    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.

    Kbear Dumpling or Moondrop Quarks?

    I want to buy an iem for the first time. I'll mostly watch anime so the voices needs to be clear and not hurt my ears. So which one will be better for me? Moondrop Quarks or Kbear Dumpling? I can't go above this budget so please don't suggest anything more expensive.... Thanks!

    Are there budget ciem's? ($300 max)

    I guess I have weird ear canals or something, I think the problem are my ear canals are very oval shaped. I have tried numerous ear tips for iems and the only ones which truly fit are foam tips. Foam tips wear out pretty quickly and also become uncomfortable for me due to the pressure they tend...

    SoundMAGIC ES30 experience?

    Hi! In search for a new bass-focused budget IEM, the Soundmagic ES30 caught my attention for just 12€, but searching for reviews lead me nowhere, but reviews of the different E30. Does anyone have/had the ES30? How do they sound for the price?
