Hifiman 800's Silver List at $600 on sale now for $150. Real good sound.
Good sounding wired earbuds - affordable?
My stock apple wired earbuds sound ok for calls, but for music, the highs are kinda brittle and cymbals sound nothing like actual cymbals.
So I tried the Klipsch T5Ms for $45 (What HiFi product of the year 2019). Solid brand. What could go wrong? Well they sound like a 1980s alarm clock radio. Thin, tinny even. NO bass whatsoever. And super inefficient compared to the stock $29 Apple buds. So I am returning them. I think Klipsch might have a quality control problem here.
Any other recommendations?
