It's been a long time since I've used any proper high end IEMs (the Shure SE500 were high end the last time I made a purchase lol and the UE10 pro was the best IEM in the world), and there's a lot of choice these days. For a thousand bucks or thereabouts would the best be Thieaudio Monarch MK2s? The other ones that caught my eye are the Sennheiser IE900 (previous owner of HD800 long ago), Bayerdynamic Xelento but that might just because they're established brands.
Sometimes I miss the convenience of having very good sound very portably, high end headphones are too much setup wise, but IEMs can be pretty much driven out of a phone. I still have an LG V20 w/ quad DAC and Amazon Music HD. I like good bass, and some of my favourite artists are female vocalists.
