IEM Score List 2023 - What's Your Favorite IEM?

Table updated.

Changes:
  • Score calculation method changed. I now calculate the sound score and the overall score separately, and take the average of the two. The sound and overall score columns were concealed in order not to create a crowded image, and I put the final score as the only criteria.
  • Earsonics Purple added.
  • It was a long time since I first listened to the Earsonics S-EM9 and then I listened to dozens of new TOTL and Mid-Fi IEMs. An audiophile friend had lent me the S-EM9 for the Purple review. I updated the scores after listening to the S-EM9 again. That's why you might be surprised the S-EM9 has fallen underneath.
  • Oriolus MK2 changed to Oriolus Reborn and the build score increased.
  • Some minor score corrections were made on some IEMs
Thanks for the support.

If i'm not mistaken Reborn and MKII is just the cable? What cable was used during your initial scoring for Oriolus?

Thanks for your information! And it is interesting that you gave Shozy BG a score higher than t8ie.
