

Dislike: Brainwavz B2, Klipsch Image X10, Sony XBA-1

 
Thanks!

As far as a I can tell by the other recommendation threads these are still really good value.
 
If you can wait a bit longer you might want to take a gamble and order the new trinity phantom master 4 (don't forget the head-fi discount code). They should be shipping by the end of month. No one has heard them yet, but trinity has a great track record, a house-sound that seems close to what you want (mild V with good detail and extension), and the price will never be as low as now.

Thanks guys!!
I'll read around for both.
The Phantom Master 4 seems like a great deal and good timing. Fairly excited.

If you haven't already purchased the PM4 (I have the PM6 already ordered BTW) you could also look at the RHA ma750. Similar price, excellent sub-bass extension, and very good detail and build quality. Also a slight U-shape. I doubt they would be better than the PM4, but they are worth a mention.

Alright, thanks guys.
 
well...I've been back for literally 2 days and I already have 3 iems I'm interested in
...oh man, this hobby hurts my wallet
I hope I find a good pair I can settle on very, very soon.
