Wait do you only get the driver with that?I'd check the DIY thread. They may know if those drivers sound good. (I think they do, but cannot confirm.)

Serious earbud question. I already have these:
Edifier H180, VE Monk Plus, NICEHK B40, FAAEAL Datura Pro, TY Hi-Z HP-32, Earbuds Anonymous 32 and Huawei CM33 half-ins. Although all have their good points (some, very good points), not one of them has the overall warmth or richness--or the lows--of my JVC Gumy HA-F160s.
So, I'm looking for recommendations, with a budget of up to around $50. The JVCs cost me $10 in Canada, so I figure I should be able to get something full, warm and accurate for $50. What should I consider?
With my sincere thanks for any pointers.
I've had the yuin pk2 for a few years and thought they were pretty good until I got a couple new sets last week. For $13 the snow lotus plus destroys the pk2. Also got the smabat st10s silver/black and was disappointed at first listen but for some reason I can't explain they keep sounding better the more I use them. I never believed in break in and maybe I'm brainwashing myself but I swear they sound way better now that I've been using them awhile. Awesome earbuds!
Would be nice if there was a loose ranking in the first post. Not a rigid order as much as a short list of the current best with a few notes like "best value for bassheads" or top buds from 100-200 dollars or something along those lines with a few categories to help people out once the thread is way too big to go through.
Although a brilliant suggestion historically rankings have never gone over well... the original earbuds thread had a ranking list years ago but it caused a period of disagreement that it was eventually taken down in order to maintain the peace. No one would could agree to disagree

wow never seen those before, how do you even wear them?Would you consider these earbuds? Growing up, these type of phones were what I always used and really liked. They had a lot of bass (“Megabass”). I was upset when they essentially went away, until IEMs came about.
A long time ago, during the the time when telephones had magic wires that went into mysterious holes in our walls, we would place these magic items over our heads... carefully placing the band over and on top of our heads while seating the buds into the outer canals of our ears. At the the other end of the cable was a 3.5mm plug which would then be inserted into a very little Japanese man named "Walk" who only if properly energized would play music via magnetic tapes housed in plastic cassettes. Ahhh, the good ole' days how I do miss them.wow never seen those before, how do you even wear them?
Well I dont remember having those kind of telephones when I was a kid, guess I am too young (I am 20).A long time ago, during the the time when telephones had magic wires that went into mysterious holes in our walls, we would place these magic items over our heads... carefully placing the band over and on top of our heads while seating the buds into the outer canals of our ears.

No wonder you haven‘t ever seen those headphones . The vertical disc-like driver shells go directly into your ear canal. They don‘t seal, so they really are more like ear buds. Believe it or not, a lot of them had bass head levels.Well I dont remember having those kind of telephones when I was a kid, guess I am too young (I am 20).
Megaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!Believe it or not, a lot of them had bass head levels.
