Hi Head-Fi members,
I am searching for a new IEM for a while now and figured it will certainly help getting the help of some experienced members here!
To give you some info about my search and what I own currently:
Looked at a large amount of reviews over the last days but can't decide at all... More on the criteria and what I had in mind below:
To throw some initial thoughts in this thread of IEMs that I had in mind (definitely not conclusive list but maybe helpful of what I looked into):
Again the list is definitely not conclusive and I am hoping to get some help from you on recommendations what could fit the profile.
In advance many thanks for the help

I am searching for a new IEM for a while now and figured it will certainly help getting the help of some experienced members here!
To give you some info about my search and what I own currently:
- currently own a Westone UM2 and Sennheiser IE80
- using the Sennheiser on a daily basis and really like it (bass tuned to almost minimum as I feel it still gives a good punch)
- Overall preferred sound signature would be more on the warm side I suppose and fun sounding (no expert on all terms being used regularly in the forum...)
Looked at a large amount of reviews over the last days but can't decide at all... More on the criteria and what I had in mind below:
- Build quality has to be very good (don't want to spend some serious money and have a broken cable connector or housing after a year)
- Sound quality from my limited understanding should be on the warmer side which sounds fun (not using it for professional monitoring etc.). Aim is to use it as an everyday IEM for a broad range of music (think Coldplay, Tropical House, Classic)
- Price range is very flexible and can be between $400 up to $1000. What I am really looking for is a quality product that fits my profile and where I am happy to spend some money on for the long term fun.
To throw some initial thoughts in this thread of IEMs that I had in mind (definitely not conclusive list but maybe helpful of what I looked into):
- CA Dorado
- CA Lyra II
- Oriveti Primacy
- Mini Audio Oriolus
- Noble Sage
- AKT8iE MKII
Again the list is definitely not conclusive and I am hoping to get some help from you on recommendations what could fit the profile.
In advance many thanks for the help
Best
