#808 KZ ZS5v2 Discontinued eBay
Pros: It uses 2 x 10mm dynamic + 2 x balanced armature with an easy 16 ohm load.
Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Its 4.18 dB spread from the target means a noticeably uneven response. A Harman score of 47 places it in the lower part of the in-ear rankings.
