For perspective, I use a few high end IEMs, or may mid-high end (Thieaudio Clairvoyance/Shure SE846) with a Shure TW2 adapter and they're stellar. IMO, they DO sound better than my high end TWS. Plus, if you want to go wired, you have the option. Best of all worlds. Just took me a while to find a few IEMs that I really love.For "very good sounding tws" are you refering to fokus pro or other premium priced TWS? And TWS adapters only give you better codecs, so to make it simple I just let IEM w/o dac/amp compete against TWS with common codecs. The reason I ask is I was thinking about spend less on TWS coz I tried $350/$300/$200 TWS under same codec and they dont sound very different, beside none of them can beat IEM with similar price, so why not invest more on IEM and get a "middle class" TWS just for exercising. Because $200 TWS do sound lot better than $100 ones, but anything over $250, are flagships of various brands and they all sound just fine. It seems that a wired IEM are more like a mechanical product, and TWS are electrical products which upgrade much often than IEM.
