Comfortable shells; wide nozzle bothers small ears

Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Textured, deep bass that stays controlled
  • Accurate mids and well-tamed treble without sibilance
  • Resolution and separation strong for a budget set
  • Good accessories incl. a bass-boost adapter
  • Balanced, smooth tuning that suits most music
  • Comfortable and stable for long listening
  • Measured passive isolation around 22 dBA

Cons

  • Wide nozzle can bother smaller ears
  • Small, vague soundstage
  • Treble a little too reined in, little air
  • No mic/remote cable option
  • Thin stock cable
  • Tips can slip out during exercise
  • Soft pouch, no water rating
  • About the best-sounding IEM in its class: near-neutral with excellent bass quality and clean treble, though not an exciting listen.

  • Easy pick for anyone wanting a neutral, relaxed wired IEM under $60.

  • Above average for the money but not a standout; clear vocals, heavy sub-bass and laid-back treble.

  • Strongly recommended: one of the best-tuned sets the reviewer has used, a clear step up from the original Zero.
