I’ve been contemplating this for almost half a year now. I recently moved back to Android from Apple and first I thought I’ll just get another wireless set of earbuds. The more I thought about it though my mind has gone more towards maybe doing a portable DAC + a pair of really nice sounding wired buds.
The absolute max I think I can spend on the buds themselves are around $300. I can be flexible but I am not looking in the Sennheiser 600 ballpark haha.
So if you have any recommendations, experiences or just have some tips to what to look out for please share them with me!
Crinacle’s list is a great place to start. https://crinacle.com/rankings/iems/ If you’re in the US Amazon has the Moondrop Blessing 2 on sale for $279. That would probably be what I’d try in the $300 range.
