Left woofer on my BA-200s went out on me a few days ago (a couple months after the bottom half of the cord failed and had to replace) and I am pretty disappointed. I have the RHA MA750 and HifiMan RE-400, both of which i really like, but there was something about the BA-200s that I absolutely adored. The sound signature is just so smooth and easy, but also very detailed and clear. Couple that with the fact they were by far the most comfortable IEMs I've ever had (I have very small ear canals so comfort is often an issue with me and IEMs) and I'm worried I won't be able to find a replacement I like as much within $200 of the BA-200's price. I would just get another one on eBay but really don't want to have to replace it again in a year when it inevitably fails (build quality isn't exactly stellar).
With that said, anyone who's BA-200s have failed on them had luck replicating the fit/sound of the BA's at a somewhat reasonable price? The closest I can find to the look, fit, and sound (at least on paper) to the BAs is the Westone W30, but not sure I'm ready to shell out $400 for them if I can get something similar for less.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
