    Alternatives to SoundMagic E11: Flat, in-ear, similar form-factor, 125€ IEMs

    Hi everyone, I've been using SoundMagic E11 in-ears for a while and I love the sound signature, but a few years ago they changed the cable and it self-disintegrates after 6mo-1y of usage, which is a big problem as I have to replace them. The build quality now really sucks, and I'm at my 3rd pair...

    To KZ PR2 or Not to KZ PR2? Budget IEM Recommendation for This Newbie

    TL;DR : Please recommend me an IEM in the same price range as the latest KZ PR2, with comparable or better clarity and resolution. Thanks in advance! So, I've tried the latest version of the KZ PR2 from a friend, and I'm mesmerized by its resolution and instrumental separation. I didn't find...

    IEM recommendation and preference under $100

    Okay, so I got deep inside this rabbit hole to decide which would be my next IEM (and probably last for years to come, if my income does not change soon). All of this started cause I did not like the Chu 2, I found it to be shouty, the mids were to recessed and there was a peak in the treble...

    Recommend me some budget IEMs

    High, long time lurker here but having trouble finding something that fits the bill. I've been through a few different IEMs in my time, including Kanen KM92 (which were great at their peak and I'd still use them to this day if I could), Panasonic RP-HJE125, Soundmagic E10. More recently I've...

    which of these open backs should i go for?

    i want to get a good open back with a very tight budget of $52. it gets confusing when i see a lot of reviews because they're different, and some even oppose another. what i want the most is clear, balanced mids (maybe if they were bit compromised, i'd be okay, so long they aren't muddy), and...

    Wired IEMs that doesn't go around the ear

    I am looking for good wired earbuds under $50. I don't prefer the ones where the wire goes over the ears (like most IEMs) as they always seems to tangle with my glasses. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

    Seeking Budget Computer Speakers - Aus

    Hi all, I'm after some computer speakers that are cheap, think < AU$100 (< US$ 67). Located in Australia. What's a good non-Logitech option these days? Or is Logitech really the best option in my specific case? Better to spend as little as possible? I'm moving into a small room, but with a...
