I have been looking for some budget IEMs. I have had a few, including KZs (EDX Lite, EDX Ultra, EDX Pro X, EDX Ultra) and CCA CSN. But very unfortunately I recently lost my CCA CSN.

With that said, I have came across a few emergency sets:
- UiiSii Hi-705 (NOS)
- UiiSii Hi-805 (NOS)
- UiiSii CM5 (NOS)
- TRN V20 (NOS)
- KZ Ling Long (Used)
- Blon FG

I enjoy balanced sound more, as most if not all of them are far too strong on the treble and bass when I use it for gaming.

Which one is most fitting for me?

The Tanchjim Ola is what I use just because they've got a neutral signature that's good for everything. The KZ Castor are my favorite for gaming by far, with all the tuning switches off. Neither needs an amp or will melt down your credit card.

Thanks for the reply, do you use the Harman silver or the black bass boosted version? I might just find a good condition used pair of those instead cuz they seem to be getting cheaper over time or even a new one with a good discount.

I would suggest purchasing used, provided you're aware the seller is reliable. Got a pair of nice iems for $70ish not too long ago. They're lovely. As for recommendations, I apologize, I'm too new to this space to give you any.

Sorry for the late reply,

I agree on this. If only there were some good pairs available. Most of them are either close to new condition or have hidden defects. But sometimes there are diamonds in the rough, so I'll keep looking by then.
