Sensitive to bass ears help finding new earbud alternative
Hi. I've used these JVC earbuds my entire life, but they don't make them anymore. There is a listing on Amazon but it's a scam.
I'm having issues finding these earbuds that are wired, flat and have the tiny holes all over.
I have tried the new JVC gumy earbuds, but they have a new design and seem to have enhanced the bass? I cannot use them as they make my ears throb because they center the sound too much into my ear because of the hole placement. I tried looking stuff up and it seems this design is outdated because the newer design has better bass and audio levels. I understand this but I can't use the new ones. I've tired several brands now and it's all the same.
I've found Sony Earbuds of this design, they sound awful. I've tried alternative earbuds with the soft silicone that goes into your ear and the same thing. It centers the audio too deep into my ear and causes migraine.
I liked these because the audio levels are so flat the bass doesn't hurt my ears and cause me a migraine even on the lowest of audios.
Does anyone have a alternative, with this flat holes design? I'm aware it's not going to sound "good". I know what they sound like and I like them but they don't make this design anymore that I can find from googling outside of the Sony ones(which are shit). I have horribly sensitive ears to bass. Wired preferred: I will lose the non wired ones and don't want to have to realize I can't listen to music because I forgot to charge my headphones.
