I have had like kadenz, aria, aria 2, em6l, actually im not gonna bother listing all of them, like 30+ iems from 50 to 250  No benefit that I can see.  Also, The concept of tuning an iem seems absurd to me. Recording methods and audio software should improve and then there should be an actual scientific baseline thats iem is tuned flat and sounds are tuned to be correct. Also apple solved this entire problem by putting mics in airpods and tuning it to your ear. Until better tech and proper scientific baseline is established, I will get banned from reddit repeatedly for criticizing this sub

EM6L has the nozzle too thick for my ears and I can't use them which caused some ear damage . Now I'm forced to use my HD600 which are okish. Good luck.

Though it may be a tad harsh in the treble, the Thieaudio Legacy 4 is probably your best bet. If you want something more relaxing and better for all genres, then the Simgot EM6L unless you can find a second hand Moondrop Blessing 2 (original or Dusk) for less than $200. ETA: I haven't tried the Meze Alba yet, but I've heard good things about it and the Empyrean is fantastic for orchestral music.

Probably either my Simgot EM6L or KZ Zenith. Both are fairly warm, V-shaped tunings that play it safe but keep it musical. Zenith has tuning toggle switches you can mess with to slightly modify the sound and the EM6L is just nicely tuned out of the box. Nothing crazy from either of them, but I wouldn't be mad if they were all I had. Probably the best in the $50-150 price range, but I'd honestly save money for something better or stick with something cheaper like the Zero2 and CHU2 since it doesn't really get good until the $300+ area imho. I could be dead wrong about that, but that's just from my experience.

EM6L is bright trash?? Huh, mine must be a defect then since it's warm neutral tuned... though I agree that it sucks for vocals.

I got the EM6Ls with a tripowin cable that has a mic. No complaints, not boomy or bassy, the highs don’t peak and they are comfortable for long wear all under 125 bucks.

EM6L are indeed good for gaming, but 7Hz G1 were also a good surprise.

My pick would be the EM6L. They are very detailed and pretty comfortable to wear during hours.

EM6L. You really don't want to have Truthhear iems for hours in your ears. Maybe they will fit you perfectly, but trust if they don't, you will never get them out again... Source : my zeros Blue and Red sleeping in their box for months.

great but with the qc caviat of the nozzle just falling off for some people if you don't want to risk that then i'd look into cca hydro or simgot supermix4

best under 100 are kefine delci ae or simgot eg280 em6l are good and around the price point but have the qc issue of the nozzle just straight up falling off for a considerable number users and you have to reglue it back on yourself

lots of people like the simgot em6l, my first were the supermix 4 and they were great - but i’d actually recommend the 7hz crinacle divine- kind of the number 1 in your price range. if you wanted something amazing but a lil higher than your budget i just upgraded to the ziigaat arête 2 and ive never been so impressed, or a safer bet for an all rounder would be the softears volume S (ultra cheap option if you fancy it, simgot ew300)

Tried the truthear pure first and was blown away with how good music sounded. Then I recently picked up the Simgot EM6L as a gaming set and was super impressed with how good it sounded in valorant and the clarity it had in music
