Thanks for input. Haven`t heard Pro2 version myself and reading about it I got impression that they have more bass and sub-bass.
 
If only they could have a bit more bass. I find the Havi's have high quality and speedy bass but the sub-bass just isn't pronounced enough for me. It's my only gripe and the only reason I fever really look for other IEMs.

I felt exactly same about B3P1. I found my bliss with KZ ATE. Of course lot depends on source gear but I find them having huge soundstage and quite close to Fidelio X1. But they might be slightly "laid-back" smooth sounding for some. For me they are just about right because I`m sensitive to highs. But maybe give them a try? after all they are only ~10$ IEM.

I think you didn't read @twister6
 's review. I don't think that they are only decent.

It's not based solely on his review. It's taken as a whole, and there's been quite a few reviews and comments, also on the discovery page, and they were tried by quite a number of solid ears, and all told, it's sees like a really decent sound, but nothing jaw dropping. Sorry.


Maybe for some ppl and gear match they are so-to-say "jaw dropping"? Generalizing in big picture can be misleading. Sorry.

I have the ATE. A pretty good cheapo IEM. Decent across the board. Yeah, the highs are a tad smoothed out, but so is the Tenore, and people seemed to LOVE those. ATE is good for on the go, don't care if they get roughed up or lost pair, and definitely a good gym IEM.

E80S, with inline mic. It apparently exists, just unavailable to purchase. And can't even find the silver version of the regular E80.

Although the 2nd link you posted has the regular version in silver... Might go for that if no S available soon.

You can choose the silver colour on the 2nd link I posted.

  Hello all,
 
To clarify, all three E series models (E10, E50, E80) are available with or without a mic, an inline remote and a Smart Switch. Models with these features are denoted by the S suffix.
 
The E80 and E80S will be available in Gunmetal, Red and Copper. Currently, the only readily available model is the E80 in Red. The rest will follow very shortly.
 
I hope that clears everything up!

  Hey guys, need to buy my girlfriend a headphone, not really a audiophile. something between 15 to 20 pounds. She listens to pop and slow rock mostly. Thank u in advance!

Over-ear or down wearing style? If over-ear style is ok, then KZ ATE or ED10 would be good choices.
