Hey fellow Head-Fi-People,
 
I look to upgrade my current "portable" experience.
 
Budget: 500$ (can go to 600 if there is a serious upgrade)
Source: Wileyfox Storm with FLAC or V0 MP3s (I have 2 separate SD-Cards)
Music: All kinds of Metal (nearly every subgenre), Classical (currently I enjoy a lot of Shostakovich, Rachmaninov), Chiptune (MASTER BOOT RECORD is king)
I would say Metal 80%, Classical 15%, Chiptune 4%, Random Stuff 1%.
Sound-specifics: Large Soundstage, a clear and real sound is important to me. (Sorry I suck in describing the sound I like)
 
Any recommendation is welcome. Currently I tend to go with the Vibro Labs Aria or the Noble Audia Savant.

Try the 64Audio U3

I have the U12, and I am endlessly impressed with how grand the soundstage is. The U3 will have the same soundstage, since it comes from the ADEL & APEX Ear Lens tech, which all their IEMs use now.

This is also the most natural-sounding IEMs I've ever heard, which I attribute to the ADEL module.

Thanks for that rec. PinkyPowers.
 
I will check them out and add them to my potential candidates list.
