IEMs under $150 with strong detail for bass guitar (rock) and good for psytrance

[Blake Klondike]

Was just listening with these last night and they are one of the audio wonders of the age, especially considering the price..

how do they fit? they look unwieldy to me-- like they'd be top-heavy and difficult to wear

The Truthear Zero Red isn’t heavy at all but if the body was any larger it might be a problem. People with small ears should probably proceed with caution.

Luckily for me the red body fits and fills the entire area of the concha outside the ear canal but is comfortable, and blocking and almost sealing the ear seems to help with strong balanced bass response.

I'm listening to my LetShuoer S08 for nearly a month now, and it seems that I need a little bit of sub bass <100Hz. and more detailed bass guitar.

Listening to Fiio ka11, couldn't find many better dongles. Even much expensive dongles, 100-200 USD, were nothing to compare with 30 USD Ka11.

The only dongle that I enjoyed in the local store was Moondrop Moonriver 2 Ti, which was very nice on bass and had a much tighter texture bass then Ka11.

For now i'm watching for this models to explore:

Soranik iON-4X
Kinera/Celest Plutus Beast
AudioDream AD Diaboli
Raptgo x HBB Hook-X
Geek Wold GK300
And maybe Dusk and Kiwi Ears X HBB

What do you think. Is one of these a good improvement to S08? Where will be the truth, which of these models do you guys think will offer a real revelation in sound and allow me to hear details I haven't heard before?

My target is to find no EQ solution for psytrance and rock with bass guitar. With infra bass and best bass response on 20-100Hz without lacking details and brilliance.

Who had a next step and was amazed after S08 - please share your experience.
