Hi.

I have misplaced my Monster Copper Turbine Pro's which I am unhappy about, and need a suitable replacement.
I am looking for something that sounds fantastic, is very very comfortable and easy to drive. I am not a bass head, but I am sibilance sensitive. I love details but I also like my music to be fun to listen to.

Is anyone able to recommend something amazing?

I really enjoy my AKG N40s. While MSRP has them above your limit, AKG has discontinued them anyway and they can be found under $100 USD on eBay pretty regularly.

I thought I was the only person around here that likes the N40s - nobody ever talks about them
Great IEMs, one of my first. A little on the brighter side but lends itself to a detailed and spacious presentation. Stock cable is crap, the MCXX from FiiO and they profit from a little more power than a cell phone.

My go-to now a days is either KZ ZAX (very detailed), and Moondrop Starfields (less detailed but with a warmer more natural tonality). Moondrop Starfields are definitely the fun pair for listening with their slight V-shaped sound signature. I love them.

I'm interested in the Meze Rai Solo. They can be had right now for $149 and all the reviews I've read have them punching above their price point. Owning the Meze 99 Neo's have made me a believer of Meze.

Alo heard good things about the Legacy 3. Can anyone elaborate, which one is better afa soundstage, precision, musicality, price difference notwithstanding (Legacy 3 or 4)?

I have not heard the L4, but I haven’t read anyone preferring the L3 over the L4. I think the L3 does have more bass though. My concern with the L3 is QC issues. If you buy it custom (either a CIEM or custom design), I think it is more likely to be well built though. It is definitely preferable to get it with the flat 2 pin socket vs the qdc socket that sticks out.

Got the Legacy 3 and man, they are really really good for the money. But I hafta vouch for the TFZ No. 3 also.

I've got the FH3s and love them, very detailed and spacious with tight bass control. Maybe not for everybody, but definitely worth looking into.
