Choice between several earbuds

[TheGhzGuy]

Hello all!

I just received a 50 dollar Amazon Gift Card for my birthday, and since I'm getting tired of my 10 dollar JLabs I thought now would be a good time to upgrade! I am in the US and I tend to listen to electronic music. (I'll list a few examples so you know what I mean) I also prefer a pretty flat sound curve, with a slight emphasis on the bass (I'm talking tiny).

The earbuds I'm looking into:

JLab Epic Wired - 29.99

Zero Audio Tenore - 35.80

Shure SE112 - 49.00

VSonic VSD1S - 34.99

Soundmagic E10 - 39.99

 

Examples of Music I listen to:

Undertale 087- Hopes and Dreams

nanobii - popsicle beach

Laszlo - Interstellar

Stonebank - All Night

Laszlo - Home

Pegboard Nerds - Pink Cloud

 

Thanks for the help!

I use the VSD3S and it has too much bass for my liking.

My recommendation would be the MEE AUDIO M6 PRO

Well good to know to avoid those. I had seen a few things about the M6 PRO before, I'll look into those, thank you!

@STRMfrmXMN has them and the HD558's so he might be able to compare them to those. I can only compare to the HyperX clouds.

They're pretty damn good for the price you pay. They sound better than my ANC33is-es but aren't built quite as well (my ANCs have been chewed up a bit by a doge of mine and it still works like new).

Vast majority of IEMs are likely to sound similar to your Clouds (slightly V-shaped sound signature) with less soundstage and instrument separation. My ANCs are an exception that are hard to rival in terms of IEMs (fairly midrange heavy with the exactly perfect amount of bass). As for the M6 compared to 5XX Senns, yeah, not gonna compare but they're definitely not a bad option for IEMs.
