Any recommendations for inexpensive wired in-ears?

[JTC]

Looking for wired, comfortable in-ear (flange type) headphones with decent sound for use with iPhone 12 Pro.

Previously had Klipsch wired in-ears which cost ~£20 but I lost them and can’t see them anywhere for sale.

Don’t want anything wireless - just a competent wired headphone that will also reduce external noise via a good seal.

I was really impressed with Linsoul KZ ZS10, recommended on here a couple years back, twenty odd quid from Amazon. Seem to have gone up like everything else, now about £40. Looks like a few copies available for around £20, it’s Amazon so easy to return, I’d stick with Linsoul personally.

Richersounds have Soundmagic £30 up which seem well liked and were on my shortlist at the time, wasn’t sure how I’d get on with IEMs. Ended up with Campfire but they cost a lot of dosh for only a smallish improvement.

I'd keep an eye out on the Sennheiser outlet. They regularly update what's for sale. All advertised as 'refurbished'. They're all new in boxes imo and this is a sales gimmick. I've bought several pairs from here and they're always great value.

I have just received a pair of Fiio FH3, bargain on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08DHTM4N5/?tag=pinkfishmedia-21

I too bought a pair of the ZS10 too - these ones - have been blown away by them I’ll be honest.

Enjoying the Fiios except that I find them a little awkward to put in. That’s just a matter of getting used to them.

Not used them as much as planned so far due to the Lightning adapter I ordered at the same time - a third party model - being unreliable and prone to loud bursts of distortion; I ended up activating a return on it and settled for the Apple version, which although more flimsy at least seems to work properly.
