Yeah, this was my final lap.
Instead of burning 150usd on a Fiio, I’d grab 3 sets + BT amp:
- Tanchjim Tanya - You getting it for filters and tips, but also as an extra set, you might enjoy it, it’s bullet style, semi open back.
- DQ6 - Slammer soundstage, best budget IEM for your metal/bassy part (Needs Tanya’s filters and its tips also good for it)
- Tripowin x HBB: Mele - best sub-50$ all rounder and you can also use Tanya’s filters on it. If you only want one of the three, this is the one you get.
So if you spend like, 120$ on a BT DAC/AMP and 100$ on these 3 sets, you’re settled to go and you have solid options + replacements.
Another contender to hit the 300 marks might be Hana 2021 or Moondrop Kato, but I’ve never tried these.
