There are many people who agree that iems have better detail retrieval due to isolation / fit.
Also, not ALL iems are better at detail retrieval than ALL headphones. The HD800s for example have excellent detail retrieval, but my uerms are better at grasping the details more than likely due to fit.
and yes it was coming to isolation
i'm sure people can make the hd800 modified drivers to fit into a shell.
There is no hard and fast rule on IEMs vs. on ear vs. over ear vs. anything else. Plenty of top performers in all categories are of each type. You may be confusing the ability to isolate, and thus have a clearer canvas on which details can emerge, with actual detail retrieval, which any kind of headphone/IEM/etc. can be capable or incapable of.
