#439 Snowy Siren JM: $230 eBay
Same family: the Snowy Olive 2 (lower-end model, ranked higher, rated 4.5/5).
Pros: A wired balanced armature in ear with an even, slightly warm tuning, scoring 74 with a 1.7 dB deviation from target. Sub bass sits right on target at 30 Hz, so the low end has full weight.
Cons: Presence and treble are each about 2 dB below target, with a dip near 5.9 kHz, so detail is a bit soft. The score rests on three measurements, and the Truthear Nova measures closer to target.

Frequency Response
How the Snowy Siren JM 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 median of 3 independent measurements, so one odd sample or rig cannot skew it, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: median of 3 measurements from the squig.link databases of boizoff, breampike and iemocean. Thanks to each of them for publishing their work.
