What reviewers said

FiiO JD10

The FiiO JD10 is a budget-friendly wired IEM that pairs a 10mm polymer dynamic driver with a detachable 0.78mm 2-pin cable, making it a versatile pick for entry-level listeners. Its lightweight build (3.7g per earpiece) and simple button controls keep things practical, while the dual-cavity tuning aims to deliver a balanced sound signature for the price. With a 32-ohm impedance and 105dB sensitivity, it's easy to drive from most phones or laptops.

  • Pro:Detachable cable adds long-term value at this price
  • Pro:Very lightweight and comfortable for extended listening
  • Pro:Easy to drive with any device thanks to high sensitivity
  • Con:No noise isolation or ANC, so background noise leaks in
  • Con:Basic build quality may not survive rough handling
  • Con:Single-button controls limit media management

KZ Ling Long

The KZ Ling Long is a budget-friendly wired IEM with a compact bullet-style shell and a warm, engaging sound signature. It offers solid build quality and good value, though its technical abilities are modest and it can get congested on complex tracks. Its open-back-inspired design gives a notably spacious soundstage for the price, but clarity and refinement are not its strengths.

  • Pro:Very good build quality for the price
  • Pro:Warm, enjoyable tuning with solid bass
  • Pro:Spacious soundstage for an inexpensive IEM
  • Con:Average technical performance and detail retrieval
  • Con:Can sound congested on busy, dense music
  • Con:No inline controls or microphone
