There was a string of IEMs, almost all of them Chinese brands like KZT, that were all lauded as "sounds better than $500 IEMs, only cost $10!!!" that were way over hyped for a while. And I bought many/most of them because they were so cheap and then usually gave them away because they were not the magic thing the hype insisted.
I mean I'm not an "audiophile" and I found these to be a good combination of inexpensive, comfortable, and decent sound.
But I also haven't owned 1000 pairs of headphones so maybe I'm missing out.
As I said, they sounded decent, very decent for the price, I just found them uncomfortable. Headphones don't need to be expensive to be good.
