#14 BGVP P05: $45 Discontinued eBay
Pros: A single dynamic IEM with a very high preference score of 86 across two measurements and only 1.03 dB average deviation from target, one of the most accurate budget tunings measured. Bass, midrange and presence all stay within about 1.5 dB of target, and the MMCX cable is detachable.
Cons: A 7.1 dB dip near 11.5 kHz takes some air off the top treble. It is discontinued after selling for about $45, so it is hard to find new.
Is the BGVP P05 right for you?
Buy it if
- you want the tuning most listeners prefer in blind tests out of the box (Harman score 86).
- you want sub-bass rumble that reaches down to 20 Hz.
Skip it if
- you want to buy it new: it is discontinued.

Frequency Response
How the BGVP P05 measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is the average of 2 independent measurements, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: the average of 2 independent measurements from the squig.link databases of ianfann and vortexreviews. Thanks to each of them for publishing their work.
