#205 Fatfreq Reference Pro SE: $599.00 FATfreq eBay
Pros: It is a wired, closed-back in-ear that blocks outside noise passively. It holds an equal rating to the Cayin Fantasy and the Shanling ME700.
Cons: In crinacle’s measurement it scores only 62.0 for preference, with a 3.18 dB deviation from target, so the tuning departs noticeably from what most listeners prefer. The equally rated Cayin Fantasy costs less.
