  Hi all)
Help me plz...
What is better iem under 40$? I listen black metal, melodic death metal and other metal genres.

 

 
Audio Technica ATH-CLR100 iems are some of the best I've heard at under $50, especially for hard rock/metal.  They are also incredibly comfortable with a nice mirror-image form factor so you always know left from right, even in the dark. 
 
They are usually $12.99 or so at any Staples store, or maybe $15 on Amazon.

ahhh, i've never seen those samsung earphones.  i assumed he was talking about the white ones that came with the galaxy s series.  i actually like the look of the new pistons.  if they are brushed metal and not plastic looking like those samsungs.  but the sound is going to be the most important factor for me.    the first similarities that came to me at first sight, were the B&O H3.  although not as circular, there are similarities. 
 
 

Ah, I thought I've seen that new piston somewhere, thanks for this.

So true. Their basic shape is really similar.

I personally prefer the standard kc06 for metal and the kc06a for like edm/hip hop. Mids are a tad too recessed on the kc06a to do metal well least for me. Clarity on the kc06 with its mids work a lot better.

KC06 is very good for metal! I really enjoy it´s speed and forward mids and treble. Slayer is ace on the kc06

Hi, does anyone have the somic mm185/163 and could you compare them to the likes of a Takstar Pro 80? I need something with a bit more instrument separation and a tad more bass than the Pro 80's and from what I've seen the mm163 is a more closed mh463 and the mm185 is a upgraded version of the efi-82mt. I'm not sure which of these sound better, but I would either go with the mm185 or the mh463 since the mm163 has a coiled cable. If anyone has them I'd appreciate any info

Welp, the YinShu purchases were a fail. I waited the requisite 40 days and nothing arrived. The tracking number provided ended up showing the package was never received, and therefore was not mailed out. I placed a dispute about 5 minutes ago based on these reasons, and received a refund within about 2 minutes, lol. He was quick to take my money, and issue a refund, but did not respond once to any of my inquiries over the last few weeks.

  The Titan 1's have owned the ~$100 price point for some time now. Nothing has come about to really challenge it yet.

What about Duoza?
