    Dude, quit with the mug warmer talk and just buy these damn headphones so we can be done with this saga. |{

    I uhhh still have $15 left for an iem, do you know any good iems that could fit that budget? Oh and I said the mug warmer part so people wouldn't be confused because I said I only had $15 left for iems despite the hd598cs being only $135 and having a $160 balance.

    I'm sure everyone's keeping a tally. That was somewhat tongue-in-cheek.



    Somewhat.

    It's cool, I just wanted to be transparent, it applies to anyone who's wondering.

    For a $15 iem? You can do way better for $50, but the Xiaomi Piston 3 is good if you like a V-shaped sound signature.

    Unfortunately I only have $15 left to spend, I'll mostly only use it before I sleep for listening to audio books. But I did search it though out of curiosity, is this the Piston 3? (https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-profe...id=1489121012&sr=1-2&keywords=xiaomi+piston+3) I typed Xiaomi Piston 3 and that was the first result.

    That's the replacement. I've read it's decent, but I wouldn't elaborate as I haven't heard it myself.

    I see, unfortunately I only have $15 left, I'll try to wait for 3 hours to see if there are any new lightning deals on iems on Amazon but so far the best I found was the Panasonic 125-k.

    I'm sorry this might be unhelpful, but if you could find a way to stretch your budget to $40, the Foster TE-02n are supposed to be pretty fantastic modded.
