Apparently I've been living under a rock and these seem to be ideal for me. Corded ear solution. Lol, I was considering bluetooth earbuds before.
Which iem do you have?

Those have been around forever and they basically dominate the high-end earbud market. Personally I hate them, they are annoying to put in correctly, give a "plugged up" feeling, and basically block out sound around you like earplugs. That and they are quite unsanitary, going in and out of the ear canal all the time with ear wax and sweat being a thing. That said a lot of people seem to like them, but I would definitely try it out on a cheap pair before spending money on something expensive.

Lol same actually
Idk I just wanted something new and I don't have any good iems. Galaxy buds pro but that isn't really the same I just use those for portability.
I ordered these, not sure exactly when they will ship. Hopefully soon.

They seemed interesting and I wanted to try a totally new audio company. These are a collaboration between an audio reviewer I watch and the company moondrop. They come with a special usb c cable with some pre loaded specifically tuned eq profiles from the reviewer. Pretty well reviewed for the most part. Just playing the waiting game for now.

Yeah, but I'm that guy, pal
I am a slight audio snob
I've been using beyerdynamic dt990 pros since like 2012? Like a seriously long time now. Best cans I've ever owned.
I upgraded to beyerdynamic dt1990 pros. Love them. Insane sound. But not nearly as comfy as the older 990 version. So I just kept using the 990s for gaming, and the 1990s are just for music basically.
I can't find anything that is comfy enough to replace the legendarily comfy 990s.
I am hoping switching to a high quality iem is as comfy for longer sessions, and they will be easier to bring around if I want to listen to hifi audio when I travel
Also I just felt like treating myself straight upSometimes I park in handicap spaces, while handicap people make handicap faces

I have a mid-pair of IEM ($60) got them on sale, it is a linsoul brand
they sound good, only problem is I hate plugging my ears with headphones like that. then besides that you also need to find the right tips, the right tip size, and comfort. If not the sound you hear is a lot different then the sound someone else heard that gave it raving reviews. for example someone with IEM's that has ear tips that simply don't workout for their size ear will complain that the IEM have no bass what so ever, then another person will say these IEMs are too bassy.
on ear headphones don't really have that problem unless you got a weird ass shaped head
also the IEM is practically 70% chinese companies copying each other.*** Free Thinker Crew ***
