Pula Arc These are the ones I haven't heard yet – but at $20, I'm going to get myself a pair during this sale and find out if the hype is justified. Apparently they offer a warmish V-shaped sound profile built around a single 10mm dynamic driver. Dunu Titan X Although I wasn't blown away by the sound of these IEMs, I have to admit that the build quality is way better than the $24 asking price suggests. However, if you like its V-shape signature, with a big wad of sub-bass, this is a no-brainer. Aful Explorer Another great value IEM, even before this summer deal price, the Explorer is a easy recommendation to the majority of listeners. Expect a warm, relaxed, and bass-forward profile, and you'll be pleasantly surprised with its excellent execution. Juzear Fiesta As lively and fun as their punchy design, the Fiesta gives you a fun, immersive sound profile with massive, physical sub-bass elevation and smooth, fatigue-free treble. Fun, fun, fun! Aful Performer 5+2 You'll get a warm-neutral to mild U-shaped sound signature with these IEMs, and though I think the bass gets a little bloomy into the lower midrange, there's still enough treble detail to bring things out of the swamp! Another one I would recommend at its new $163 sale price. Binary 1900 These IEMs sound as good as they look. They're a more affordable version of the EP321 (below), and though I don't think they quite hit the highs (literally) of that IEM, the offer a detailed, balanced sound for a great price. DUNU x Gizaudio Da Vinci The other IEM that I haven't heard on this list, but one who's reputation proceeds itself. The DaVinci is pretty iconic at this point, with it's lush and natural mid-range with full-bodied vocals, sandwiched by big bass and measured treble. I really want to get ears on this IEM! Dunu 142 The Dunu 142 is better, in my humble opinion, than its more expensive 242 brother, and now that its down to 220, I think it's a steal. It gives you an engaging, energetic, U-shaped profile that's a lot of fun! Binary EP321 These, as well as the Ziigaat Horizons, are some of my favourite 'bright' IEMs. There's definitely air and elevated treble here, and I can imagine it'll be too much for some, but if you can handle it, they will reward you with detail and dynamics. Juzear Harrier Now, I didn't give these full marks when I reviewed them last year, but the for the treble-shy amongst you, the Harrier is an intriguing option. I would only recommend these at under $300, so if you want a midrange-forward, bassy, treble-shy set, they're definitely worth getting. Aful Performer 8s I love these IEMs. Turn away if you're looking for detail monsters, but click if you want a warm, rich midrange presentation. This is a great example of the Aful house style, and sounds great with all music styles.
