My current earbud benchmark is the Panasonic ErgoFit line. [1]
To be fair, I don't use an external DAC or source high quality sound on the road.
But for $10 and tolerable, good enough for travel.

- TsomArp 9y agoI use the same. After trying many options, is the one that fits the best.
- DanielleMolloy 9y agoCan confirm - for everyday in-ears, these Panasonic in-ears are indeed good and durable. Cheap but surprisingly good end: Superlux HD668B (20-40$, as they got popular you may need to watch out for counterfeits). IMHO they are on par with some popular 200$ - 300$ Beyerdynamic / Sennheiser / AKG models. You may want to follow one of the online guides to replace the ear cup plastic with velour. Fakespot: A (90%) Expensive end: AudioQuest Nighthawk, 1st model. Their sound is unique and "purist audiophiles" may not like it, but they work pretty well with my listening habits; the experience has been pure joy so far and they are very comfortable. Fakespot: A (90%) Listening habits: Metal (symphonic-, power-, progressive-, i.e. complex and with classical music elements; e.g. Blind Guardian) and some Depeche Mode
