The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?

What reviewers said
KZ PRX
The KZ PRX is a budget-friendly planar magnetic IEM that offers a balanced, warm-leaning sound with strong detail retrieval and capable imaging for its price. It excels in sub-bass presence and smooth mids, though it demands proper amplification and ear tips to perform at its best. Its soundstage is decent but not exceptionally wide, and the stock cable is a noted weak point.
- Pro:Excellent value for a planar IEM
- Pro:Balanced, warm sound with good detail
- Pro:Strong imaging and separation for the price
- Con:Requires a capable source and good ear tips
- Con:Stock cable limits performance
- Con:Soundstage is only medium-sized
OPPO MH137
The OPPO MH137 is a lightweight, semi-in-ear wired earphone that connects via USB-C for digital audio transmission. It features a single 14.2mm dynamic driver, an inline microphone, and button controls, making it a simple and affordable option for everyday listening without active noise cancellation.
- Pro:Lightweight at only 15g for comfortable wear
- Pro:Digital USB-C connection for clear signal transmission
- Pro:Includes a microphone and button controls for calls and media
- Con:No active noise cancellation, so external noise may intrude
- Con:Semi-in-ear fit may not suit all ear shapes
- Con:Single-driver design limits soundstage complexity
