CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

I love the sound of the MH755. The main reason I don't use my pairs more often is because they aren't ported/vented on the front so they create an uncomfortable pressure and sucking sensation in my ears. It also affects the sound when the pressure and position of the IEMs shifts in my ears. It's the same issue I have with the TRN BA5. I know most people don't seem to be bothered by this. My ears are just weird I guess.

I use a longer thinner tip which helps and still has the same great sound

Few cheap treats last few days. The tiny plastic cheap Panasonic RP-HJE125, the equally tiny plastic cheap Sony MDREX15... (and even though it's not a ChiFi brand, I managed to get a USED AKG N20 for only £8.54 on eBay UK which I REALLY like).

The EX15 isn't anything special, especially in comparison to it's more popular sibling the MH755 which is miles better imo.

The Panasonic I actually think is quite good, clear, decent detail and nice treble... bass is potent and has a thud, but is slightly one noted. I really like the tips that come with them, perfect my ears.

this 11/11 & black friday i made up my mind to take 2 Hi-Res Audio certified earphone and TRN V90.
first hi-res is Philips TX2. sounds very safe and neutral to me. not too happy.
second one, DZAT DF-10. now this is a hidden chi-fi Gem. it sure it does. it may sound dark, but the staging and details are top quality. killing my TFZ King pro and Shure SE215. its it daily deiver now.
well for TRN V90. almost sound-a-like like TFZ, with much more cheaper price. recommended.
any more suggestion? no, not BLON...

Killing the TFZ King Pro sounds interesting to me. Mind if I ask how much you paid for the DF-10?

I could only find this on AliExpress:

What is your:
1) budget?
2) preferred sound signature - you like neutral, V shaped, harman, basshead, midcentric, treblehead etc?
3) preferred music genres?

i just got an iBasso DC02, and comparing the sound i've been listening to from my galaxy s10e's 3.5 port, the DC02, and my laptop's built in 3.5 port i've realized i was doing most of my critical listening on my laptop, which i now realize is badly peaky on the builtin port. i gotta relisten to all my iems now.
