$250 IEM that is good for classical, rock, electronic, and pop

Hello, I need your help please, looking for an IEM for my music. I mostly have classical, rock, electronic, and pop music. So soundstage, imaging, separation, dynamics, vocals, bass, and timbre are very important.

What IEM plays does good in these genres and has these qualities for $250? Should be comfortable and isolate good. Right now I'm heavily leaning towards the Westone 2s.

I think the W2 fits the bill, just reading the title made me think of it.
Email TheGearLab and ask them for a price on the W2, should be around $215.

Turbine Pro or Westone w2. the ck10 too if you don't mind light bass, but you probably will if you listen to electronic.

I listen to a lot of electronic like Daaft Punk, Chemical Brothers, New Order etc and the CK 10s have more than enough bass with a deep insert using shure triple flange tips. What tips are you using/used with yours?

Everyone, thank you. After reading up on these suggestions I'm still strongly considering the W2 most.

Just a question: can anyone compare the soundstage, imaging, separation, dynamics, vocals, bass, and timbre of the W2 to the other IEMs mentioned here?

You can pick up the Triple Fi 10's for just under $200 on Amazon I think. But yea, the W2 is right for you IMO.
