Which IEM headphone ( with warm sound ) for > $40 max ?

[godsmack50]

Hi , I have a simple question , I'm looking for an IEM at a maximum price of 40 dollars, knowing that , as some here know , I like warm 80's hifi style sounds with quite round bass ( I don't like neutral sounds ), but still a quality and reliable IEM , what would be the best adapted IEM to my listening style and of the best possible quality for this price ? Thanks for trying to be as simple as possible, thanks guys !!!!

I just found a TANGZU WAN'ER + a QKZ Q1 Max cable + 6 pairs of earcaps for 33 dollars (free shipping). Is this the right package for what I'm looking for ?

To me Tangzu Waner had a zingy treble, that will not fit you requirement for a warm playback characteristic.

What does "zingy treble" mean , and which IEM do you recommend for $40 max ?

It means the opposite of warm. I recommend Truthear Hola.

Yet everywhere I read the reviews or reviews on youtube everyone says that the WAN'ER has a warm sound, no one else I've read the opposite. If below a forum that details rather well with numerous reviews of the WAN'ER, all describe it as warm.

The Kiwi Ears Cadenza has a warm sound (vintage 80's hifi style) like I'm looking for ?

Interesting how different our experiences are. For me Kiwi Ears Cadenza was unbearable and Tangzu Wan'er was much more pleasant. That is why it's very hard to recommend an in-ear headphone with no other reference. I suggest get one of the recommended products, see if you like it, and take it from there.

Indeed, I think I'll have to buy some on different models at the price of 40 dollars maximum and make my own opinion because there , nobody advises me the same IEM !!!!

That's why I was disappointed when my Waner unit was unusably bright.

I'm lost!!! lol

Keep in mind Waner, and the majority of reviews, came out after lean-bright tuned Chu and 7Hz Zero were the budget kings. Hola came out later, and I listened to Waner after I had heard Hola.

Tangzu Wan'er is $17.10 with free shipping from Linsoul right now. You could've earned that amount in the time you've probably spent thinking about it
