Best under $500 replacement for broken Audeze LCD-2?

Looking for cheap non-fatiguing (smooth highs & non-piercing mids) custom in-ear. Avara, AAW, CTM, Westone...?

Upgrade from RE-262 to RE-400 => disappointed. Is there a real substitute for the RE-262?
One driver of my beloved RE-262 did stop working.

I have received the new RE-400 and I don't like them...- Pingfloid
