I am looking to buy an iem safe from GROUND NOISE for my computer. How would I read the iem specification? Please suggest 1-2 iem

When my feet touch the floor, Blon 03 has humm noise but CCA CRA doesnt have noise.

My PC is using Soundblaster g1 dongle.

Blon has metal shell, CRA doesn't, so anything with resin or plastic shell? Alternatively earth your PC.

Kiera Celeste Wyvern Pro is resin shell and comes with a boom mic. Sounds good but not as much bass as BL-03 or CRA. Better for gaming, locating footsteps etc.

Thanks for pointing out about the resin shells...

Does Moondrop Chu2 Aluminum-Magnesium Alloy shell will be problem?

Guys, can you please recomend me an iem that's good for stage monitoring? I'm not looking for isolation, but for a relatively neutral sound (not too harsh, and not too bassy).
Somebody recomended me the thruthear hexa, but they are a little bit too pricey. Otherwise, I might consider the BQEYZ KC2.
What other ieams would you suggest me, that are not expensive?

Hexa would be ideal and worth saving for.

7Hz Zero is a good alternative for $20.

Moondrop Chu has metal shell but non-removable cable (not the Chu2 which has bass elevated).

Maybe, it's still conductive. Hard to say whether earthing with your Blon is a wiring short to the metal shell. There might also be a difference in how insulating the coatings on metal shells are. Something with a resin or PC shell should solve either of those problems. Similarly earthing your PC case, particularly if power socket doesn't include a third earth connection (two vs three prong plugs).

How is the Hexa with j-pop? Usually, that kind of music sounds too bright with many iems.

I don't listen to J-Pop but Hexa isn't bright or peaky! Bass is pretty light though, so they don't shine with Rock, R&B etc.

Hello guys can you recommend me some iems? I’m looking for a female vocal focused iems with elevated upper-mids but with decent mid-bass as well. something Similar to Elysian gaea would be nice thanks

I had BQEYZ K2, KC2, and BQ3 in the past. They sounded very similar to me, sort of generic V-shaped signature. Instead I'd suggest going for newer models released in past 2 years.

I was thinking of Hzsound Heart Mirror (OG, Zero, and Pro). Neutral, towards bright, without harsh highs, slightly bass light.

Honestly if not for the questionable fit, any one of Etymotic ER2, ER3, ER4 series can fit your bill.

Truthear Zero Red is cheaper than Hexa, but warmer than previous ones. Tin T2(Neutral bright), Moondrop Chu 2 and Tangzu Waner (sub $20 Harman-ish). Just to name a few. There's tons of other options out there.

What's your budget?

What's your budget?

around 3500usd

Wow $3500 USD can get u most IEMs under the sun. What have you owned so far other than the Gaea?

TBH, if you don't have some midFI/TOTL sets, I would strongly recommend you to start at a budget IEM and sample various sound signatures, then upgrade up to midFI/TOTL and call it a day. Very risky to start from TOTL right at the start, in case the sound doesn't suit you.

For budget, something based on your first post would be the Simgot EA500?
