Once again, I'm feeling that urge to hunt down a better IEM than what I currently have. I love the sound of the RE272, but sometimes I really wish there was more sub-bass and general oomph in the lower end. I recently tried out the T-Peos H-200, which has great bass but just didn't sound as natural as the Hifimans. I'm looking for something analytical like the RE272, but with better but not overpowering bass, and maybe slightly more texture in the mids. Sometimes the RE272 mids feel too smooth. The things I like most about the RE272 are its clarity, dynamics, timbre, and soundstage. I'd like to spend less than $400 (if such a thing is possible). Thanks!

In my experience, the only thing better than the RE272 is the Westone 4.

Is it possible for you to give a comparison between them? I'd like for the Westone 4 not to be too far away from the RE272 sound signature.
