Hello I am trying to choose IEMs as a present for a person has who never owned high-quality headphones.
The main requisites are:
1) Immediately noticeable SQ improvement over stock Apple stuff (this one is easy).
2) Very comfortable for small ears, easy to wear for long periods of time + in the gym / while running.
3) Detachable cable (so if it breaks it's easy to fix).
4) Does not need amplification.
Bonus:
a) Cable includes microphone or there is an option to get third-party /extra cable with microphone
b) Nice design
Music preferences are wide electronic and instrumental (more on the jazz/rock side of things).
Budget is <= $200
Really appreciate your suggestions.
