I have the Moondrop Chu 2, an awesome IEM that works really well, but the brass nozzle it has easily oxidises, especially given that I live in a relatively humid climate, so green bits keep on clogging the nozzle and need to be cleaned out. Are there any good value options (let’s say under 100 ideally) that don’t have a brass nozzle (or similarly corrosive materials)?

edit: I have bought the Truthear Gate, since it appears to use a plastic nozzle

    Kiwi ears? I have a pair of the quartets and I love them. They are all resin. I can’t vouch for their cheaper models, but I love the quartets. They are around 2 years old now and doing great.

      I checked the Cadenza and it looks like they use resin nozzles too! I’ll keep those in mind then!
