Audio Suggestions for an IEM under 1k || KZ Ate gone bust

[sharang]

Was using the KZ Ate-S in ear headphones for the past 1.5 years.

Absolutely loved the KZ ate for a beginner IEM. But suddenly yesterday one side has gone bust.

Looking for an upgrade to a new VFM pair, which should be a notch above this one.

Usage- occasional with Android phone.

Kindly suggest on similar lines. Open to ordering from Aliexpress.

KZ ZST. Bass can be compared to closed back headphones. Saying this after using it for past few months everyday.
