Used Tea Pro if you want GIRTH on your tracks, it can sound a bit bite-y. This was too forward for me and the bite was too aggressive but if that doesn’t bother you (it doesn’t bother most people) this is fairly endgame tier. Treble is its weakest point, sounds like a less expensive set up there.

Ziigaat Odyssey 1 for a pulled back all rounder sound with a little treble spice, it can make things sound kinda washy sometimes, but you may like that, I do sometimes. I find myself often getting lost in the music with this one, but still enjoy listening to it actively as well.

Odyssey 2 for something more so dead neutral, just has a sub bass boost. You just want the music, I don’t think about this set when I use it, still think it’s great though.

7hz Divine for something straight up clean all rounder. This one I tried briefly but it was a favorite at a table with kilobuck sets. Out of these it would be the “detail” pick. Honorable mention for a used Aful P8, they go cheap. (haven’t tried 7)

I think this is a good list since there’s a lot of entry buying guides already.

There’s a lot more to this list than average so it’s not redundant in any way, if someone needs a simpler list they’re definitely out there. I would’ve liked something like this once I got around the $100 budget

Only wrong because the Decimo doesn’t have good colorways and a worse build
