My Focal Utopia sound great, but I find myself mostly listening to JH Audio CIEM Angies because of the size, privacy and sound isolation they offer. However, the Angie's never quite fit right and after 30 minutes or so, my ears do get a bit sore.

What do you all recommend? Priorities are great/accurate sound, comfort and good (but not perfect) sound isolation.

You might like the FiR KR5 or the Empire Ears Odin :)

I currently have JH Audio Angie CIEMs. They sound great but they have never been totally comfortable and they are not at the level of the Utopia.

What do you recommend in the 2000 +\- price range? How about the newer JH Sharona or Sheena? Noble Kahn?
The Odins are similar to Utopia but in IEM form, TOTL resolution and details /technicalities but maybe not the most engaging and certainly not the most 'fun' sound. I have mine listed for sale in classifieds for around your budget, if you're interested. Personally I preferred the crazy bass of Legend X/Evo, but in technical ability Odin is superior
