Hello everyone,
 
A bit of introduction: My name is Konstantinos and I am a new member here! Calling myself an audiophile is misleading, although I really enjoy listening to music with quality to the extend that my budget can afford. I used to own the Klipsch s4 (my only "real" IEM) for around 5 years and I really enjoyed it. I've been using it on a daily basis and lately one earpiece lost connection with the cable (?) so the sound is absent. That is the reason I decided to replace it as far as I feel a bit addicted to music and IEMs

What I am looking for: As my previous choice suggests I love bass although i don't really want it of huge proportions. My budget is <100$ and I am looking for an IEM that is not designed to be worn only over the ear. I mainly listen to Hip Hop, R&B and Deep House. I also listen to Jazz and sometimes classical.
 
After a bit of a search I came across the RHA s500 but I would like to also find more options. I 'm looking forward to read your recommendations!
 
thanks in advance,
Konstantinos

Hi Konstaninos and welcome. Maybe check out the RHA 750 and Trinity Audio Engineering. From personal experience they have the sq that may suit your needs.

Thanks for your response! I read reviews about the 750s and were pretty positive. As I stated in the first post, though, I'm not a big fan of over the ear placement of the IEM..

Hi, sorry understand, maybe check out the Delta's from Trinity Audio Engineering. They are my new drivers and offer incredible sq and come within your budget.
