Any good entry/budget IEM's you'd suggest?

I use Ikko planet I foams on my zs10pro and they work really well with it :+1:

CCA C10 are just great and are criminally cheap.

Prefer more Bass and Mid fullness? ZS10PRO… amazing for the price.
More old school laid back sound? Tin T2

Truth is there are countless options out there. l hear only good things about TFZs budget iems…

Form factor depends on intended use…

I would add that if you value realism, especially in drums and cymbals and also vocals the CCA C10 is hard to beat at that price. Instruments sounds real, much more than on T2. The T2 sounds congested compared with the CCA. l’m a pro musician so l can immediately can tell the difference. So l vote for CCA C10 as one of the best to start with. And its cheaper than T2 l think. My 2 cents… good luck

Thank you all for the advice! I really appreciate it! Currently I am thinking of getting one of 3/4 IEMs, but I have plenty of time to decide. I do like the Tin T2, but I like a deep and full sound. I like the feel power in the low end and have it feel substantial. Due to that, I was looking at the KZ ZS10 Pro and the KZ ZSX, and I’m sort of leaning toward the ZSX from what I have researched. I would also probably update the cable, since it isn’t so good.

I really like your suggestion of the CCA C10, that sounds like an awesome choice! However I do not know much about it yet and I’ll look into it some. Can you tell me any more about it?

You’re going to like any of the options you mentioned. They can give you exactly what you’re after. To my ears you won’t get that fullness with tin t2.
CCA is to KZ as Chevrolet is to GMC. More or less the same models, shell, drivers and design but are tuned differently.
As l wrote above… l have been using the zs10pro and c10 since last may. They are very very similer.
I stand with what l already wrote… for long term listening the cca is more forgiving. Zs10pro has a more bass…midbass emphasis and is more sensitive meaning it is overall louder and punchier but also more intense and tiring. The zsx is on it’s way to me…l hear its an even more intense version of zs10pro. Cca has a c12 model which is equivalent of the zsx and comparisons are on youtube. Seems that kz are more intense and cca are more relaxed. Cca is almost always cheaper than kz. And l actually prefer their design visually.
So… ; ]

You also might want to look at the Blon 03. It has been getting some very good reviews. Under 40 bucks.

I have the ZSX for about a week and they’re pretty good!
Depth is the key word for these as compared to the zs10pro and c10 ; ]
They represent the music in a less flat way than those… they make it so instruments are even more separated and the stage is deeper - very very cool and to my liking ; ]
And though bass is big and full similarly to zs10pro the transition to mid bass and mids is done more tastefuly and less tiring to my ears. And colors the mids less which is a great advantage for me personally . Very nice V or U signature. The C10 is “flatter” and might be more useful for me when playing on stage. l like all 3
