IMHO no one really needs anything more than this. Impecable tuning. Techs are competitive with anything under $100. Only true knock I have against this is that the nozzle is pretty bad - long and thick, which may be a problem for some. It certainly makes putting eartips on them very difficult. Previously Owned

Great balanced, smooth tuning. Needs more bass for my taste, can be a bit soft at times.

I think this is massivly overhyped, but it's not terrible and a great value with impedance adapters

Warm, intimate, but airy sound. Great accessories for the price. Warmer, and a little less resolving than EW200 and Aria 2, but DSP DAC+APP gives good versatility if no access to EQ.
