The KZ ZVX is one of the cheapest wired earphones here, with solid all-metal shells. Reviewers like its clear, forward mids, good detail and tight, quick bass.

Opinions split on how natural it sounds: some reviewers hear voices and instruments as slightly off. The metal shells are heavier and bulkier than most budget earphones, so fit varies, and the box comes with foam tips only, no silicone ones.
