#685 JVC HA-FW02 Discontinued eBay
Pros: Its tonal tilt of -0.40 sits close to the target, so the overall balance is neither dark nor bright. It uses 1 x 10mm wood dome dynamic with an easy 16 ohm load.
Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. A Harman score of 59 places it in the lower part of the in-ear rankings.
