IM50 and Tenore
+1 this though I prefer the Carbo Basso versus Tenore....but you can't go wrong with all these.

Why do you prefer the Basso? What is the difference between them?
I know reviews cover exterior build quality, cable durability, etc.
Is there any info on longevity of IEMs? I have heard of cheap IEMs (for example, sennheiser cx300s II) lasting for up to 4 years, and expensive IEMs (sennheiser ie80, dje1500s for example) failing quickly. Surely there must be info on this, because this would be the quality control aspect of the company, but can't really be observed by the consumer.
I am just curious, I am fairly sure that most last a long time.
Ah, that makes sense. Looks like that would be much more difficult than I previously thought, since all of the owners would have to be consciously aware of their IEMs throughout their duration. Thank you for the detailed response!
I usually look up info that could hint towards early failure (for example, the Hifiman re300h looked quite impressive on paper, but in the thread it was reported to have strain reliefs glued on, which came off easily). I ended up buying the most durable IEMs I could find, assum8ng they were built equally well on the inside lol
PS: The amount of times I have referenced your multi IEM review is unreal, excellent work!
I am using a pair of etymotic research hf5 iems and love the sound but want more detail and sound stage without them being big, I like to sleep with headphones in and lay on my side which I do fine with these but I want more detail and soundstage. I use an iPhone 6+ with a fiio e07k amp. Any suggestions the cheaper the better

Joker!! GOAT!
Is there a moderately priced CIEM that has a similar signature to the Dunu DN2000's?
I love everything about the DN2k's.. just hate the comfort and heft. Maybe a little more extension in the treble as well.
$350-$500 range. 1964 Ears? Noble? I'm not sure--this is my first attempt looking into CIEMs. <3
How bad is the GR07 BE sibilance? Anything near that of a VSD3S? Gr07 BE looks like a good step up from my vsd3s, but not for a while, cuz I only got the vsd3s pretty recently.
