#182 qdc Anole V6: $1,298.00 Shenzhenaudio eBay
Pros: Six balanced armature drivers per side earn a preference score of 65 in crinacle’s measurement with a warm leaning balance. It matches the rating of the 64 Audio A12t for considerably less money, and its 106 to 109 dB/mW sensitivity makes it easy to drive from a phone.
Cons: An average deviation of about 2.9 dB from target makes the tuning uneven, with some bands noticeably louder or quieter than others. Better rated in-ears are available for far less money.
