Hi,
I was an active follower of the head-fi community till two years back. I have Shure S530 and Triple Fi 10 universal IEMs and a iBasso D2 portable amp. Since then I have been traveling extensively on photographic assignments to remote locations in Africa, South-East Asia and South America. Life has been wonderfully fulfilling and I have no regrets. However, as a result I have no idea how the world of IEMs have progressed since then.
I have enjoyed my portable gear during my travels so much that I am very keen to know what you guys recommend as a good next step in portable sound quality based on current technology and products. I see custom fit IEMs seem to have become popular but I do not want to go that route since one of the great things has been my ability to share the wonderful sound quality with people I meet during my travels (Carry tons of foam tips so no hygiene issues! )
So in short, looking for recommendations on the best universal IEMs for someone currently using Triple Fis and Shure 530. Pricing is unlikely to be an issue if the performance warrants it, though of course high performing but economical would be great but based on my experiences a bit of a unicorn in head-fi land!. Looking forward to all your suggestions and advice.
Thanks!
