Listening to the EW200 for the first time. I literally just got them and put them in my ears. These are remarkable for $40 spot. These are clearly an upgrade from the EW100 and comes very close to the EA500 for sound quality. Budget sets are getting so good. Just amazing what you can get for the bucks nowadays. Will have much more to say once I get some time with them.

Does it sound like it? 95%? yes no fingers crossed.
Do we have a $40 budget version of a $279 set or a $79 set?

We have a very good set that costs $40, is how I’d look at it

Yep they have an almost similar Harman tonality, though graphs don't tell the full story, so timbre and technicalities are a bit different. Will do some tests for the EW200 and report back but it is quite a good IEM for sure.

I finally gave in and ordered the EA500s. I can see what the enthusiasm (hype?) is all about. They are indeed bumped up a bit on top but that adds to their clarity. To me, it is their endearing quality. They are not flat by any means, but to me, flat is boring - analytical maybe - but boring. I tend to buy IEMs for their character and these have character. They work nicely on well-recorded music and seem to help with slightly darker recordings to an extent. I was hoping I'd like them and I do. They are keepers for sure.
I gotta quit reading these forums! :gs1000smile: But, I've been saying that since I joined a few years ago and many IEMs later.... :beyersmile:

Paul Wasabii take, not so fast grasshopper, EA500 is worth the extra green.
EA200 driver is good, just isn't as "special" as EA500 driver, which delivers the rest of the experience.
Food for thought.



I agree with Paul. I received the EW200 today. They’re amazing for £30 but I prefer the EA500. But these EW200 sound better than any other “cheapie” iem I’ve heard recently. I will be returning them due to the EA500 winning my heart
