On a trip to Madrid, I've lost my IEMs, I was using the Alpha & Delta AD01's. So I'm looking for a replacement.
I very much enjoyed these IEMs plus the detachable cable was great too. Although, in the 1,5 years of use the cable never broke down on me. Prior to this IEMs every IEM I had the cable broke within 3-6 months, all of these were
I'm looking to spend anywhere between 100-150 Euros (or Dollars) for the IEM's I'd go up to 200 if someone can convince me they're exponentially better. If they're less than 100 euros I wouldn't mind if they had a fixed cable, but if they are going to be more expensive, especially 150 or more I'd want them to have a detachable cable, just a trust issue. Oh, and lastly, I very much prefer wearing IEMs cable down.
I like doing too much research, so I've made a short-list up until now:
Yamaha EPH-M200 (I really liked the Yamaha EPH-100, they sounded amazing, I just didn't like the fit, they hurt my ears after 20-30 minutes, so these might solve all that)
1MORE Triple Driver (Raving reviews, that's pretty much all I know about these IEMs)
Alpha & Delta AD01 (my trustworthy IEMs, rest in piece wherever you are)
Shure SE215 (just maaaaaybe, I really dislike wearing the cable over the ear)
Accutone Gemini HD (Saw a great review on the frontpage of Head-Fi)
JBL Reflect Aware (Just because they work with a lightning connector)
For the headphones, I'm willing to spend a bit more, because of durability, Bluetooth, and design. I'd prefer them to be wireless and on-ear. I'd go up to around 400 Euros. I've been looking at some Beoplay offerings (H4 and H8) as well as the Master & Dynamic MH30 and some Philips (Philips M2L and M2BT)
The music I mostly listen to is hip-hop, I know it's a broad genre but I listen to a lot of different hip-hop (a lot of Stormzy, 6lack and Anfa Rose right now). I like a warm sound, or slightly V-shaped. I don't like a too bright sound.
I'm wondering if there is anything I should really look into apart from the ones I've mentioned.
