  Exactly what I have written or typed on my initial post mate.
Something detailed, airy, wide soundstaging  for less than or equal to 100USD.

Cheers!

Thanks mate! I'll have a look at them.
Btw, I already own the monks+ haha, my earbud game just ended and I am looking to dabble in the world of IEM's again
 
EDIT: Are the Havi's still prone to channel imbalance issues?

 

[SeeSax]

Well, I think I'm in for a pair of those SIMGOT EN700s a few pages back. Stay tuned lol
 
By now, I could have bought 12 pairs of CIEMs, a few Planars, perhaps a Stax rig and a few amps....but I'm having way too much fun with these IEMs out of China, despite one bad apple

Greetings to all the gurus, masters, and everyone else in this thread,


After getting my end-game earbud, I am planning to once again have a dabble in the world of IEM's

 
My preference for sound signature are the following:


Wide Soundstaging
Good Detail
Airy Presentation

I mainly listen to orchestral pieces (i.e. Joe Hisaishi), vocal jazz (i.e. Shigeo Suzuki), piano pieces 

Is there any IEM be it chinese or what not in the under $100USD which will fit my needs?


Just a note I already own the following IEM's:

Hifiman RE-0

Hifiman RE-400

Sony XBA 10

I look forward to all your replies.


Thank-you

Have you heard anything about them? Same producer as Ostry it seems. Looks fancy for sure.

I have only heard what the seller has said to me, which is that they are new and very well-received in China. I'm a sucker for it, so I'll give them a go. Will report back

Look forward to that - see if there is some substance behind the pretty exterior, and if those huge vents have a function beyond the cosmetics.

  hey @1clearhead,
 
so is the isolation good for the BK50? very interested, like can i block out the outside noise on public transport?
 
thanks!

 
They're pretty good! I've used them on the Beijing subway system and by far it does a great job for me! I still can hear plenty of details from end to end and wear them for long extended listening sessions.
 

  Nice job @1clearhead. Now I'm torn between Havi B3 Pro1 and BK50

 
Thanks!
 
Havi's has always been a great example of what a soundstage should sound like for many that own them. I only could speak for the BK50's, which by far out-staged many of my current IEM's and that pretty much says a lot from the one's I own.

 
Add the shozy 0/ostry kc06/tfz series in

 
Since I don't own those, I can't comment at the moment.  

 

  Could You please use Piston 2.1 original, JVC Spiral Dot or Creative 930i tips and close vent holes with piece of tape on 808 to compare vs. BK50 ?
And use some of the following songs:
* TOOL - The Pot
* GoGo Penguin v2.0 - Murmuration
* Periphery - Psychosphere
* Steven Wilson - Luminol
* Dead  Letter Circus - Here We Divide 
* Dream Theater - Lifting Shadows off A  Dream / The Mirror
* Eidola - Contra: Second Temple
 
I wish to know differences in soundstage/imaging, bass tightness/response and midrange while using same tips with 808 & BK50.

 
Gulp! .....I'll try my best.

  I do have the original Piston 2.1 silicone tips and give some feedback later this week. I can't promise the same songs, though.

Miss out LZ-A2s

I wouldn't call the A2S particually detailed or airy.

Airy, detailed and WIDE SOUNDSTAGE?
 
Sounds like a perfect description of the Havi B3 pro 1. 

 
Oh and it's below 100USD as well.

My main concern is with channel imbalance seemingly experienced by so many other users....thats why I did not include the B3P1 in my list......unless they made a change?

 

[mochill]

what would be the best iems with an airy treble feel akin to my DT990 pros? Budget <$200
