I found the Philips SHE6000 for 8€ (brand new)...Seems a good deal, what do you think?

The delta and jive seem good. Worth arround 25€ here.

Jives are honestly astounding for the price.  Very, very great deal.  The Deltas are a little darker and have less 'artificial' treble if I remember correctly, however, the Jives just did everything so well for that price.

I'm sorry but I've never heard the SHE6000 but sime of my favorite sub $50 IEM's would be RHA S500, Vsonic VSD3S and the KZ ED9. The Jive is also a good option though.

How are those compared to the Jive?

Ill chime in regarding the Q701 from an HTC phone. When I had my One M9 with the Q701 I used it in the area of 70 to 85 percent volume and I don't listen all that loudly. For people that listen more loudly than me, the HTC phones probably wont be enough. The LG V10 on the other hand im usually in the 40 to 50 percent area of the volume control and it sound much better overall. The V10 has a ton more power with headphones over 50ohm.

Q701 works better with amps that have a stronger current output and I found it sounds better on my solid state amps than tube amps.

I'm looking for a specific example.

my Accuphase E205 for example is really good in driving low impedances phones..

They work splendidly on my tube amp, it's more likely an amp-by-amp basis.

To each their coloration!
 
My SS amp has better bass extension, but my tube amp sounds sweeter due to the higher current pushing the treble up in the Q701's.
 
I actually think if the Q701's 2khz area was tamed down a bit sometimes, this would be my perfect headphone. Although, sometimes I do enjoy the 2khz peak for some songs. (Yes I know there's software EQ, but I try to avoid it)

I prefer them all over the Jive. I'm sirrt that I won't have the time for a full comparison now (and this is hardly the right place either) but although I like the Jive quite a bit I find it more shouty and toncause more fatigue compared to the others (the short short version ).

I called the Harmanaudio costumer service today and they're out of stock for the Q701...I have the choice between cancel my order and wait until April...!

Sad to hear that!
100€ was a great price.

 

[luzaka]

Yeah I know, that's why I'm going to wait April!

Is really like to hear it with the new Q701. People love the Lyr with the K701.
