**Pretty but sound is decent** under $110 ======================================= Fosi Audio IM4. Black. I think silver looks good too but can't confirm; I have the black one. I was actually pretty surprised by the sound. Pretty good. Very pretty and elegant shell. Nicely designed. Sound is actually purty good. Defiant. In emerald green. Gorgeous shell!!!!! Solid iem. But note it does have Quality control issues. Dunu Kima 2. Get the Raven version for better artwork. Looks nice! One of the best iems at the $100 pricepoint. Celest Wyvern Abyss original. Not remaster. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous shells! More of a vocal set. Has no technicals, ie no soundstage or imaging. But great for vocals. I got it for 9 bucks. Celest Pandamon 2.0. Purty shells. Beautiful shells. Chill sound. Pair it with Kiwi Ears flex eartips. I love the way it sounds. Very comfortable. Xuan NV. Not gorgeous per se. But the box art is stunning. But the iems aren't ugly by any means. Great sound. Great vocals. Great bass. I dig it. Also comes with Tang Sancai eartips. Save those for another iem in the future. Those eartips brighten stuffy iems. **Pretty shells but I'm not sure** under $110 =================== Letshouer S08. GORGEOUS shell. I can't find myself to enjoy it. It's a weird sound. I think Artii T10 (WAY WAY uglier) sounds better. **Pretty shells but sound is eh** under $110 ========= Zero Blue 2 and Zero Blue 1. Very pretty shells. Don't recommend for sound. Gets very harsh and sibilant. Cadenza v1. In purple. I bought it. Pretty. The sound is eh though. It's thin with male vocals. Pretty though. That purple color is gorgeous. Chu 2. It's a pretty shell. Sound is eh. Thin-ish with vocals. Not full. Cadenza v2 in Blue. Pretty shell. Recently checked it out. Still have it. Has a typical sound. 7hz G1. Pretty shell. I think it looks sick in white. Bought it. Too bright. Simgot EW300. Shells look nice. I didn't care for the sound. Celest Phoenix Call. Currently $69. Gorgeous! Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!! But the sound is oh, so close but not there. :S I still kept it because I love its design. I like the clear one! https://preview.redd.it/lnubp4i6qkkg1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=007704c2d634b3df2c5c4b51b196efc50aa20cfa

Oof. I have an addiction, like a dragon building a lair. To keep it to just iems I got interested in the idea of multi drivers with crossovers and started with a cheap kz zs10 Then I went and got a kinera Phoenixcall Duece Orchestra lite Davinci Cadenza Pandamon RSV MK2 Ice labs prismatica But right now I'm trying to round things out with some headphones, I just picked up a new tube amp, something simple and to pair with a 105 aer, and I'm currently learning about vacuum tubes lmao.

I tried the Cadenza briefly and it was decent. IEMs I had that lead up to the Aethers are the Kleans, Xuan Nv, Phoenix Calls, and EM6L. The Aether was a blind buy into a planar but each upgrade was looking for improvement in comfort, soundstage, and most importantly was detail/clarity. I was originally looking at the super mix 4.

This is the kinera celest phoenixcall but with good tuning

I'm excited to hear the flat 6khz-15khz treble range. All the planars and micro planar tribrids/hybrids normally have a peak at or around 8khz, aside from the martilos which have a dip at 8khz. This is where the Horizon stands out from the rest. I assume this will make it easier to listen to music at louder volumes, which always makes everything sound better. Reminds me of the celest phoenixcall, which has the same driver configuration for $50-100. Clear shell with visible sound tubes as well. I wish Ziigaat would adopt clear shells that seem to look great no matter how messy the wiring is put together (or just crammed into the shell lol. It always looks good regardless).

I have the Kineras, got them from AliExpress for like 15€ and I really like them! I did change the tips for the ones that come with the chu 2 and that made them a lot more comfortable. They sound great imo :)
