So DT200 is your preferred Audiosense iem.
Have you listened to the AQ3?

unfortunately I have not heard the AQ3 but the DT200 certainly made me curious because the only thing I wanted it to improve was the bass which a DD would fix. Although it seems the AQ3 is a very V-shaped iem so I do not really know. But the Flagship with 6 BA + 1 DD is also something I am looking forward too and hope it will have the same tuning as the DT200 but with better bass quality due to the DD.

and yeah the DT200 is my preferred Audiosense iem right now (although I have only heard the DT200 and T800)

Audiosense is coming out with a 6BA + DD config? Do you have any more info on it as i'm really interested in that. Even though the T800 has good bass imo, i'd be more than willing to get that one too.

I have no more info on that besides that it was supposed to be out around June or something. But I suspect there might be a delay due to the coronavirus. You can ask the others in the audiosense thread.

Nice list brother, even though im surprised that EA3 is E+ . Been curious about DT200 and shozy 1.1 too, seems like great value IEMs.
Keep up the good work

Thanks, I dislike the EA3 so much because it sounds exactly like how I remember the KZ ZS10 Pro and since the EA3 is much newer, has knowles and has Fiio backing them you would expect something better from them.

well for me the knowles saves the day, they have better timbre and more mature sound than ZS10 Pro, with similar technicalities which is good considering only 2 drivers vs 5 drivers. For me they are better than ZS10 Pro and on par (side grade) to ZSX, v90, KB100, Blon Bl03 on budget class segment. You maybe have been get used into midfi class and nothing budget class can satisfy you anymore lol

That may be true, except the blons lol. The blons transcends price range

Gotta agree with @DynamicEars that the EA3's timbre for acoustic instruments is better than ZS10 Pro. Technicalities maybe slightly less good on EA3 but this is a 2 driver hybrid vs 5 driver hybrid.

I think EA3 is a good beginner set for those new to the hobby but old birds will definitely have heard something much better. And at the price bracket of the EA3, competition is intense.
