Hi, just popping in to ask a question. Not very active on this forum, just glancing at this thread once in a while to see what IEMs I should consider getting. 
 
I am in the market for something cheap that is ridiculously good for the price, which ones are the current ones to get?

Hahah okay! So the name of the ones to get is ostry kc06 havi b3, which is an old version?
 
Or are havi b3 the same but with older branding? Didn't understand that part lol

The Havi B3 exist in an old and a new version. You'd want the old one (original).

Penonaudio.com is the safest place to get both the suggested alternatives.

And they are to prefer over the ostry ones?

Both are awesome for their cheapness...b3 professional needs high powered sources and ostry doesn't

 

[mochill]

But my favorite is my fx850

Great, will be using them with my phone and I don't think I want to lug an amp around. Will settle for the ostry then.

What I meant is that both the kc06 and the b3 are available at penon.

My kc06 is still in the snail mail so I can't compare them yet. The consensus seem to be that those and maybe also the zero audio tenors are the best iem's under $100.

Ok, so the philips TX2 has around 50 hours of burn-in now, so I gave it a quick listen against the Pistons. The tx2 just runs circles around it - tighter and more controlled bass without staying much behind in quantity, much more realistic timbre, bigger soundstage, better positioning, darker blackground and a lot better depth. The treble is smoother and more extended. Overall clearer and more focused sounding. The pistons are decent iems for the price but pretty much sound bad directly compared to the tx2. And I haven't even started tip rolling.

the zero audio carbon nano  SINGULOS are an upgrade to Tenores and price may have dropped by now to near 100!
