#3 AKG N400 TWS Discontinued eBay
Pros: Measured response gives it an excellent Harman preference score of 89 with a 0.93 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 1.1 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. Bass sits close to target and holds down to 20 Hz, so low end sounds full without bloat. It uses 1 x 8.2mm dynamic with an easy 16 ohm load.
Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. A 6.4 dB peak near 10.8 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
