Hi I'm looking for your recommendations for an all rounder that is under €350 organic, very musical, fun, engaging and that conveys the emotions/feelings in the music, involving, toe tapping, also quite good in the mids.
Durability is also very important.
Thanks

If you don’t require a lot of treble sparkle and extension, I’d look into the Penon Orb. It is a specialist at bass and mids, and especially excels at vocals. It is very often referred to as ”musical and organic“. I personally have not heard it, but find those descriptors to fit it’s cousin, the Penon Volt.

Another midrange specialist is the Mangird Tea. It has a sub bass bias, so the lower mids stay very clean. The treble is definitely not overpowering, but it is well extended. The imaging is amazing also.

An all around wonderful IEM, with a single beryllium DD, is the KBEar Believe.

Another single DD IEM that is getting a lot of rave reviews, that just recently came out, is the FiiO FD5. It seems that mids are great, but it has more of a U-shaped tuning, so it isn’t a midrange specialist. I also haven’t heard this yet.

LZ A7.
All rounder is what I will call it, as it has 10 tuning signatures from V shaped to U shaped to neutral. So extremely versatile. Very good technicalities, fit and isolation. Timbre is good for a BA/piezo hybrid, but it may sound a bit artificial in the very high treble frequencies for violins. So timbre not as good as some DD sets, but still better than most hybrids I've heard.

Can be midcentric as per your post in certain tuning configs.
