SO as my journey to nirvana goes on, i keep buying stuff that gets me wowed, moving from shure215 to the Westone w80, the money spent on my IEMs are well worth it, unlike my spending on DAPs and DACs which, in my honest opinion, is something not very satisying. SO now i'm ready to shell out some money once and for all. I listen to all kind of music except for Metal/Rock and its subgenre. Mainly EDM, HIPHOP, folk, jazz. So i'm looking into the 64audio u18t or Zeus XR. I'm open to other suggestions

Campfire Audio Vega or Atlas (Have not have the chance to try this). Or Campfire Audio Dorado

really depends on the sound signature you want. idk about the w80 but the se215 is warm and bassy right? I've read that the es80 (custom version of w80) is already very high resolution with only the u18t beating it by a hair. the u18t is more geared towards neutrality though. as for the Zeus, I've never heard it but people often say it's very mid focused

The true endgame for me if I want the most effortless and uncolored music reproduction in an IEM is the Shure KSE1500.

Stax SR 003 MK2 beats every IEM including the KSE1500.

The STAX amp is battery powered right? I wish they were there at CanJam

U18t.

yes but they are not very portable and from what i read very engineer like sounding which i might not like, as im very sensitive to high treble/sibilance

U18 Tzar will suit your taste as it’s not sibilant whatsoever when I demoed it

If money is no object the LCD i4’s are hard to beat. Did not have the Tia Fourte or Zeus’s on hand to demo against but would be hard to decide I’m sure.
