You guys mind steering me a bit? I've been on the headphone track for about 10 years and have really figured out what I like.

Now I want to try some IEM but am finding the excessive options and no experience with them daunting.

I love nuetral, high resolution and a good image. Looking to try something new or used for under $800. Thinking maybe Campfire Jupiter?

I love the Denon D2000 and today have the 7200. I love their frequency response. HD800 flat out hurts my ears even with SDR.

Oh, and comfort is king. Main reason I want to try them is because I'm so sensitive to clamping pressure.

Thanks in advance!

IMO, if comfort is you need, CA BA IEMs are a hit or miss. Their form factor may cause ear lobe fatigue or not depending on the shape of your ears.

If you want the COMFORT along with neutral, high resolution and good image, I'd put my money to Empire Ears EVR at $700 USD
