[Mild Audiophile]

Hello~

I'm new to this audiophile world, my first audio gear was a year ago, and it's ath m40x and I liked it so much, I never knew a headphone could sounds so good. From then on, I've been quite picky about sound quality, i read at head-fi that a dac could make cans/iem sounds better, so I bought dragonfly black.

I owned Kz ZST but didn't really liked it since the high is piercing my ears, then i bought Takstar TS-2280 and I liked it. But since my TS-2280 broke now I'm looking for a new iem with 100$-150$ price range.
I looked onto internet and RHA MA750i, shure se215 and 1more triple driver has taken my attention.
Any help would be appreciated and thank you before!

iBasso IT01 is one of the go-to recommendations in that price range. It's a great value, overall very coherent and not nearly as dramatically v-shaped as the KZ house sound. The bass in particular is good. Mids are not fantastic (IMO) but good for the price.

Other interesting IEMs in the same price bracket that I haven't personally heard, but which I might consider over the IT01 if I were buying now: Anew U1, TFZ Queen, BGVP DMG.

RHA MA750i will be closer in term of sound signature to you M40x, darker and colder. If you can stretch your budget a little bit, I think Campfire Audio Comet is a good upgrade.

In my country no one sells Anew U1 and BGVP DMG. And from what i've heard, they have v-shaped sound and even have muddy bass(BGVP DMG). I like a balanced sound with good soundstage, and preferably with mic. Is there another recommendation?

Campfire Audio Comet is no option for me since it's so expensive, my actual budget is actually 100$, but after some deep thought, a 50$ budget stretch will give me a much better SQ

Simgot EN700 pro is my #1 choice at that price point. Nice warm sound that will never fatigue your ears

1more triple driver seems to be a good one and I’ve seen it at $80 some places

Hi Mild Audiophile,

215 SE is a good place to start, IT 01 & EN 700 Pro have already been mentioned, these two surpass 1more triple easily.
It may be above your price point in Indo & availibility might be a problem but I also suggest looking into Mackie MP 240
Also honourable mentions are the Shozy Hibiki M1/M2 or Kinera Seed Yin.

Hope you have a great day !
