IEM suggestion needed!

[ckhurana]

Hi,
I have been using my trusty Tennmak Pro Dual Dynamic Driver IEMs since 7-8 years now. Other than going through a couple of MMCX cables, I had to change nothing.

Recently, the right side IEM has gone a bit low (a change of cable does not sort the issue), so I am on the lookout for a replacement.

Your suggestions are welcome as per my use case below -

Usage -

1. With laptop via the standard 3.5mm jack
2. Android usage on S20FE via the USB-C DAC (Abigail Pro).
3. Should be resilient enough to handle long walks and active use.

Music genres -

1. Standard Rock / Pop
2. Trance / EDM
3. Instrumental / Soundtracks (Hans Zimmer and so on...)

Sound stage -

1. Neutral but bass friendly
2. Accurate with natural lows and treble.
3. Should be immersive enough / support a wide soundstage - especially for watching movies.
4. I will be using custom EQ on PowerAmp so accurate response appreciated!

Design -

1. Prefer replaceable cables (2 pin or MMCX version) with Mic/remote.
2. Also shall use them with FiiO - BTR11 (so need a compatible short cable)

Cost - Preferably under INR 5-6K / USD 60.

Please suggest a suitable upgrade preferably available in India!

Thanks,
CK

Check out the Sennheiser IE200. Slightly above your budget but dynamic, balanced and musical, great value for money. Bought it a month back and thoroughly enjoying using it with the Shanling M1 Plus DAP. It scales up well with the source.
