Just purchased my mass drop noble x and they sound great. Now I'm looking for another iem in my collection under 500. I am a big fan of deep punchy bass so if anyone can assist for iems that would be great. Thanks.

Just got my Noble Mass drop today and---wow! Incredible---
As you know with IEM's--it's so subjective and really a matter of personal preferences---but I can make a couple of recommendations

JVC HA-FW01 Class-S Wood Series In-Ear Headphones $ 270 from onedigitals, Amazon price is $ 450--
Really solid deep bass--nice balanced sound across the full spectrum-- a BARGAIN for $ 270--plus you can get another $ 5 off if you sign up for newsletter- free shipping right now.

MEE audio Pinnacle P1 High Fidelity Audiophile In-Ear Headphones with Detachable Cables-- $ 200 new on Amazon
or save a bunch and buy used for $ 141. Don't be fooled by the low price, these things sound great and put IEM's costing 2 to 3 times more to shame--

That's just a couple that come to mind immediately, there are so many quality products out there, it is overwhelming. I think you would really like the JVC if you like bass----I love them, I have 15 sets of IEM/headphones and The JVC are among my very favorites---

If you're not in a hurry, wait for the Lyra II to show up on Massdrop again.

...$499 is, technically speaking, under five hundred.

My suggestion is comb the FS forum for a deal you'll be able to find some almost $1k when they were new for under $500 that sound amazing
