Never buy things for a specific purpose from Amazon that's a general store which obtains products from various middle men... Should have researched before buying... Try from headphonezone or the audio store... Concept kart has worked fine for me but there is too much controversy online so i would recommend to stay away from it for a time being... Genuinely they had a good pre sale service idk about post sale... Also next time if want to try one of these for the budgets: 1. Fiio jd10 (cheapest 900₹) (current use) 2. Truthear gate 3. 7HZ x Crinacle Zero: 2 4. kiwi ear belle (current use) 5. Kefine Klean 6. Moondrop LANII (5.5k₹) 7. Fiio jt1 (wired headphones) (current use) 8. 1Mii AI Y8+ (bluetooth)

I tried them at a store in japan for like 20s so I'm not the best fitted to give you an answer, they were great, cadenza is too neutral for me even though it's supposedly a v-shaped, kiwi ears belle would be a safe choice as it sounded more vibrant to me, but I still prefer GK Kunten, if you can buy your kiwi ears belle on amazon go for it, buy the kunten on aliexpress at the same time (it's so cheap anyway), if your prefer the kiwi ears belle keep it and sell your kunten on vinted/ give it as a present to your friend, if your prefer the kunten send back the kiwi ears to amazon, voila !

I’ve been into IEMs for a while now and it feels like around the $20–30 range covers most of the recommended frequently budget options. Stuff like: \- Moondrop Chu 2 \- 7Hz Salnotes Zero / Zero 2 \- Tangzu Wan’er sg 1 & 2 \- Kiwi ears belle \- Tanchjim bunny dsp \- GK kunten \- Truthear Gate From what I’ve seen, they all seem really close in performance, just different tuning preferences. At that point, is it more about taste rather than “which is better”? Or is there actually one that clearly stands above the rest in this price range?

My friends it seems there has been a misunderstanding. I am not a beginner, i actually create videos and help people that just stepped in the IEM world i was just wanting to do a couple of informative like talks about this price range being the most competitive and focused on right now with the influx of new guys trying IEMs for their first time. I just wanted the opinion of people about each of these cause if i do it from my point of view it becomes totally opinionated based solely on my perspective. I have all of these and tested them all myself. Just was interested on the community view on these and why

Ok so my preference are neutral with warm tuning so not everyone cup of tea but i prefer for it the chu 2 need taking care of cause of the build quality other than that vey nice. Belle is ome of the new contenders and quite nice for vocals acoustic long sessions. Gk kunten has bass with treble for like pop rock. Bunny dsp if you want to try different sound setting using eq. Zero 2 are fun like have fuller sound with bass and mid treble so edm pop stuff like that and tangzu have the best accessories hands down and have nice bright tuning

Kiwi ears belle and kz castor pro. The belles just sound so all around good that theyre what I go to at least half the time. The castors though, First time I listened to Killshot and the bass hit i could feel it in my neck and spine and have been hooked ever since

These were my first set and I loved them after 5 minutes. LOVED them. I still do.  I own other cheaper sets which I use, Gl Kunten and the Kiwi Ear Belle but the Explorers are definitely my favourites. They are just so easy to lose yourself into. I recently listened to Dave Mathew’s band and they just sound exquisite. The violins and drums and guitars and bass just dancing through my ears, then the horns and keys start to emerge making me smile all over again.

Try the Kiwi ears Belle. These are amazing, and perform above and beyond the clinical accuracies of a similarly priced headphone.
