The original Wan'Er. But with a better cable, better build, a full set of Tang Sancai Tips, and a nicer, more premium feeling build. Same great vocal focused sound.

KZs more mature next gen V-shaped tuning in a great all-metal shell. Fun all-rounder type of sound. Super premium feeling shells let down by KZs typical awful stock cable and woeful acessories package. Try to get it for less than $18

Balanced All-rounder. Basically the same as OG Waner but with a little more treble air, helps boost resolution and imaging by a tiny tiny bit. Accesories are great for the price, sancai tips + nice cable
