Yamaha EPH-100 modern-day alternatives?
I've been out of the game for a few years now, ever since my EPH-100 died. Been only buying chi-fi's and some mid-tier TWS iems ever since. Some sounded decent, while some where okay-ish. But none wowed me like the EPH-100. It's musicality and fun sound is just insanely good to my ears. It was...- rtorres

Why stick with Apple's design? Well I do know the click wheel is really nice to use, but can't you guys think of any other designs? Don't get me wrong though. I just don't want other people seeing Fiio as another chinese knockoff of some sort.- rtorres

Hello, I'm a big fan of the Sony Mh1c and planning to replace it anytime soon. My budget is around $100-$120. I want an iem in which the SQ would really justify the $80-$100 difference from my Mh1c. I mostly listen to pop, rnb and rock. On my mind Im planning to replace it with xb90ex...- rtorres
