DK3001BD

Dunu DK3001BD right at 500$ msrp but lower on sale

I got a Dunu Brain dance for $297! Can't wait to try it out and see if the "brain damage" claims are true

I was just thinking that it was interesting that ASMR doesn't get brought up on r/iems much. My recommendation is the dunu Braindance or a used Mest series. I have the Mest mkIII and it's perfect for comfort when falling asleep to ASMR, but a little out of budget. The Braindance is a little less spacious but is still comfortable for me. IEMs I've also tried for ASMR include: * Empire Ears Raven (too big but very nice rumble feeling) * Mega5EST (comfortable but not as spacious) * Thieaudio Monarch MK2 (too big) * Galaxy buds 3 pro (not nearly loud enough)

Agreed on all your points (except the cable, I much prefer this one over the one on the bd) it's an everyday wear version of the Braindance, still very technical yet fun, but much more reigned in.

I know this is a controversial one, but the Dunu DK3001BD. As someone who loves details, albeit at the expense of natural playback, this set is money. It's definitely something I would like to own down the line. (It was lent to me for 2 weeks by a friend who has deeper pockets.)

Here using Softears Studio 4 por music and playing instruments, and Dunu Braindance for gaming and other purposes, and for me, much more better experience than big headphones

Tea pro, top pro, dusk, aful performer 7, 3001bd or anything around this price point. Your money but I never saw a point of buying many of cheap iems because there’s nothing special between them. 

The Braindance are excellent for metal, but beware, if you are sensitive to treble, stay away. It's smooth but at the same time fatiguing. It's hard to explain. I find them really enjoyable though, haha.

Try the Dunu Braindance, Softears Volume S or QoA Misty Blue.

Dunu Braindance, love my treble.
