Hi,
 
I am trying to find an IEM that is warm and has lush vocals with smooth/soothing highs but with a touch of sparkle.
female vocalists are among the top of my list.
budget < 1000 USD (used or new).
 
I currently own shure se846. I am not fan of their bump in upper mids. I prefer lusher vocals. I'd also want a bit more sparkle in the highs.
 
Please help me.

You can find one or two JHA Angies in the Classifieds for a good price. A number of folk have left the se846 for Angie.

Her mids are not really lush, but rather glorious in their perfection. They sound so right and present you simply must hear it to believe. The treble is nice and extended, but absolutely pure, clear of all sibiliance. Bass is adjustable to your liking. No matter where you adjust it to, it's rich and textured, and very agile.

What source are you using? If it's just a smartphone, Angie might sound sorta dull. But if you've a decent DAP, DAC or Amp, she'll impress the hell out of you.

Oh yes. From what I've read, the W60 certainly has lush vocals.
