Need suggestion/buying guide for high-end universal IEM
Hey there, I'm a newbie in head-fi (1st post/thread/activity here!), and I would like to receive some input regarding high-end universal IEM.

PFE 232 upgrade or sidegrade from SE535?
Considering selling my 535s and getting 232s. Worth it? I like the prospect of the added detail and bass impact from the 232s. Any comments welcome.- jjb3

Headphones comfortable enough to sleep in
Good Evening, My question is related to comfy IEM's, I currently have Shure SE530 and Audio-Technica AIR ATH-AD900. I am leaning towards IEM because I have a habit of falling asleep with them on, and I can't do that with Full-size headphones. The Shures hurt my ears in less than an hour usage...- Kevinv

D5000 equivalent IEMs
I'm looking for an IEM which is the closest thing to the Denon D5000s as possible, since I like that sound so much. Is there such a thing?

What are the biggest flaws of your favorite iems?
This is one of the most useful questions imo. I'll start. DBA-02: Sub-bass roll off FXT90: Too much mid-bass FXD80: Recessed mids GR07 mkII: Slight treble roll off Also does anyone have any iems they consider to have no flaws? I've never heard one.- gnarlsagan

Hello folks, Just wondering, if you were upgrading from a Westone4, what would you go for ? and why ? I was toying with the idea of the Grado GR10, the Audeo Phonak 232 or the Shure 535, maybe not as an upgrade, but more for a different sound signature. Thanks for your input !- 50mm
