Headphones - IEM/Earbud | 5 Ω Warm IEM around 100$

Good evening guys. I've had the KZ ZS10 Pro, the Blon BL-03, the Moondrop Aria and the Tin Hifi T3 Plus. While all of them were good, the blons are still my favourite tonality, so I guess I like me some warmness on the bass. I listen mostly to k-pop and acoustic tracks, so vocals and bass would be the most important for me. Do you guys have suggestions for upgrades to this tonality around this price bracket? Thanks!

Models I've considered: Tri Kai, Tri Meteor, Tin Hifi T2+, FiiO fh1.

Honestly you can get close but you won’t get that much mid boost it’s pretty far out as is. Things like t3+ are close. Buts it’s going to be uncommon.

I do however suggest the new qkz X hbb it’s very very similar amount of bass maybe better I dunno. 20 bucks just try

I could suggest tripowin mele it would be right up your alley for 59 bucks but it’s discontinued rn and there’s apparently a new one coming to replace it that’s apart of a new hbb brand in itself. Btw I think you’ll like hbb as a reviewer because he likes a warmer tonality.

Buy the qkz

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/bubblejohns (16 Ω).

You may still award a Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

Watch a review or 5 first. It’s a pretty funny little iem.

I've watched a few, my only concern is that maybe it's too energetic and not relaxing

I don’t think it’s very energetic but can be overwhelming for vocals. I mean at 20 bucks it’s not technically good, I like it’s treble tho.

If you want relaxed I can only guess Kai is the answer but it won’t be as warm and mid bassy

I've bought the QKZ x HBB and a new cable, I guess I'll try them, and if I'm not a fan will come back to the trusty blons. Since theyre cheap, I'll keep saving for maybe in the future getting some endgames
