6 | This is a ranking list that aims to bridge the gap between headphones, earphones, earbuds for those just in search of sound quality. Though many argue that they should be split based on type, I believe that sound is sound, and aim to search for the best sound achievable with the least amount of money, ignoring stereotypes and gatekeeping to test every device possible, without judging based on the opinion of others or its outlook. Even if it means wasting my time going through dollar store buds and gaming headsets just to rank them. | |||

14 | All of this is done by me, some random guy on the internet. I aim for this list to be accurate to the best of my knowledge and judgement. Still, there may possibly be errors and results may deviate from reality depending on external factors (outside noise, improper fit, input error, me having a good/bad day). With that being said, I'm open to any rechecks/retest requests if you believe something's wrong, given that I have access to test them again. Plus, you and I have different ears, music and most importantly different tastes. And those can change too. You may really like something I don't like, and vice versa. Don't take this list 100% seriously. Cross check with other trusted reviewers (list on the right), do your own research and best of all, go out and listen to some stuff! That's the best part of the hobby, listening to what you enjoy, tune your tastes and uncover hidden gems among what's considered a dumpster pile. | Crinacle's 1K IEM database: https://crinacle.com/ | ||
