A cheaper S12. Almost identical sound and tuning. Good value. Look for aliexpress deals. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
Cheaper S12 Pro/ Z12 Tim Tuned Youtube Channel
At $120, I'd still go with the NicHCK F1 pro. Jaytiss Youtube Channel

Tech performance for this price is unparalled, a true IEF neutral offering, treble extension Tuning to such neutrality is not welcome for majority of people, bass impact non-existent
True "IEF Neutral" IEM, can be "A" tier with easy EQ Bass lacks fun and life Tim Tuned Youtube Channel
Sounds similar to an ER3 from memory, but possibly worse. Precogvision Youtube Channel
