#441 KZ DQ6 Discontinued eBay
Pros: The median of 14 hobbyist measurements gives it a solid Harman preference score of 71 with a 2.51 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 0.6 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. Bass is lifted about 2.5 dB with extension to 20 Hz, giving kick drums and bass lines extra weight. It uses 1 x 10mm dynamic + 2 x 6mm dynamic.
Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. A 7.8 dB peak near 8.2 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
