Busted my old pair of MEE audio M-Duo earbuds, so I'm looking for a replacement set. Budget is something less than $200, preferably something $100-$150. Noise-cancelling isn't essential, a balanced sound profile is best, iOS compatibility is desired and wired is fine. Don't need them for sports purposes. So far I have the following on my shortlist:
- 1MORE Triple Driver (Maybe the quad driver version if it's cheap enough)
- Klipsch Audio Reference x6i (cheapest I could find was here on eBay: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Klipsch-Reference-Series-X6i…)
- Sennheiser Momentum In-Ear
- Sennheiser CX 5.00
Have heard good things about the Bose QC20, but it's a little outside my price range.
Any recommendations + personal experience would be much appreciated.
Consider also Audio-Technica ATH-ANC23 or ANC33iS. I was keen on QC20 but it is very pricey. Also after going through tons of reviews, I realised that for me ANC23 or ANC33iS will be better suited.ANC23 is USD39 and ANC33iS is USD79.
